Beyonce A Course At Rutgers University.....

Beyonce is now a topic of study at Rutgers University in New Jersey, The college course is called ‘Politicising Beyonce’ which is now apart of their Department Of Women’s and Gender Studies.

This course will assess the significance of culturally and politically in the Western world.

 The professor Kevin Allred had this to say on the University website:

“This isn’t a course about Beyoncé’s political engagement or how many times she performed during President Obama’s inauguration weekend.She certainly pushes boundaries. While other artists are simply releasing music, she’s creating a grand narrative around her life, her career, and her persona.He added: “Of course, there are people who’ll say, ‘You’re not black. You’re not a woman’. It’s something I’m always questioning and staying aware of so as not to overstep any bounds or make any claims for a group that I don’t belong to. It’s a fine line and I want to remain respectful of that.”
