dc.description.abstractAs a microcosm of society, the queer community is one that experiences unique forms of discrimination due to the dominant scripts and social values of the larger society. This capstone explores how these dominant norms manifest in the queer community, focussing on racism. This paper reviews current literature on the ways in which racial identities are navigated and received from an intersectional lens, and explores how history has always been rooted in the prioritization of white identities over other racial and cultural identities. The capstone then concludes with a proposed workshop to educate future counsellors who wish to be socially just allies to the queer community and those who are further marginalized within the queer community.
