Session: Teaching DEI in States that Ban Anti-Oppression Education: Honoring Indigenous Knowledge

Teaching DEI in States That Ban Anti-Oppression Education: Honoring Indigenous Knowledge

Saturday, October 26, 2024
3:00 PM – 3:30 PM CT
Location: KC Convention Center, Poster 3A
States are continuing to pass laws that stipulate what cannot be taught, both for K-12 and postsecondary education. Anti-Racism and DEI education are integral parts of the social work curriculum. Teaching from an Indigenous Knowledge perspective is one way to bring DEI content into rural social work education.

Learning Objectives:

  1. integrate anti-racism and DEI content into the social work program curriculum without contravening DEI and Anti-Racism state laws and university policies.
  2. describe how the world view of Indigenous People and Indigenous Knowledge is particularly appropriate for rural programs
  3. understand how the world view of Indigenous People and the use of Indigenous Knowledge is integral in assessment and intervention with rural populations.
