I will use the resource links provided and spend 60 minutes learning about the native populations that lived in my area prior to colonization, and what I can do to support those that still exist.

Using the guidelines on page 68, I will use the Oxfam “doughnut” diagram to consider how the factors in the inner circle have affected my personal well-being, or what their absence would mean for my life.

I will spend 60 minutes this week learning about restorative justice and conflict resolution opportunities in my own community or state.

Using the guidelines on page 46, I will work with my group to draft a two to three sentence definition of justice that we can agree to use for the rest of this course.

I will use the communication methods I read about this week to practice effective, compassionate, and nonviolent communication with someone I interact with regularly: my roommate, my parents, my co-work, my partner, my classmates, or my children.

This week, I will spend 60 minutes learning more about gaslighting, tone policing, and/or microaggressions so that I can avoid them in my own communication.
