Free Beacon was first reported Classroom teacher Colleen Rose encourages students to create “an in-depth reflection of two parts of their identity: one secondary identity and one dominant identity.”
The Beacon obtained a chart given to students to identify specific groups. The chart shows that “subordinated groups” are subject to “social oppression” by “dominant groups.” These groups include LGBTQ people, women, and religious and ethnic minorities.
“Heterosexuals, whites, able-bodied people, Christians,” and “men” are the “dominant groups” guilty of “social oppression.”
One student told Beacon that they had to “make something up” to complete the activity.
“I'm being punished through an assignment because of who I am as a person,” the student told the Beacon.
The student continued, “It's so rich that in a class where we're supposed to be talking about identity and not suppressing identity, I'm forced to suppress my identity…I have to suppress myself because I'm supposed to be a special, terrible human being who didn't grow up.” “Without food, it's crazy to me.”
The course, offered by the Indiana University School of Social Work, fulfills the college's Social and Historical Studies credential requirement.
IU did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
