iOP Tutorial “Thinking about Race, Ethnicity, and Gender” (November 30, 2022)

The 2022 iOP Tutorial “Thinking about Race, Ethnicity, and Gender” changed the title from “Thinking about Racial Issues” last year in order to deepen ideas by including viewpoints of gender and intersectionality. We welcomed three students who are especially interested in issues around gender this year; therefore, we read “What is Feminism?” by Akiko Shimizu (2022) in turns during the tutorial session. At the final session, the students made presentations regarding discussions on same sex marriage in Japan, gender equality policies of countries where gender gap is closer, and gender inequality at workplace.
