The EJ reflection class is intended to provide a supported learning space for students who are in the Earth Systems Program Environmental Justice Minor. We will review basic Environmental Justice (EJ) concepts, such as historical underpinnings of EJ problems and movements, principles of EJ guiding social movements and research practice, how to engage in one's own positionality relative to environmental justice, and best practices for EJ communication that centers voices. agency, and leadership of Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian and Asia Pacific Islander communities, and other groups historically made marginalized. Students in the minor will also share out project learnings to date, and support one another in refining EJ capstone and/or requirements for the Cardinal Service Notation. We will also host guest sessions to speak to student interests, possible to include trainings, professional development goals.
