PWR 2SC: Writing & Rhetoric 2: Are We There Yet?: The Rhetoric of Mobility
What is the difference between "refugee" and "migrant" or, for that matter, between "traveler," "immigrant," "tourist," and "alien"? When we begin to think about the politics of these categories, we start to see how rhetorical situations shape our understandings of our places in the world, and what constrains or enables us as we move around in it. In this class, we will explore questions about mobility through writing, research, and oral presentation. We will practice strategies for persuasive, engaging writing and speaking and watch speeches by activists and artists, read up on the history of ¿mobs,¿ and discuss whether a sit-in is actually a form of movement.

PWR 2SI: Writing & Rhetoric 2: The Rhetoric of Privilege
Prerequisite:
