WMST 316 - LGBTQ Politics & Policy (3). |
Description: Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans*, and Queer (LGBTQ) Politics & Policy offers a critical examination of social construction of sexual and gender identities in the U.S. The politico-cultural policing and sanctioning of sexual and gender variant folk will be situated in historical and contemporary contexts. Current issues--e.g., HIV rights, trans* equality, LGBTQ inclusion in religious spaces, adoption and foster care policy, theories of LGBTQ political activism and organizing--will provide both a historical understanding of the LGBTQ equity movement as well as the pressing policymaking towards and politics of this community in the present day.
Notes: Offered periodically. Cross-listed with PLSC 316.
