LLAS 280BBrazil: People & Culture2

This course takes students for two weeks to coastal Salvador, Bahia – Brazil’s third largest city and its first colonial capital and one week to , Rio de Janeiro – a city is also known for its sprawling favelas (shanty towns). Salvador played a key role in Brazil’s historical, multi-racial and multi-cultural formation and is also one of the most important points of reference within the African Diaspora. Through coursework, workshops, tours, site visits to local NGO’s, and excursions, the course will explore the historical and contemporary constructions of race, class, and gender inequality in Brazil. The course will also explore the ways that Afro- Brazilians have used culture and social movements to push back and rework inequality and structures of domination. Students will stay with host families and take basic Portuguese. Prerequisites: None Equivalent courses: COLG 280N

LLAS 280CPolitics, Society and Culture in Cuba2

Study in Cuba provides a unique opportunity to learn about a nation’s past and present. It remains a mystery to many and hostile relations between the governments of the United States and Cuba have sharply limited contact between the two countries for almost forty years. Current U.S. law still restricts the travel of U.S. citizens to the island nation. However, this course, which will obtain legal permission to be in Cuba, is a unique opportunity to study Cuban history and the political and economic system of one of the world’s few remaining socialist countries. Students do reading on the historic background of the area under study and then focus on contemporary political, social, and economic issues through meetings with resource people: professors, political and religious leaders, and grass roots organizers. The course will be conducted in English but knowledge of Spanish will enhance appreciation of out stay in Cuba and study of Cuban history, politics, and society. Offered for A-F Grading only. Equivalent courses: COLG 280H, LLAS 280A
