HIS3013 ST: Civil Rights & Social Movements

What forces came together in the twentieth century to support dynamic and sustained movements for civil rights? How did the civil rights struggles of one group overlap with and influence the momentum of another? These are two of the “big questions” this course will address as it examines the decades of struggle for recognition, inclusion, and equality for marginalized populations in America. As this course examines the diverse origins of civil rights struggles for various populations within the United States, it will focus specifically on the Civil Rights Movement era, in which various struggles-African American civil rights, the disability rights movement, organized labor in the 20th century, and the women’s liberation movement-gained visibility, occupied center stage in U.S. social, political, and cultural politics, and acted collectively to challenge the status quo of the powerful political, social, economic, and cultural systems that resisted this change.
