ANTH 334 - Queer Politics and Pleasures Queerness speaks to bodily pleasures, longing, intimacies, affects, and desires that present an outside to cis-heteronormativity. Focusing on ethnography and history, this course examines how such sensations occur towards such lofty ambitions as sexual fulfillment, self-making, political uprisings, and world making. Exploring works in anthropology, art, film, television, music, and literature, this course tackles the intersections of queer theory, activism, and practices of everyday life as shaped across a range of cultures, places, and times. Central attention to race, gender, class, and the ongoing legacies of colonialism frame the course.
