GSJ 300Feminisms for Social Justice

Students will investigate how feminists conceptualize social justice in the struggle to create a better world by examining feminist theory as it engages with categories such as race, class, sexuality, and disability. Through this examination, students will explore the relationship between feminist theory and feminist practice. Students will also develop an understanding of a range of views about the nature of oppression and inequity as well as strategies for resisting oppression and inequity.
