Rutgers University Offers Course on “Politicizing Beyoncé”


    Rutgers University plans to offer a course on Beyonce, exploring race, gender, and sex through the lens of one of America’s hottest entertainers.

    Kevin Allred, a professor and doctoral student at Rutgers University, sees Beyonce, “as something even greater [than just a singer] with her capacity to effect social change.” Allred says, “This isn’t a course about Beyoncé’s political engagement or how many times she performed during President Obama’s inauguration weekend,” but rather about how she promotes feminism and pushes boundaries. He says, “While other artists are simply releasing music, she’s creating a grand narrative around her life, her career, and her persona.”

    I WONDER WHAT IS NEXT FOR BEYONCE??????
