Looking for an interesting, upper-level course to take this spring? Check out ANTH 5395: Race, Racialization, and Health taught by Dr. Sarah Williams.

This seminar takes a transdisciplinary approach to understanding racialization as a process and tool that is inextricable from the formation and continuation of medicine and public health. Through a critical medical anthropology lens, students will engage with studies of race science, medical racism, medical experimentation, genomics and epigenetics, and structural violence in/of health care and public health to examine how capitalism, international health and medical markets, governments, colonialism, and im/migration shape the ways that disease burden and differential access to healthcare are distributed across populations.

The class will run on Thursdays from 12:30-3pm.
