Hey everyone! This week, I wanted to reflect on the learning group presentations so far. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The anti-racism group did an amazing job, and the presentation afterwards was just as powerful. I found the virtual privilege walk to be particularly eye-opening. There were many instances of privilege that I had simply not considered before, like being right-handed or never having to rely on public transportation. The activity reshaped my thinking on the privileges that I have, and perhaps more importantly, I\u2019ve realized that these are privileges that other people do not have. Our group discussion was even more eye-opening. The open and honest conversations facilitated by the anti-racism group really helped reinforce the lessons of privilege that I learned from the privilege walk. Hearing everyone\u2019s thoughts on the activity did that as well. Great job to the anti-racism group!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019n my unbiased opinion, the environmental justice group did an amazing job as well! Okay, I admit that this was my group, but I guess I\u2019ll take this opportunity to reflect on what I learned preparing the presentation with my group. First of all, shout out to Kirsten, Manar, and Monica for teaching me a ton about environmental justice and for being a great team! WALL-E was something that I never considered connected to environmental justice, but after watching the movie and discussing it with my group, I can certainly see the strong parallels it has to environmental justice and environmental issues today. I found it shocking that, despite being from 2008, many of the issues shown in WALL-E (usually not explicitly mentioned) carry so much weight today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m looking forward to learning more at the other presentations!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
