Fall 2023 - I loved this class and the professor was awesome, easy A class where you learn a lot of meaningful material on the obstacles that people of color and other underrepresented communities (women, lgbtq) have had to go through. No midterm, no final, just a few papers to write but he gives creative freedom with these which make them easier and funner to do. He is the sweetest and I recommend taking him if you are on the fence.
