Race, culture, and relationships: An applied psychological perspective
Course #: PSYCH 406
Description:
Psychological research indicates that interactions between individuals are affected not only by each individual's intentions, but also (often unconsciously) by their cultural backgrounds, personal statuses, and related experiences within systems of power and privilege, such as race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or social class. This seminar provides an introduction to developing understandings, awareness, and skills that are the foundation of positive authentic relationships and contributions to social justice in personal contexts as well as in professional relationships such as roles as counselors or other kinds of human service providers.
