STUNNING: University Offering A Course On Beyonce Called "Politicing Beyonce"

I cannot make any sense out of this but then, George town University already has a class called "The
Sociology of Hip-Hop: The Urban Theodicy of Jay-Z,"
which focuses on Beyoncé's rapper husband.

Following the above, Rutgers University has decided
to offer a course on the study of Beyonce, who is one
of the world's most scrutinized pop stars…

The Department of Women's and Gender Studies at Rutgers University is offering a course called
"Politicizing Beyonce."

Kevin Allred, a doctoral student who is teaching the class, tells the university's online news site that he is using Beyonce's career as a way to explore American
race, gender and sexual politics.

The class supplements an analysis of Beyonce's videos and lyrics with readings from Black feminists. Allred says he's seeking to help students think more critically
about media consumption.
