SUMR 255 Travel Writing: Exploring Places, Perspectives, and Social Justice
Travel writing is about seeing and seeing again from different perspectives. Students embark on a quest for self-discovery, bringing alive their experience in a special world. They explore people, culture, and history in places they know and places they want to visit someday. They investigate regional concerns and raise awareness about inequities and systemic injustice prevalent in such areas as public health, infrastructure, housing, food security, and education.
