OCUSJS - Critical Social Justice & Solidarity

Critical Social Justice and Solidarity is an action oriented undergraduate program serving students who are drawn to understanding the big questions of our time and how everyday people can generate power for change. Critical Social Justice and Solidarity welcomes people who want to develop their skills, experience, and knowledge to directly participate in building a more socially and environmentally just and life-affirming world. Our curriculum moves our students beyond opinion to an analysis of the world and its social systems while developing social, environmental, and political consciousness and cultural competencies. Additionally, our students learn to recognize, learn from, and participate in the movements that are reframing and re-describing what is possible in the world. Finally, our students learn to identify their own sense of purpose and mobilize their talents to contribute to movements for justice.
