Introduction to the Social Inequalities Unit

Today we will begin our Social Inequalities. There are two separate but overlapping parts to the unit: social inequalities based on race, and social inequalities based on class. Today we will begin the section of the unit based on race.

We will first begin by learning about and discussing the idea of microaggressions:

• “Stuff White Girls Say to Black Girls”
• “Faces behind Microaggressions"
• The Race Card Project
