<strong>ILR</strong>LR 2060: Writing Seminar in Law – Perspectives on Disability: Literature, Culture and Policy<br />
Sophomore Writing 3.0 HRS LET ONLY<br />
15359 LEC 001 TR 0125-0240P IVS TBD A. Weiner<br />
This advanced writing seminar is designed to allow students to engage in a critical, in-depth study of the way in which people<br />
with disabilities and the disability experience are represented in an array of interdisciplinary texts. Drawing from literature, film,<br />
art, historical studies, medical journals and legal texts, we will explore the implications of disability in culture and policy,<br />
particularly as it impacts ideas of labor and the workplace. This seminar will question ideas about what constitutes a “normal” or<br />
“able” body, seeking instead to respond to global literary, philosophical, cultural and legal articulations of physical, mental,<br />
emotional, and sensory differences. We will engage various debates in disability studies in order to challenge assumptions and<br />
posit new models of (re)defining disability socially and politically. We will additionally allow for an intensive focus on the<br />
development of critical thought and reasoning in both oral and written communication, as well as in a final research project that<br />
engages in interdisciplinary, qualitative and quantitative analysis.<br />

Sophomore Writing 3.0 HRS LET ONLY<br />
15362 LEC 003 TR 1140A-1255P IVS TBD V. Martinez-Matsuda<br />
Explores the varied experiences of ethnic Mexican workers in the United States from the early Industrial Period to the<br />
contemporary debates concerning the transnational effects of migrant labor. We will examine both the formal and informal ways<br />
ethnic Mexican men and women have organized at a regional, national, and international level, and in both rural and urban<br />
settings, for fair employment and civil rights. Close attention will be given to several historical factors that have helped shape<br />
Mexican American working-class identity, including the role of: community-based unionism; intra-ethnic tensions related to<br />
generational differences, citizenship status, etc.; U.S. and Mexican state intervention in repressing and/or aiding workers’<br />
movements; and cross-border organizing, beginning with its early radical traditions.<br />
