HIS 327-01 - The Civil Rights Movement

4 credits (Spring)

This seminar offers students an opportunity to research and write about the Civil Rights era. Students will be introduced to recent scholarship that will compel them to re-think fundamental aspects of the Civil Rights Movement in the United States: when it took place, who participated, what it was over, and how the Civil Rights Movement continues to inform modern life in the United States. By the end of the semester, students will have produced a research paper based on a combination of primary and secondary sources (20-25 pages).

Prerequisite: HIS 100 and one 200-level history course.
Instructor: Lacson
