Description: ENG 118 focuses on rhetorical analysis of written, digital, and visual texts on U.S. ethnic diversity issues, laying the foundation for continued study of how race and ethnicity intersect with aspects of class, gender, power, politics, history, religion, environment, and culture, and how race and ethnicity influence the experiences of racial and ethnic minorities in a growing globalized community.
