Description
This course will help students understand how culture, racism, and oppression shape human experiences and how these constructs influence practice at the micro, mezzo, and macro levels. Students will critically evaluate the distribution of power and privilege in society to learn strategies to promote social, racial, economic, and environmental justice by reducing inequities. In addition, students will explore how they see themselves in these systems and how personal biases will affect their social work practice. Prerequisite(s): Admission to the MSW program
