Large Journal

Spend some time thinking back over the course of the semester. We have covered information about diversity and culture; race/ethnicity; gender, sex, and sexuality; the Color of Justice; violence; and cultural competency/humility. Which topic or subtopic was the most interesting for you and which was the most uncomfortable? Many of these topics are uncomfortable for people for a variety of reasons, but I am definitely willing to say that the violence module – specifically in regard to sexual assault – is the most uncomfortable for me. I think most women have experienced some form of unwanted sexual advances, which makes it all too easy to put yourself in the role of a victim. It is uncomfortable, but we need to talk about it to gain understanding. Share your thoughts about your two picks and why you liked or didn’t like covering them.
