MXP-173 Multimodal Interpretive Strategy: Seeking Abraham

This mostly outdoor course trains students in counter-memory activism on Furman’s campus. Students will learn the Seeking Abraham tour, which shows hidden legacies of race and racism in the campus landscape. Participants will become trained tour guides, with requisite memory and public speaking skills to lead; multimodal storytellers, analyzing and creating smartphone apps, video, audio, and photography to implement an interpretive plan; and facilitators for dialogue on discomforting subjects. 2 credits.
