Community Literacy Writing Project So far this semester, you have worked toward increasing your writing proficiencies through visual analysis. Now, you will complete primary research in order to apply the same type of critical thinking to a specific community. We tend to think of literacy as reading and writing, but in current scholarship, the definition of literacy has been expanded to incorporate the learning of basically anything from another language to learning how to use a computer. For this project, I would like you to investigate a literacy practice unique to a community. Preferably, you will pick a community to which you already belong, since there can be some ethical issues with speaking for a community to which you are an outsider. (If you are interested in investigating a community to which you do not belong, schedule a meeting with me quickly, so that I can discuss how to mitigate the outsider-narrative problems.) Learning Outcomes: ● Analyze, evaluate, document, and draw inferences from various sources. ● Identify, select, and analyze appropriate research methods, research questions, and evidence for a specific rhetorical situation. Requirements: · 3-5 pages. · Proposal and Interview Questions · One image that defines the literacy of the space included in proposal · Two documented interviews of members of the community · A copy of interviews · A compelling thesis that reveals the literacy practice of your chosen community · Strong organizational structure · Audience appropriate language · Careful proofreading and MLA formatting Assignment: This is a primary research assignment. You will: 1.) Choose a community to which you belong. 2.) Identify the literacy practice of the community. 3.) Determine what you think defines the community. How long has the community existed? For what purpose do you participate in it? 4.) Choose two members of the community and conduct interviews, after receiving permission. 5.) Analyze your interviews. Compare the responses you receive with your own experiences. Use your conclusions to write an argumentative essay about the literacy practice of your chosen community. o Be respectful. o Be respectful! (It bears repeating.) o Never enter into a situation that could be potentially harmful to you or the community. o Always get written permission for your interviews. o Enjoy your primary research process. ...

This presentation has been used to guide workshops on research and academic writing conventions for upperclassman and first-year graduate students. However, it could be adapted for a first and second year student audience. The content is rich, emphasizing reflection, research/inquiry, as well as grammar. This material also demonstrates how to use new media as part of an overall research strategy. The presentation is designed to be presented interactively with writers across the disciplines, multilingual writers, and any writer unfamiliar with the academic writing process. The content is not linear, as many slides could be clipped and customized for integration into a first-year writing course, or even a session or workshop for graduate student writers of any classification.

Each is followed by a series of review questions, "Thinking Critically," covering both thematic and rhetorical strategies as well as engaging writing assignments and other exercises. Visuals Recognizing the importance of visual communication, the 13th edition of Explor- ing Language includes updated visuals. In addition to the nine photographic chapter openers , we have added cartoons, print ads , comic strips, posters, sign language charts, photographs, and more. Following each visual are "Thinking Critically" questions, directing students to analyze the "language" of the images-the messages and commentary projected from the designs and layouts . Each chapter includes an editorial cartoon designed to connect to a current issue as well as the chapter ' s theme. Instructor's Manual The Instructor 's Manual, which is available to adopters, includes suggested responses to selected questions in the text. The Instructor's Manual also identifies questions that are particularly good for in-class discussion or collaborative student work and provides recommendations for additional online research. Acknowledgments Many people behind the scenes are, at the very least, deserving of thanks and acknowledgment for their help with this 13th edition. It is impossible to thank all of them, but there are some for whose help I am particularly grateful. I would like, first, to thank those instructors who answered lengthy questionnaires on the effectiveness of the essays and supplied many helpful comments and sugges - tions: Wendy Crawford, Camden County College; Miriam Gershow, University of Oregon; Philip Hu, Cerritos College ; Martin W . Sharp, Rowan University ; Judith Stanley, Alverno College; Lori White, Los Angeles Pierce College. To all the instructors and students who have used Exploring Language over the past 12 edi- tions, I am very grateful. A very special thanks to Kathryn Goodfellow for her enormous assistance in locating material, writing the apparatus, and putting together the Instructor's Man- ual under tight deadlines. My thanks also to Amy Trumbull for her help in securing permissions for the text. Finally to the people of Longman publishers, especially my editor Suzanne Phelps Chambers and her assistant Laney Whitt, and my devel- opmental editor Anne Leung , thank you for your continuing support, understanding, and enthusiasm throughout the production process of this edition. -Gary Goshgarian Introduction: Thinking and Reading Critically What Is Critical Thinking? Whenever you read a magazine article, newspaper editorial, or a piece of advertis- ing and find yourself questioning the claims of the authors, you are exercising the basics of critical thinking . Instead of taking what you read at face value, you look beneath the surface of words and think about their meaning and significa.

