ANTH 246 - Imagining a Just World through Action

The work of social justice is centuries-old, yet a just world remains elusive for the majority. Where and how do we begin to change our world? What should we do – or not do – to address injustice? Who gets to decide what social justice is? In this course, we study different approaches to enacting social justice, interrogate contemporary problems, and learn practical techniques to engage with each other and our communities. We explore global and local efforts for justice in political representation, gender, judicial processes, and knowledge creation. We will also learn through the experiential components of social justice practice.
