This course will investigate the power of language that shapes ideas with words that impact culture, politics, social sciences, art, economy, education, etc., locally, nationally and internationally. Language is a landscape of coincidence and disagreement upon which critical thinking is developed. This class will explore ideas, communication, and strategies of rhetoric, to discern the multilevel effects of mass media while marginalizing dissent. This course will formulate urgent questions regarding prejudice, justice, institutional violence, beauty, ugliness, conflict and the ever-present effort to design, claim and observe social and human rights.
