dc.description | The history of sneakers is long and nebulous, shifting from being objects upholding and allowing for the performance of sports and fitness to the fickle trends of fashion and style. This course explores how sneakers exist as cultural talismans fomenting new understandings of modern material culture and the vulnerability and reliability of certain bodies therewithin. Over the course of a semester, students will interrogate the complicated and always political of sneakers as a thing which simultaneously heralds capitalism’s demand for a specific brand of global pluralism while also representing more insular and regional identity formations. | en_US |
