MPH Core Curriculum (at minimum, PH720) or evidence of other appropriate public health coursework. The goal of this introductory course is for students to equip themselves with the fundamental knowledge base needed to critically re-examine systemic sources of health inequities, and challenge traditional public health models of addressing them. We examine the impact of systems of oppression, like White Supremacy and Ableism, on patterns of population health. We study frameworks such as Public Health Critical Race Praxis and Intersectionality, and experiment with their applications for addressing health inequities. We learn from community-led organizations such as ACT UP and the Young Lords to inspire our own public health strategizing. The course is intended for students without substantial exposure to liberative frameworks and actions for health equity. Those who feel they already have strong foundational knowledge around systems of oppression and anti-oppressive public health practices and approaches are encouraged to consult with the instructor before registeringSPH MC 775unlocks 0 courses
