AME 430 - Embodied Social Justice: Racialized Trauma and Cultural Transformation

3 CR

What does it feel like to be centered, grounded, and in your body? How does this state allow us to heal and hold space for others to heal? In this course, we will explore theoretical foundations in the interdisciplinary field of ESJ, which combines and expands critical race theories, and intersectional feminist theory along with trauma studies, transformative justice, Somatics, neuroscience, and so much more. We will learn embodied practices for self-care and critical consciousness through mind/body healing practices like yoga and meditation. (This course is cross-listed with INT 430  and WGS 430 .)

Prerequisite(s): Any AME, INT, or WGS course or permissionn of instructor.
