CRIT 327 Justice

3 credits 45.0 hours
300 level undergraduate course

How can art impact society through engaging issues around justice? How can art become a liberatory practice that employs creativity as a path towards justice? How have artists from across disciplines created works by engaging in processes informed by desires for concrete and imaginative change? We will examine these questions and others by unpacking how diverse thinkers and artists invested in disrupting oppressive forces engage creativity. We will examine topics like empowerment, hope, critical thinking, empathy, meaning making, intersectionality, and more.
