broad cultural, political, economic, and interpersonal forces that impact health and illness, we will
reflect critically on the relationship between the social determinants of health such as social class, race,
gender, and age and patterns of health, illness and death in Canada and worldwide. We will explore

that popular culture, in the form of music, films, televisions, print media, and communication
technologies, has on our identities, perceptions, values, and everyday lives. This course considers how
popular culture provides us with the scripts to practice femininities, masculinities, and sexualities, and
