SPAN 3475
Environmental Justice in Latin America

Course information provided by the 2022-2023 Catalog.

This course examines how Latin American activists, artists, and writers expose and respond to the racialized inequities of environmental harm. We will study how narratives of social justice and environmental well-being intersect, and how present-day environmental crisis emerges from the legacies of colonialism. Authors, artists, and filmmakers may include: Homero Aridjis, Berta Caceres, Carolina Caycedo, Pope Francis, Juan Carlos Galeano, Patricicio Guzman, Chico Mendes, and Bartolina Xixa.
