CHST 185B CH - Narratives of the U.S.-Mexico Borderlands

This course explores diverse processes affecting U.S.-Mexico border culture and the way cultural products - in particular, fiction - critically respond to these processes. Twentieth-Century border narratives allow us to explore and examine issues of race, immigration, gender, community formation, economic deprivation, and the urban experience through the critical lens of geographical theories on space and place, cultural studies, critical race studies, and from a human rights perspective.
