Queer Studies Course Descriptions
Summer 2016
WOMST 500 Black Sexualities
Section ZA: Distance –Tushabe
This course investigates the intersection of race, gender, and sexuality. The course will
explore complex relations among identity categories such as lesbian, gay, bisexuality, and
transgender in relation to class, gender, ethnicity, religion, and nationality. The course will be
divided into three central parts: the sexualization of race and the racialization of sexuality; sociocultural perspectives on race and sexuality; and queering the Color Line and histories of
oppression, including colonialism. We will read some of the most influential authors in Gender
Theory, Queer Theory, Race Theory, Sexuality Studies, and Transgender studies.
