SOC 325 Power, Oppression, and Critical Consciousness

This course engages questions of diversity and difference through a critical, interdisciplinary social science lens. Drawing on critical theory and practice perspectives from social work, sociology, and other fields, we examine how social forces operate to marginalize or advantage individuals and groups. Students will learn how to engage models for liberation and anti-oppressive practice across interpersonal, institutional, and societal levels.
