Kemi Fuentes-George
Lots of readings, can skim. Kemi is an excellent, excellent professor but will let you come to your own conclusions. Great foundational class for Politics. Exams are timed short-essay, not too difficult but require minor preparation. At the end of the course, you assign yourself a grade and then defend it. Kemi has veto/approval rights but will generally respect your self-grade.
The course was an amazing class, filled with great material. Kemi is great professor and gently enjoy the material. But, be aware the class material is VERY dense and will take awhile to grasp your mind around. The class only consists of three papers and a research paper, but it is very discussion heavy. Be ready to get cold called and talk about the material in depth. Overall great class.

Took this Fall 2025. Kem's teaching style is hit or miss for many, but I've taken several classes with him and always had a good experience. I've always felt very intellectually stimulated in his classes compared to others, and I feel like his discussions and assignments really help to process and put the course material in its context. This course specifically covers a very broad range of topics in relation with Environmental Justice, so there will definitely be something for anyone interested in the area generally.
