I teach a range of classes at the graduate and undergraduate level. Not all of these are offered every year, so please check the Geography department website to see what I will be offering:
GEOG 423: Social Geographies/Bricks as Memory: A collaboration between UNC students, Culture Mill, Southern Futures @ CPA, and the Marian Cheek Jackson Center. This is an ongoing partnership exploring the relationship between cultural landscape, somatic experience, and art in the context of historical and contemporary geographies of race as they relate to the UNC campus. Several outputs are available on the CPA-Southern Futures website, and will be updated here as we continue our work.
GLBL 700: Global Studies, Theory and Method: This is a core course for the Global Studies MA, including students in the REEES focus. If you are an interested MA student not enrolled in the Global Studies MA, please contact me to ask about enrollment. This course is taught in the Spring semester.
GEOG 424: Geographies of Religion: This course considers the theoretical and empirical dimensions of religion from a geographical perspective. The course introduces the key theories linking space, place, and religion and helps students apply these new theoretical tools to examine some of the pressing issues in the contemporary study of religion.
GEOG 125: Cultural Landscapes: This course helps students see, research, and write about everyday cultural landscapes. It has been called ‘outside the box’ by many. You will never look at the world again in the same way after taking this class.
GEOG 130: Development and Inequality: Global Perspectives: I teach this (and the First Year Launch version) in rotation with other faculty. The course focuses on the different approaches to understanding global inequality, and the consequences of this understanding for how we consume, work, vote, and live. The course is also designed to introduce first-year students to writing in the social sciences.
