In this program, you will learn to:

  • define race, ethnicity, culture, and nationality—and analyze the differences
  • analyze the history and culture of major racial and ethnic groups in the U.S.
  • question racial and cultural realities that inform the beliefs, actions and ideologies of Americans in local, regional, and national contexts
  • distinguish differences between and similarities among ethnic communities
  • analyze areas of stratification (race, ethnicity, gender, class, etc) and their relationships to equity and power
  • build relationships with organizations that can strengthen racialized communities while paving the way for multicultural and multiracial relationships

This program focuses on the worlds and realities of four major under-represented groups:

  • African Americans
  • Chican@s/Latin@s
  • Asian Americans
  • Native Americans

“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” – Howard Thurman, Civil Rights activist
