larry isaac is the gertrude conaway vanderbilt professor of sociology and editor of the american sociological review<\/em>. in soc 216, he guides upper level undergraduates toward a greater understanding of social movements in the 1960s. during the teaching visit, larry\u2019s students will be considering the nashville civil rights movement, which provides a vivid depiction of racial difference under the \u201cjim crow\u201d regime of racial segregation, subordination, and exploitation and introduces the dangerous, high-risk activism undertaken by\u00a0nashville students that served as a model for the rest of the southern civil rights movement. in the post-visit discussion, we will discuss how larry\u2019s combination of discussion, lecture, and documentary film footage provides a model of how to approach teaching issues of difference and power.<\/p>\n date: september 2, 2014
