Our social and political climate is thoroughly integrated in our personal and professional lives - now more than ever. When students ask about current events, race, religion, or politics, negotiating an appropriate response might feel daunting and uncomfortable. This course will give you and your students the confidence, skills, and tools to embrace and honor questions and discussions, seamlessly and courageously within your curriculum. Participation in this course does not require a specific political or social stance, but you must have an open mind and heart, and the desire to deepen skills in the areas of empathy, listening, awareness, and identity. The goal is to create a space where students can honestly and respectfully ask questions and have discussions about meaningful topics that affect all of us. Our students need us to hold that space for them; this course will empower you to do just that.
