Social Justice 12

This course focuses on the interconnected nature of social justice issues and explores how individual worldviews shape and inform our understanding of them. Students examine the complex causes of social injustice and their lasting impacts on society, and consider how social justice initiatives can bring about meaningful change for individuals and systems. Through investigations into and reflections on intersectionality, privilege and power, LGBTQ2 issues, Indigenous awareness, and gender equality, to name a few, students will be challenged to step outside their comfort zone and work in their stretch or risk zones. Thus, students must be open to challenging their current mindset to adopt a growth mindset.
