Article: “Social justice workshops engage participants in critical dialogues”

Here’s a brief profile from GV Next that also serves to invite members of the campus community to upcoming workshops in the Social Justice Education office. I’ve seen an increase in attendance over the course of the past year in connection to this kind of outreach.

The spaces SJE seeks to host are designed to engage participants in critical dialogues that support them in better understanding their relationship to power, privilege, and oppression; including how systems like white supremacy, heterosexism, classism, and others work together to produce inequitable outcomes.

Acknowledging that inequity is not an accident and naming and interrogating how systems work together to reinforce it can create opportunities for us to better understand how we can resist, interrupt, dismantle, or co-create something more equitable at the individual, systemic, and societal levels.
