COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This course takes a multidisciplinary approach to consider how we use drugs in our society and how they may vary from culture to culture. The course will explore how drugs can create subcultures, how they have been used to reinforce racial stereotypes and maintain racial discrimination and how they affect the lives of men and women differently. It also considers how drugs create an altered consciousness that humans have been seeking for thousands of years.
