ISP 115 Voices of Migration: Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Global Movement
3 hours
Migration is one of the central facts of human history. As a species, people move. They move to escape, to embrace, to learn and to take advantage. They move for opportunity and often to change something fundamental about our lives. This class will look at the issue of migration in essays, films, photographs, art, and history and think about it through an interdisciplinary and personal lens. We will read, discuss, and analyze a wide variety of different migratory experiences and we will research and piece together those migratory journeys that have been important to our own lives.
