Narrative:
Active and engaged citizens must understand themselves before they can understand, communicate and relate to others. We believe that this is a process that requires increasingly more complex levels of awareness and understanding. In order to fully attain this competency an individual must first explore their own social identities. They must be able to identify the perceptions that the broader society may hold about their social identities. Our goal is to help students begin the process of making meaning and deciding on the role of their social identities as they relate to their personal context. Concurrently, the student must explore the perceptions/biases/ stereotypes that they hold about social identities to which they belong and also about those to which they do not claim membership. It is essential that they trace the source of these perceptions/biases/ stereotypes.
