TRS 173 - Colonialism, Race & Religion


Upper Division

Prerequisites
Prerequisite(s) and/or corequisite(s): TRS 097  or TRS 189 .

Ways of classifying the human person, including race, developed within the histories of European colonialism. These forms of social classification profoundly shaped the idea of “America,” and continue to shape the present historical situation in the United States. To understand better our immediate historical situations, it is crucial to have a deeper understanding of how colonialism, constructions of race, and religion worked together in the formation of the North Atlantic context out of which the United States emerged. In this course, we will specifically locate the reality of the United States and sets of relationship within the North Atlantic World within the history of European colonialism.
