Unit 2: Systems and Structures

Students learn about CRAASH (classism, racism, ableism, ageism, sexism, and hetereosexism), the 3 I's (institutional, interpersonal, and internalized) of oppression and resistance. They then choose a topic they're interested in, historical or contemporary. They apply those concepts to their topic, practicing Internet research skills along the way.
