Description
UPDATE: All my courses now come with custom Certificate of Completion! Humanity is capable of great things, but it's also capable of great evil. This course will talk about difficult subjects like genocide, slavery, racism, sexism, and more. We will discuss what they are, how they have come about, and what we can do as a species to help prevent them from happening again. We will also cover related subjects like how different populations (such as women, children, and people of color) are often targeted for the worst human rights abuses. At times, discussions can be difficult for many learners, so please be prepared for this difficult content. You are encouraged to take breaks and decompress between lectures.
