Inventing (and Reinventing) Whiteness: The Origins, Transformations, and Future of Race in the US

This course will study the historical origins of whiteness, its transformations over time, and the role it has played (and continues to play) as an organizing force of political, economic, cultural, and domestic life within America. Further, this course will draw on critical intellectual traditions within African American and Africana Studies in order to imagine the future(s) of race, including abolitionist futures where democratic modes of social organization challenge, displace, and undo racialized hierarchies.
