The course, titled A Seat at the Table Syllabus: The Truths of Young Women of Color is expected to focus on the following themes: (1) Resisting Racism, (2) Understanding Gender and Sexuality, (3) The Role of Relationships, (4) Nurturing Ourselves, (5) A Seat at the Lunch Table.
Perry's course invites women of color between the ages of 16-30 to have a seat at the table by collecting the texts, music, and visual art that speak to 'our experiences.' Each theme breaks down some pretty complex challenges that might have a significant impact on your coming into adulthood. For example, theme three, 'Role of Relationships' hopes to analyze your relationship with mother figures, father figures and women of the same race/ethnicity.
A Seat At The Table debuted at number one spot, becoming Solange's first number one album to date. On the record, Solange poses a lot of questions, those both asked to her by the world, and similarly those she finds herself asking. Things like, "Where do we go from here?"
