DESCRIPTION
The aim of this course is to shed light on the relationships among racial/ethnic identity, globalization, the rise of racism and anti-racism, and strategies for decreasing racism and increasing anti-racism. This course will utilize classic and contemporary studies from a variety of fields of psychology (e.g., clinical, social, health, community, cross cultural, political) and sociology to help students explore such questions as well as to them understand more fully people's behaviors and events occurring in real time. Finally, the course will propose suggestions for enhancing collaboration with other people in reducing racism.
