Can ordinary people affect U.S. foreign policy? This course looks at challenges to U.S. foreign policy by working-class movements, communities of color, lesbian and gay liberation activists, artists, and others. We focus on activism that sought to foster solidarity with the people of Vietnam, India, Taiwan, Iran, Palestine, South Africa, El Salvador, and Nicaragua.
