GERM 109 SC - Your Heimat is Our Nightmare: Marginalized and Minoritized Germans

This class will discuss “Heimat” as a tool for both aggressive identity-building and rigorous exclusion. We will explore German notions of race and Whiteness and learn from refugee stories about the impossibility of ever truly arriving in Germany. We will hear from LGBTQ activists and from Germans with “Migrationshintergrund”. Film, art, literature, essays, radio plays, theory.
