How do individuals and families interface with larger systems, and how do therapists intervene collaboratively? How do larger systems structure the lives of individuals and families? Relationally-trained practitioners are attempting to answer these questions through collaborative and interdisciplinary, team-focused projects in mental health, education, the law, and business, among other fields. Similarly, scholars and researchers are developing specific culturally responsive models: outreach family therapy, collaborative health care, multi-systemic school interventions, social-justice-oriented and spiritual approaches, organizational coaching, and consulting, among others. This course explores these developments and aims at developing a clinical and consulting knowledge that contributes to families, organizations, and communities within a collaborative and social-justice-oriented vision.

In this lesson, students use three artifacts from the Community College 7 collection of the CUNY Digital History Archive that relate to the Bedford-Stuyvesant-based community movement of the late 1960s for a public college for the Black and Puerto Rican youth of central Brooklyn, a movement which led to the establishment of Medgar Evers College. The purpose of this lesson is for students to explore and practice strategies that community activists and organizers use to engage others in social justice issues that they feel are important and demand action. As they do so, students learn how, during the racial justice and freedom struggles of the mid-1960s and early 1970s, New York City college students and youth took action to shape the City University of New York.This lesson plan was created by Juilet Young, a doctoral student in the Ph.D. Program in Urban Education at the CUNY Graduate Center, for the CUNY Digital History Archive in Spring 2022.

Human societies display remarkable creativity and persistence in the range of mind altering substances used historically and cross culturally, although drug use occupies very different social locations in different cultures and historical eras. In the modern era, the regulation of mind and mood altering substances has become enmeshed with larger systems of social control, including public health, criminal justice, immigration and economic globalization. While drug addiction is typically portrayed as an individual problem, both drug use and drug policy are fundamentally social processes, and cannot be separated from larger social and economic systems.
