Description
This course seeks to explore the overlapping experiences and histories that have shaped Puerto Ricans and Dominicans throughout the United States. We will place particular emphasis on New York as a site that has both influenced and been influenced by each group. Through an interdisciplinary approach—history, sociology, anthropology, linguistics, and documentaries—we will investigate the ways in which Puerto Ricans and Dominicans create life outside of their islands.
