Social Justice

Well, So far in this class, I don't feel at all challenged. I understand the importance of recognizing that people come from diverse backgrounds, and I can see how diversity in the work place can be important as far as gaining multiple perspectives and creating a comfortable workplace for everyone, but other than a very general overview I don't feel like I've learned anything new. Some practical tools for helping people work through and find strength in their differences would be useful so I am hoping to be exposed to more of that in the weeks to come. I wish I felt I had more to talk about, but I'm feeling rather uninspired so far. Part of this may be because the subject isn't something I'm naturally drawn to, but I'm certainly open to finding something of interest.
