Classroom Activities
The MSW@USC Diversity Toolkit: A Guide to Discussing Identity, Power and Privilege by the School of Social Work at the University of Southern California. From a social justice lens, this toolkit provides several classroom activities-- identity; systems of power and privilege; gender and sexuality; race and ethnicity; class and historical disadvantage-- to help participants understand their own individual privilege that comes with “internalized domination.”
