HIST 663 - History of New York City


3 Credit(s)

Description:
“The Big Apple.” “Gotham”. Whatever you choose to call it, New York City has played an outsized role in American history. This reading-intensive, discussion-based seminar will explore the history, from the time of the Dutch colonists to the politics of urban renewal in the post-World-War-Two years. Through a variety of readings by historians and journalists, we will examine issues of race and ethnicity, capital and labor, culture, politics, and religion.
