UC Santa Cruz launches online 'Feminism and Social Justice' course with Bettina Aptheker - Scott Rappaport, UCSC

UC Santa Cruz has launched a new online course open to the public through the Coursera platform. Titled "Feminism and Social Justice" it is an adaptation of a popular course taught on campus for nearly a decade by Distinguished Professor of Feminist Studies Bettina Aptheker. The condensed, four-lecture course critically examines three significant post World War II movements for social justice in the United States from feminist perspectives--considering how participants in these movements thought about race, gender, and class; how they organized; and what progressive changes may have resulted from their efforts. https://news.ucsc.edu/2019/03/aptheker-online-course.html
