SOC 313 Social Justice Advocacy

By defining social justice, and through the presentation and discussion of past and current social inequalities, this course encourages students to reflect on privilege, equality, and respect for human dignity. Sociological and interpersonal theories will support the need for applying a conscious social justice perspective to advocacy efforts. Students will reflect on how a social justice agenda is inherent in social movements and how adopting this perspective relates to advocacy activities, for both professional advocates as well as social justice allies.
