PHIL-H251 Honors Philosophy of Race & Gender

Prejudice of many kinds, such as racism and sexism, is so embedded in our social institutions, and is so "traditional" and pervasive that we often fail to notice it. In this course, we will deal with the history and nature of racism and sexism, as well as with possible solutions to these problems, including affirmative action and busing. We will also discuss homosexuality, pornography, and sex roles. 1 term - 4 credits. Normally offered alternate years. C a
