Yale University is offering a class that studies the friendships between Black and White women this semester, according to the university’s course catalog.
The course, titled "No Time for Tears: Friendships between Black Women and White Women," will examine whether "relationships between Black women and White women can develop an equal footing."
"Can those relationships be unfettered by the trappings of quid pro quo transactions? Can they be built upon hard emotional labor, trust, and–risky and rare as it may seem–love? Are these relationships even possible?" the course description ponders. "Might we explore the deficits that make these relationships difficult? We seek to interrogate with brutal honesty the stakes that underwrite Black women's relationships with White women."
The course will be taught by the Dean of Yale's Pierson College, Professor Tasha Hawthorne, who focuses her academic work on "the intersection of gender, sexuality, genre, race, and politics in Black fiction," according to the university’s website. As a graduate student at Cornell University, Hawthorne has taught classes on "Race, Power, and Privilege" and "The Sociology of the African American Experience."
Students are guaranteed the grade of a ‘B+’ in the class if they meet the requirements, regardless of their grades on individual assignments, according to reporting in the College Fix. The course uses "contract grading," which often makes it easier for students to receive good grades if they simply make an effort.
This is seen as "an actively anti-racist approach to assessment" and a way of "participating in educational justice and equity," according to the syllabus, as reviewed by the College Fix. The syllabus states that the traditional grading style promotes "bias related to being White Anglo Saxon Protestant, speaking and writing standard English, growing up in a first language English-speaking community, having parents with collegiate education, attending high schools with AP or IB classes, etc.," the College Fix reported.

The course includes several readings about calling White women "Karen," including a report by TIME titled, "How the ‘Karen Meme’ Confronts the Violent History of White Womanhood," a Vox article titled, "How ‘Karen’ became a symbol of racism," and a journal article titled, "Querying Karen: The Rise of the Angry White Woman," the College Fix reported.
Fox News Digital reached out to Professor Hawthorne and Yale University for comment.
A Connecticut man facing multiple charges in the deaths of a mother and her infant son allegedly killed them over money the woman owed him.
New details were released about the November arrest of Lance "Macho" Morales, 23, following his first appearance in a Hartford, Connecticut, courtroom on Monday.
Morales is accused of killing 20-year-old Jessiah Mercado and her 4-month-old son Messiah Diaz in a drive-by shooting on Nov. 19.

An arrest warrant alleged Morales opened fire on the car the two were in because Mercado owed him $400 for using his Mazda SUV, The Associated Press reported.
He was charging her $100 a day to rent the vehicle, and she reportedly fell behind on the payments.
Before the deadly shooting in broad daylight, an exchange took place between Morales and Mercado, in which she told him her infant son was inside the SUV. A witness told police that Morales said he didn't care, The AP reported.
Two other people were inside the car during the brazen crime, but only one of them was wounded.

Morales' firearm was believed to be fully automatic, according to the arrest warrant.
A massive four-day manhunt took place for Morales following the deadly shooting, and he was ultimately arrested in Puerto Rico on Nov. 23. He was extradited to Connecticut on Saturday.
Morales is charged with two counts of murder, assault and other crimes, and is facing life in prison without parole if convicted.
He was ordered to be held on $5 million bail during Monday's court hearing.
