The Migrant Narrative in U.S. History

Critical Conversations Seminar Undergraduate PUGET - Puget Sound

Course Description

Migration has been one of the most consistent and elemental themes in United States history. Relying heavily on the first-hand accounts of migrants, this course uses a case study approach to show how the experiences of internal migrants, refugees, and recent undocumented people help explain how migration has shaped the United States in countless ways. A key focus of the class is to analyze how these migrant narratives have been shaped by foreign policy, ethnicity, race, gender, refugee classifications, and other related factors.
