  1. privilege
  2. self-awareness
  3. social justice

As a result of this activity, participants will be able to: 1. "Realize what privileges they may not have and/or take for granted." 2. "Recognize that privilege is not only a legal construct but also social, religious, economical, and so on." 3. Understand "how their personal perspective, life situation, etc. influence the types of choices they make" (Bolger, n.d.).
