In order to fully understand contemporary social justice issues, such as gender inequality, racial disparities in incarceration, and inequitable access to healthcare, it is useful to examine how related social justice issues were addressed in the past. For instance, what efforts were made to advance racial and gender equality during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s? To what degree have those efforts informed how contemporary racial and gender equality issues are perceived and addressed?

You will examine how historical social justice issues have influenced the way that contemporary social justice issues are perceived and addressed.
