WGSS 32600 - Sex, Race, Class And Leadership

Credit Hours: 3.00. This course offers students opportunities to build practical skills in dismantling institutional, systemic, and structural manifestations of mutually reinforcing oppressions such as racism, classism, sexism, heterosexism and homophobia, ableism, anti-immigrant bias, religious bigotry, and others rooted in hatred. Case studies of social justice-focused change initiatives in the US and globally are analyzed from intersectional perspectives to identify successful and unsuccessful strategies and this analysis informs design of specific interventions. Focus is on enabling students, through social engagement, to be effective agents of change in their communities, professions, and civil society at large.
