Workshop: „Health and Race in American History“ (11.6.)
1. Juni 2026
von Markus Trapp — abgelegt in: Ausstellungen und Veranstaltungen — 141 Aufrufe
Donnerstag, 11.6. und Freitag, 12.6., jeweils ganztägig, Ossietzky-Forum.
The workshop explores the intersections and overlaps of citizenship, race and health in the United States between the mid-nineteenth century to the early twentieth century. It will examine the importance of health and how it was negotiated and constructed in medical, cultural and political contexts by focusing on questions like: how were public health discourses intertwined with racial ideologies? How did ideas about health help shaping debates about citizenship during a time of social and political conflicts? The workshop will also look at how literary and cultural texts reflected these racialized understandings of health to answer these questions.
