awareness and social justice with the office of pluralism & Leadership
The Power, Privilege and Social Justice area within OPAL focuses on examining the intersecting forces of power and privilege that shape social structures, institutions, and individual experiences. It seeks to uncover how systems of inequality—rooted in race, class, gender, sexuality, ability, and other social categories—are perpetuated and normalized. By critically analyzing these power dynamics, this field aims to foster greater awareness and understanding of social justice issues, advocating for equity, inclusion, and systemic change
