This book is an opening and an invitation to engage in dialogue with/among each other as a means to mobilize in order to dismantle the systems and processes of power and privilege that sustain uncertainty.Courses: Diversity courses; research methodology (duoethnography); racial and ethnic studies; multicultural education; sociology; leadership and diversity; cross-disciplinary courses on current issues and social justice.
