THE WOKE BRIEF · TAG

Institutions

Rules, responsibilities, and room to question.

An institution’s name can conceal different decision-makers. These readings ask you to identify the author of a rule, the process used to adopt it, the people affected, and the opportunity to question it. Read a policy in full and separate an aspiration from a requirement. Examine both the original decision and the process used when someone raises a concern.

Read a guide in full, then use its source note and connected links to follow the question. These collections bring together different examples rather than asking you to accept a single political conclusion. For a group discussion, let each participant identify one claim they understand better and one that still needs evidence.

A question to take with you
