American and Ethnic Studies (AES)

University of Washington - Bothell
How have culture, power, and dissent shaped the diverse populations of the United States in relation to the larger world? American & Ethnic Studies investigates the social forces, political institutions, and cultural productions that have created the United States and shaped what it means to be an "American." This major will help you develop a critical understanding of the categories that have shaped the emergence and reproduction of systems of power defined in relation to national citizenship. We pay particular attention to diverse and intersecting categories of race, place, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, class, nationality, and ability. Our courses examine the relationships between power, inequality, resistance, social and environmental justice, and difference. Using various scholarly methods, American & Ethnic Studies makes connections between past and present conditions. We educate students in historical and social inquiry, textual analysis and interpretation, and critical theory and practice.
