This document provides an overview of Cameron Paterson's work exploring systems of power through a critical design lens. It acknowledges indigenous peoples and discusses having a moment to reflect on injustice. It then outlines some norms for discussion and asks students to sketch a powerful person. The document examines power structures and oppressive design, asking questions about representation, participation, and power dynamics. It frames systems thinking and developing sensitivity to issues of design, power, and participation in order to reimagine more just and equitable systems. The goal is to empower students to critically examine everyday design and structures in order to amplify marginalized voices and challenge the status quo.
