This was a very eye-opening class because of the depth of material Essig coverers within a short period of time and because of the discussions where students were encouraged to present their unadulterated perspectives and experiences. The course material ranged from movies like "Gone with the Wind" to the book "The History of White People" allowing students to explore multiple mediums and engage with whatever resonated most. There were no tests but attendance became a big deal because students skipped a lot. There were 2 projects both group work, but ultimately low stakes because the topic was "making midd less white" and you could literally choose anything. Very valuable material in this course, not too demanding, will make you think about the world around you. 10/10 recommend.

It was a very nice class with great peers and a professor. We have constant writing, but it is always fun, and we get lots of feedback from both the professor and peers. Discussions are thoughtful. I recommend taking this class!

This course has very interesting content, but it did get repetitive by the end of the course. The midterm was a take-home written exam. It wasn't too hard, but the grading was definitely more harsh than expected. The final was an essay and was graded more easily. Other than that, the course was just daily readings and a weekly reading response. I would definitely take if you are interested in the subject.
