Course description

This course explores creative, audio-based approaches to promoting, enacting, and theorizing social change. It asks how do creative forms of advocacy, like podcasts or audio documentaries, promote empathy, spark social awareness, and disrupt inequality? Students investigate various topics in social inequality including mass incarceration, institutional racism, and gender discrimination; gain technical skills needed to produce original audio stories (for example, podcasts, soundwalks, and audio installations); and produce an original audio story that features and critiques a form of social inequality.
