This course introduces theories and practices central to the relationship between communication and race/ethnicity. Students gain theoretical and practical understanding of the opportunities and obstacles that exist for racialized equity-deserving groups. Students are prompted to recognize their positionality in relation to race and how communication can be meaningfully used toward anti-racist ends.

u/Whatisgoingonwtf: “I was just wondering, I was trying to get into SPCOM226, but it says all the spots are reserved spots. There are a million classes so I was wondering if there was anyway of getting into the class? The instructor isn't determined yet so I can't contact them for an override yet.”
