Description

This course explores the social construction of "youth" in the United States at the turn of the 20th/21st century. A central aim of the course is to question the taken-for-granted assumptions of "youth' and to explore the experiences of youth through an intersectional approach. Possible topics covered include how youth experience sexuality, public spaces, schools, the labor market, violence, and activism.

Registration will begin July 31st
