“Social Justice Studies empowers students to be-come historical actors through an interdisciplinary curriculum designed to critically interrogate the world and more importantly to change it.” – Dr. Albert Ponce, Political Science Professor
Social justice refers to creating a society (or community, organization, or campus) with an equitable distribution of resources and oppor-tunities (Diane Goodman, Cultural Competency for Social Justice 2013). The goal is to have a transformative impact on our college and sur-rounding community culture and students who become engaged, informed, and active in their communities.
In the Social Justice program at DVC you will:
• learn to understand social injustices and inequities and proposed approaches to their remediation and/or resolution
• participate in community-based or service- learning projects overseen by Social Justice faculty that link the critical frameworks and key concepts with experiential learning
• be empowered to be civically engaged participants in college and community life
• demonstrate analytical writing ability that effectively integrates theoretical and experiential knowledge about social justice.
What can I do with a degree in Social Juctice?Countless occupations exist for people who want to fight for social justice. Some people become activists positioned at picket lines. Others work with those from disadvantaged groups as career counselors, teachers in underserved communities or public defenders. Still others attempt to bring about high-level change by running for public office or informing policy decisions with research.
Students with a major in Social Justice pursue careers in social service, social policy analysis, mediation and intervention, and social justice advocacy or pursue graduate school.
The Social Justice Studies TMC is an “area of empha-sis” (AOE) and has specifically been designed to pre-pare students for transfer into a variety of CSU majors.
“Like Paulo Freire, I believe that education can never be a neutral practice, and educators can and should employ social justice-oriented pedagogy to ameliorate the inequities in society.” – Dr. Sangha Niyogi, Sociology Professor
“Once social change begins, it cannot be re-versed. You cannot uneducate the person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore”—Cesar Chavez
Here are some of the many areas of study that the Social Justice Program will prepare you for:
• African American Studies • Africana Studies • American Indian Studies • American Studies • Arabic Language, Literature and Culture • Asian American Studies • Chicano/Chicana Studies • Ethnic Studies • Gender Studies • Labor and Employment Studies • Labor Studies • Latin American Studies • Liberal Studies w/Option in Interdisciplinary Studies in Culture & Society • Liberal Studies - Border Studies Option • Mexican-American Studies • Modern Jewish Studies • Negotiation, Conflict Resolution and Peacebuilding • Sociology - Concentration in Critical Race Studies • Sociology - Concentration Race, Class, and Gender • Sociology with Inequalities and Diversity Option • Social Science with Emphasis in Islamic and Arabic Studies • Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies • Women’s Studies.
By getting hands-on experience with local organiza-tions and institutions, such as shelters, health advo-cacy programs, community centers, domestic abuse services and social service agencies students will gain experiences that will give them an edge once they’re on the job market.
