Spring 2024 - Loved him and the content of this class, which is Sociology of Global Mexico. Class consisted of midterm/final & two short reaction papers. Also super accommodating, as he provided 10 possible extra credit points at the end of the quarter, given the protests and repression of free speech that occurred during the spring quarter of 2024.

Winter 2024 - Class consisted of a midterm, group podcast and final. Dr. Hofnung is Israeli from Tel Aviv, so her perspective is limited to her experiences. Therefore, you will hear denials of genocide being taught in this course, and Orientalist tropes such as portraying Palestine as a backwards society and the weaponization of LGBTQ+ rights, women’s rights, etc. I personally wouldn’t recommend this class, but it may help broaden your perspective into the way setter colonialists think/operate.
