This course explores perspectives from the humanities (Indigenous, African-American, and Buddhist) and the sciences about what it means to flourish: an existence filled with wellness, purpose, connection, and justice. Human flourishing is considered in relation to theories of social and spiritual liberation given global legacies of colonialism, such as structural inequity and racialization. Students will engage in experiential learning where their bodies, minds, and communities are engaged as somatic laboratories and fields of exploration. Same as ETHN 2020.
