Confronting Oppression
Examine the existence of power, privilege, and injustice while working toward equity

Most social systems are structured to keep people with power, in power.  As a result, many of us benefit in varying degrees and so it can be difficult to identify and challenge disparities.  This workshop helps you explore concepts of power, privilege, and oppression, and what you can do to work toward equity.

Learning Objectives:

  • Define privilege and oppression
  • Explore power within social systems
  • Identify actions you can take to work toward equity
