Overview
During times of heightened unrest, it’s not enough to start a book club. Allies must design courageous conversations that lead to action, the type that works to systematically dismantle institutionalized racism. In the struggle to disassemble systemic oppression and racism, what will be your tools? How will you use your voice? How will you amplify the voices of others?
In this class, we will explore complex concepts of systemic and interpersonal oppression and racism, understand how these concepts manifest on our campus and in our communities, then design and prototype meaningful interventions for impact.
We will stand on the shoulders of giants who have come before us while also blazing entirely new trails of our own discovery. Our communities are relying on us to leverage the momentum of this moment, our voices, and our unique skill sets to deconstruct systems of oppression and racism; let’s stock our collective toolbox, together.
