THP 482: Theatre For Social Change
THP 598 Special Topics: Theatre For
Social Change
Interactive theatre techniques (e.g.,
Boal, drama therapy, playback theatre) to examine and combat institutional,
social, cultural, interpersonal, and personal oppressions. Lecture &
laboratory, 3 credit hours.
The Department of Theatre will offer
this as a General Studies course (even though the published Schedule of Classes
doesn't include the GS footnote, it's really a GS for Cultural Diversity in the
United States, as stated in the ASU Catalog).
This has also been known as the former "Theatre of the
Oppressed" class, and offers students a highly participatory experience in
learning about the "-isms":
sexism, heterosexism, racism, etc.

HUM 513/HUM 494/WST 598/ENG 598/ENG 494: Queer Studies
An
examination of recent research relating to homoerotic identities as that
research impinges on the representation of sexual desire in cultural
production. We will consider major
theoretical documents and key analyses of literature and related textual
productions as to not only how homoerotic desire is presented as a thematics,
but also how the larger textual tradition can be read from the perspective of
the "disruption" of the straight world view. Of particular interest will be the
relationship between feminism and questions of sexual identity, issues in
cross-culturalism, sexual identity and subalternity, and related questions like
pornography, censorship, and cultural resistance. The focus of the cultural texts to be read will be on dramatic
and performance theater; there will be video recording of actual performances.

WST 498: Genders, Sexualities and Human Rights
This course addresses women’s human rights in a global
context. We will examine how women have responded to political violence in
their communities and countries; how women’s activism has contributed to
rethinking military conflict and international relations; the roles of women in
religious fundamentalist communities; the global sex industry; women’s
responses to globalization and colonialism; “mothers movements”; and how gender
identity and sexual orientation are understood in human rights law and
discourse. Particular attention will be given to how international issues
affect our lives here in the United States, and why it is important to make
connections with women’s political struggles in countries as diverse as India,
Peru, Uganda, South Africa, Afghanistan, Argentina, Israel, Eastern Europe, and
American Indian nations.
