Building Bridges, Part 1: Stereotypes
Tuesday, March 4, 2008
7:00-8:30PM, Devine Hall Study Lounge (1st Floor)
This workshop-style program seeks to deconstruct many of the learned
and inaccurate labels, images, beliefs, and clichés that
create and sustain certain prejudices and/or strengthen one’s
own self image at the expense of someone else. What are some of
the stereotypes that you are aware of? How do they affect your
life and/or the lives of others around you? How are stereotypes
learned and what can we do un-learn them? Please join us as we
explore these questions and others.
Building Bridges, Part 2: Privilege
Tuesday, March 25, 2008
7:00-8:30PM, Devine Hall Study Lounge (1st Floor)
In this program, we seek to enhance our
understanding of privilege by examining some of the socially constructed
meanings and discourses which underlie it. Whether earned or unearned,
how does privilege shape or maintain the social hierarchy? How
does it impact our emotional and intellectual development or our
values and practices? What can we do to increase an awareness
of (and honesty about) “our own” location on the privilege-oppression
landscape? Please join us as we address these topics and much,
much more.
