As Tunnel participants move through a series of rooms, they are presented with interactive skits, videos, sounds, images, and role-playing designed to raise awareness of acts of oppression that exist globally and in our American society. After participant groups tour the Tunnel, they are encouraged to process their experience through guided discussion, shared expression space, and personal reflection (co-sponsored by Counseling Services). Please allow approximately one hour for total immersion into the experience.

We hope the Columbia College Chicago Tunnel of Oppression will help tear down barriers that divide those who do not recognize oppression when they see it. For those individuals who live it daily, the Tunnel should provide an opportunity to share feelings, educate others and help facilitate understanding.
