This course explores race and ethnicity's role in American politics. In this class, students will focus on the 'big questions' surrounding race: What is race? Can race be measured—and, if so, how? How have questions about race and ethnicity shaped American legal, social, cultural, and political institutions? How have Americans thought about race and immigration throughout the 21st century, and how have these opinions shaped political engagement and behavior?
