Sample Book Insights: #1 When we are confronted with evidence of inequality that challenges our identities, we often respond with resistance. We want to deflect this unsettling information and protect a worldview that is more familiar and comfortable. #2 The courses you take to prepare you for social justice work should be challenging. They should contain difficult theoretical concepts and highly charged political content, all of which is absent in mainstream culture. #3 The example above is not an opinion, but a fact. It is more likely that the student would be seen as having some academic challenges, as somewhat immature, and perhaps even disrespectful. #4 The challenge of intellectual humility is that many students see social science content as soft science and therefore value-laden and subjective. They see the study of social inequality as a form of subjective scholarship, and therefore dismiss it out of hand.
