SOSC 0999: Social Justice 12 

This course is a grade 12 elective. It is designed for students who want to learn more about social justice. In this course, students will use inquiry processes to ask questions, gather information, interpret and analyze ideas, and communicate findings and decisions. Students will examine definitions of social justice in local contexts and determine what social injustice looks like in Canada and the world. In the course, students will identify both governmental and non-governmental issues of social justice and injustice and assess various approaches used to promote social justice. Students will consider social injustice through historical contexts, assess the justification for competing accounts, and consider how the long and short-term causes and consequences of events and policies have affected society. Course content includes social justice issues such as those connected to race, religion, poverty, 2SLGBTQ+ rights, status of women, Indigenous peoples, people with disabilities, and other marginalized groups.
