IAP Power Series Case Study: Part 3

The past few years have brought a number of challenges that disproportionately impacted marginalized communities. We have seen the impact of power, privilege, positionality and systems change in many of these events, and that called many of us to action. Throughout the MIT community and beyond, we have witnessed a number of workshops and trainings that have provided a great foundation to understanding power.

Let's practice. Join the PKG Center for Public Service, SOLE, and the Office of Multicultural Programs (OMP) this January to go deeper. Through the use of 4 case studies, we are going to hold a number of zoom discussions taking a deeper look at instances of power and privilege throughout recent history. We will provide a case study, and time to analyze and reflect how identity is playing out; discuss our reactions to these events; and above all, identify actions that could be taken to challenge oppression in our own lives and within similar scenarios.
