Course Description | What is antisemitism? How and in what contexts has it appeared in the United States? How, if at all, does it resemble other forms of white nationalism? This course addresses these questions through analysis of anti-Jewish discrimination in the United States between the colonial period and the present, exploring different thematic dimensions of anti-Jewish bigotry, discrimination, and violence. Probing anti-Jewish practices and discourses, you will learn to identify representations of Jews as “others;” determine the origins and sources of anti-Jewish sentiments and policies; analyze similarities and differences between anti-Jewish bigotry and racism and xenophobia; and consider how, if at all, expressions of antisemitism have changed over time in the United States. |
