Aside from the English, every group of immigrants has experienced some degree of exclusion or discrimination that temporarily (or permanently) transformed them into “minorities”. This course examines the ethnic experiences of those groups (and various religious, racial, gender and sexual minorities) to see how their experiences have shaped and changed western society. Students who take this course should gain a much better understanding of why various minority groups act as they do, allowing you to live and work more effectively in a multicultural environment.
