WGSS 26.03 Queer History in America
How have historical processes produced distinct queer sexual practices and identities over time? This course engages 300 years of a history that often evaded the historical record or was deliberately purged from it and asks how more traditional topics of U.S. historical inquiry—immigration, citizenship, economic organization, intellectual and artistic production, racialization, formal politics, law, religious practice—can yield new insights when queer history is included as a legitimate dimension of analysis.
