Health, Reproduction, and Inequality in Africa and the African Diaspora.

Catalog description

This graduate seminar examines the ways that reproductive healthcare access and health itself are shaped by social, racial, and economic inequalities in our society and others. Of particular interest will be the ways that negotiations over reproduction shed light on broader social conflicts, exposing the importance of centering questions of reproduction in social theory. The geographic focus of this course is Africa and the United States.
