科目名 Topic Studies 1  Racial Discrimination
担当教員 竹澤 由記子
授業の目的、または到達目標 To understand issues relating to racial prejudice and our responsibility
for fighting this phenomenon and eliminating institutional racism from
our society.
Learning goals:
* can explain the concepts of "race" and "prejudice"
* can discuss the issues based on the knowledge and their opinion
* can summarize the historical forms of racism
* can explain how racial prejudices can be reduced and removed
* can conduct research about the role of science and present and write
about this issue
授業の概要 This course aims that students will have a clear understanding that racial
prejudice is scientifically wrong, and that it is our responsibility to get rid of
racism from our own mind and to fight against the phenomenon and
institutions of racial discrimination in the society we belong to. First we
examine the widespread but false concept of "race" from a critical point of
view. Then, we learn how institutionalized racism plagued the societies of
South Africa and U.S. from the writings on Nelson Mandela and Martin
Luther King Jr. Reading the biographies of the two great leaders who fought
against apartheid in South Africa and the "American apartheid" in the
U.S.gives us an idea how cruel the institutionalized racism was and how
persistently people struggled against it. The deep insight of two leaders is
still inspiring, because regretfully racism still prevails all over the world and the struggle to eliminate it is not completed yet.
