ABSTRACT
Multicultural education in the US grew out of the civil rights and women's movements of the 1960s and 1970s that brought with it the establishment of campus cultural centers. To focus solely on a US-only perspective does not represent history and interconnections. Combining global social justice and internationalization frameworks throughout the curriculum allows faculty to reimagine the possibilities of new coursework and engage with alternative knowledge traditions and ways of knowing. Internationalization offers social justice a look beyond the local community and a focus on the global level. Although the literature includes international students as one of the many cultural populations on campuses, global frameworks may often be left out of diversity and inclusion conversations and international students may be discussed in monolithic terms. The Social Change Model of Leadership provides the theoretical conceptualization of the development of competencies around diversity and multiculturalism.
