Associate in Arts in Chicana/o and Latina/o Studies ( Laney college)

Instruction in Chicana/o and Latina/o Studies is interdisciplinary and comparative in scope. Chicana/o and Latina/o Studies curriculum draws from the social and behavioral sciences as well as the humanities and the arts. The program offers a variety of courses regarding the study of Latin America and the Chicana/o and Latina/o experience in the United States. The aim of Chicana/o and Latina/o Studies is to support students in developing a critical consciousness and an understanding of the social, political, cultural, and economic forces that have shaped the histories and current day realities of the Latina/o Diaspora. Our studies are grounded in the principles of social justice and self-determination of oppressed communities. To achieve this, our program centers the knowledges, epistemologies and critical thinking produced by racially and sexually oppressed subjects, and we endeavor to examine the entangled intersectionality of racialized sexuality, gender, and class in complex socio-historical processes.
