Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Promoting Diversity and Social Justice: Educating People from Privileged Groups (Winter Roundtable Series (Formerly: Roundtable Series on Psychology & Education)) (Paperback)
Though geared for educators, social workers, or student affairs personnel, this book is something that should be used by anyone. Social justice and combating privilege and oppression are shared responsibilities, which is highlighted by this work. Promoting Diversity and Social Justice provides a solid framework, grounded in theories, in order to work with any group to discuss privilege and oppression, and the negative impacts that these constructs have on people and on society.
5.0 out of 5 stars
