The need for a multicultural and social justice leadership approach is critical considering today’s political climate that threatens the academic, career, and personal potential of students who are marginalized in school settings. We offer a leadership framework using the main constructs of the Multicultural and Social Justice Counseling Competencies.

As a lifelong world wanderer, Joseph Campbell has a particular perspective on advocacy and self-determination. When your race is a barrier at home and an advantage abroad, why would you not choose to migrate somewhere else?

Charting the center and the margins: Addressing identity, marginalization, and privilege in counseling
Ratts. (2017). Charting the Center and the Margins: Addressing Identity, Marginalization, and Privilege in Counseling. Journal of Mental Health Counseling, 39(2), 87–103. https://doi.org/10.17744/mehc.39.2.01

In order to address the inequities experienced by individuals who experience multiple forms of marginalization, counselors must be able to make linkages between identity, marginalization, and privilege. Equally important is the need to balance individual counseling with advocacy. This perspective requires counselors to understand how identities intersect and the ways in which a counselor's and client's statuses as members of privileged and marginalized groups influence the therapeutic relationship.

Poverty impedes cognitive function science
Mani, Mullainathan, S., Shafir, E., & Zhao, J. (2013). Poverty Impedes Cognitive Function. Science (American Association for the Advancement of Science), 341(6149), 976–980. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.1238041

The poor often behave in less capable ways, which can further perpetuate poverty. We hypothesize that poverty directly impedes cognitive function and present two studies that test this hypothesis. These data provide a previously unexamined perspective and help explain a spectrum of behaviors among the poor. We discuss some implications for poverty policy.
