The goal of these modules is to have students objectively study minorities in a cross-cultural perspective. Specifically students will define a minority group within a specific area, explain why minorities may experience powerlessness, assess the dangers of having a privileged minority status within an area, and evaluate the extent to which minorities experience equity and justice.
