PAST 240 - Philosophy of Race and Gender4 credits This course will examine the ways in which pholosophical reflections have attempted to come to terms with race and gender. We will think critically about some questions: Are race and gender natural biological facts, and if not, are they real? Are they socially constructed, and if so, in what sense? What role do race and gender play in organizing interpersonal and social structures? When race and gender become oppressive through racist and sexist pactices, how can one strive to overcome these injustices? We will read and examine arguments by modern and contemporary philosophers who address these questions. Same as WGST 240. C- or better in or WRTG 115 . CLA-Diversity US, CLA-Writing Intensive
