Default UCLA Extension Course: "Whiteness in US History...."

Check out this nifty on line UCLA Extension course set for January 2010: Understanding "whiteness" in American history and culture. If you don't already have enough white guilt or if you're a non-white who still does not already harbor pathological hatred of white people and white culture and you have an extra $535.00, you can sign up for this nifty class and get academic credit for learning to hate white people because they're responsible for all the evils of the world.

Eurocentric American history often masks the saliency of how the formation of Whiteness ultimately supports mechanisms of race and racism. This course outlines the historical development of Whiteness and critically analyzes the sociological results that stem from its birth. Segmented into three modules, the course provides a historical framework of the birth of Whiteness; explores Whiteness (namely, White Supremacy and White Privilege) and how they impact people of color and uphold racial hierarchy; and, in acknowledging that the relevance of history is inextricably tied to modern society, draws from liberatory, transformative, and emancipatory praxis, to engage in a REconstruction of anti-racist white racial identity. Throughout the course students are expected to critically engage in dialogue and identify and challenge their preconceived racial assumptions. For technical requirements click here.
