Combating Social Differences Within Institutions: The Need For A Curriculum Based On Social Awareness In Our Schools, Robert Abrams
Theses Digitization Project
To combat social, economic and racial inequality in the United States, the author advocates for 'social awareness' education to be built into the curriculum of the public school system. The purpose of the curriculum is to create a society that respects people and recognizes each individual's worth regardless of gender, socio-economic status, race, ethnicity, age, cultural confines, or religious beliefs. The author suggests a course of action on how to institute a social awareness course into the public school curriculum.
