Looking for a cool course to take this fall? Sign up for Social Justice & Identity (AAS 250), offered by the African American Studies Program.
This course will examine anti-racist and anti-oppression social movements, practices and concepts throughout the world that promote racial equality and social justice. Students will participate in self-reflective conversations and inquiry that relate to their personal and social identities and those that are represented across social issues. Supplemental learning activities will enable students to better understand and analyze the processes by which their identities are constructed and understood and social change happens.
