This is an introductory course designed to explore the core principles and frameworks of intersectionality and social transformation. The course content examines the social, political and cultural constructions of difference, the relationships and intersections between categories of difference - namely race, gender, sexuality, and dis/ability - and the ways in which individuals and groups experience multiple categories of difference. The course takes a social justice approach to understanding how forces of difference and structures of power impact justice, and determine strategies for creating a just society.
