This course explores the history, geography, and stories of the people whose lives and identities have been influenced by borders.
Via literature, film, art, and music, students have the opportunity to hear from those who have often been marginalized. Students will examine borders of all types—physical, cultural, and psychological—and analyze how borders make an impact on individuals and groups, particularly in terms of Latin American populations.
The course is also a journey in self-discovery because it asks students to consider their perspectives and experiences, and apply the ideas and themes in the literature to their own life and understanding of the world.
