modern racism is a complex historical phenomenon. It is characterized both by legal and institutional discrimination, and by individual acts of violence and intolerance. Sometimes it is explicit, and sometimes it is coded, hidden, or invisible. To build a more equal society requires us to think critically, to dig deeply into history, and to truly hear the voices of people whose experiences have been shaped by discrimination.

Based on the "Invisible Knapsack" primary source reading, response to the following prompt: 

  1. Do you feel like you have experienced exclusion through 3 or more of the things on this list?

 If yes: How did these experiences shape your understanding of power and difference in society? How do you think people who haven't experienced this kind of explusion might react to reading this list? Based on what we've been learning in class, what do you think is the main point of this list - how can it help us understand power and difference in society?

If no: Why do you think you have not experienced exclusion through these things? Why might these experiences be significant or meaningful from the point of view of someone who has experienced them? Have you experienced another kind of exclusion?  Based on what we've been learning in class, what do you think is the main point of this list - how can it help us understand power and difference in society?
