California Uncovered: A Journey Through Time, Place, and Identity


ID : 2719   

« back to classes page
California is more than a state—it is an idea, a
dream, and a contradiction. In this course, we will
journey from its earliest Indigenous cultures
through Spanish, Mexican, and American rule,
exploring missions, the Gold Rush, the railroad,
Hollywood, and Silicon Valley. We will challenge
myths, highlight overlooked voices, and examine
how migration, innovation, and cultural change
shaped the Golden State. We will discover what it
has meant, and still means, to be Californian.

Anthony Antonucci, PhD, is a historian whose teaching and scholarship
explore the intersections of foreign relations, nationalism, race, and
immigration policy in U.S. history since 1750. A Fulbright fellow, Antonucci
has also held research appointments at the Massachusetts Historical
Society, the American Antiquarian Society, and the University of Connecticut
Humanities Institute. He teaches courses in U.S., world, and California
history, as well as African American, Latinx, and women’s studies at
colleges across Southern California, including Cal Poly Pomona, the
University of La Verne, and Citrus College.
