科目名 Topic Studies 2  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 to provide a clear understanding that racial prejudice is scientifically wrong, examine our responsibility for eliminating racism from our minds, and consider how we can fight against the phenomenon and institutions of racial discrimination in our society. First, students will examine the widespread but false concept of "race" from a critical point of view, then consider how institutionalized racism plagued the societies of South Africa and U.S. from the writings on Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King Jr. Their insights still inspire because racism remains pervasive worldwide and the struggle to eliminate it is not yet complete.
