This workshop will deal with the concepts of power and privilege and how they affect us all. By the end of this workshop, we hope that you will be able to see how they exist and function in U.S. culture, how they overlap with each other, and how they impact your view of the world.
On completing this workshop, you will be able to:
- Articulate the definitions of power and privilege.
- Look critically at the presence and absence of power and privilege in your life.
- Recognize how power and privilege function throughout society.
- Develop a framework for identifying other forms of power and privilege throughout society.
