Enhancing Stereotype Awareness
Session 2
Gregory Hall, GH 313
11:20 AM - 12:30 PM
Diversity and Social Justice Education presents our “Enhancing Stereotype Awareness” workshop which explores the formation and perpetuation of stereotypes and how stereotypes affect our interactions with others. Participants will be discussing their own experiences with stereotypes and how these “single stories” diminishes people’s identities. This workshop is offered as part of DSJE’s I-Journey peer education program and is facilitated by our undergraduate Social Justice Leadership Interns.
