Reflect upon your own learning in the course. In a brief reflection (a few paragraphs), talk about how your attitudes toward equity and social justice have either changed or been reaffirmed in this class. Illustrate your position with several specific examples from class readings or videos that either challenged or affirmed your beliefs. Finally, write a challenge to yourself—what will you do in the next year to be an “equity warrior”? How will you make the world a better place for marginalized people in the next year? How can you apply the 4 Equity Abilities from this week’s readings into your own life, career, and experience?
