Inclusion, Diversity, Equity & Accessibility

In this asynchronous online history course, we will explore race and organized labor in US History through an analysis of three 21st-century films. To understand race theory we will study excerpts of Michael Omi and Howard Winant’s 1986 book Racial Formation in the United States; for an overview of labor history, we will study Jeffrey Helgeson’s essay “American Labor and Working-Class History, 1900-1945.” The three films we will review include 10,000 Black Men Named George (2002), Birth of a Nation (2016), and Working: What We Do All Day (2023).