This assignment continues discussion of rhetorical choices. Jodie Nicotra, author of Becoming Rhetorical (2019) states, “all of us work to craft a persona for ourselves to help us appeal to specific groups and gain social standing” (p. 22). The term often used for the choices we make is personal branding. For this assignment, you will write an essay describing and analyzing the rhetorical choices you make. Content and format requirements Content: For this essay, discuss choices you make regarding at least two of the following: · Your appearance (clothing, hair, body art, makeup, accessories, and so forth) · Your living space (décor, furniture, tidiness/cleanliness, and so forth) · Your social media activities (“about” information, photos, posting, commenting, and so forth) · Your shopping choices (where you shop and the products you buy) · Your behavior in different social groups (family, friends, work, classes, older people, younger people, and so forth) Format: · Standard essay format of introduction, body, and conclusion. Think of the five-paragraph essay model, though you are not restricted to five paragraphs. You may use more, if necessary, but keep the length in mind – 250 -500 words. · Your introduction should include a thesis statement that expresses the main point of your rhetorical choices. · Photos, screenshots, and other visual aids are optional for this assignment. · Format the assignment in basic APA Style: APA 7 Template Organization requirements · Ideas are presented in a logical, sequential order · Transitions link ideas within and between paragraphs to unify the discussion Source/Support requirements · Use of sources: For this essay, use of sources is optional. However, if source ideas are incorporated (this includes the textbook, Becoming Rhetorical, then APA in-text and APA reference citation required · Provide adequate and appropriate evidence (examples, descriptions) to support the discussion Technical requirements · Use standard conventions of English: punctuation, capitalization, complete sentences · Spellcheck and proofread before submitting Assignment Standard 1.05 from the NASW Code of Ethics Cultural Awareness Post a response to the following: · Briefly identify and describe your culture. · Describe your first memory of a cultural difference. · Explain the information a social worker would need to know about an individual’s or family’s culture in order to effectively deliver services to them. · Describe potential consequences of a lack of cultural awareness on the social worker’s part. Requirement in the assignment To prepare assignment · Consider the different aspects of culture such as: language, communication style, art, customs/traditions (e.g., holidays, weddings, funerals), values, stories, religion, food, social habits (e.g., eye contact, how close one stands, how one greets or says “good”), gender roles, clothing, music. · Reflect on the first time you remember someone else display ...

The final exam will be held Friday, Dec. 12. The exam will open at 12:01am and stay open until 11:59pm. You may begin the exam at any time during this period. Once you begin, you will have 110 minutes to complete the essay you have chosen to write. This exam is divided into projects. Four projects are listed below. You will complete ONE project. Students should review these projects, choose one, and carry out the exercise described before the time of the exam. The exam itself will be an on-line writing project. Professors teach by creating a rich atmosphere of opportunities for learning through lectures, class discussions, assignments, group activities, films, and readings. Exams are our opportunity to see how much you have made of these opportunities; that is, what things you have taken from the class and integrated into your repertoire of skills and models for thinking about, and acting in, the world. The final exam is your last opportunity to show me what you have learned in this class. Keep that objective front and foremost as you do the projects. Exam Project One: Multicultural Identities People with hyphenated identities (Asian-American, African-American, etc.) have a particularly tricky problem as they struggle to create identities that allow them to be full members of the communities in which they live (e.g. “American”) while recognizing that people ascribe to them heritage characteristics stemming from the place their ancestors lived (e.g. Asia, Africa) . This is particularly challenging for those whose communities of origin may be stereotyped by the host society, and those stereotypes may be expressed in public culture. New technologies create opportunities for people to discuss these issues with others as they seek to forge their identities. 1. Go to one of these blogs Angry Asian Man http://blog.angryasianman.com Reappropiatehttp://reappropriate.co/ Angry Little Asian Girl http://www.angrylittleasiangirl.com/ 2. Explore the site. Make sure to look at comments on the posts, not just the posts themselves. 3. If you like, post a few comments. See if you get responses. On exam day, write an essay answering the following questions: In writing about racism and representation of Asians and Asian-Americans, what kinds of identities does the blog construct? What kinds of representations does he characterize as racist and why? Are there representations on the web site that might be perceived as racist stereotypes in other contexts? What things can these Asian bloggers say that someone not Asian-American might not be able to? Exam Project Two: Design an Intercultural or Global Assignment Recently Miami University decided to adopt the AAC&U competencies as part of its system for assessing whether students are learning the skill sets they need for the 21st century. Two of these skill sets are global competency and intercultural competency. This course, Intercultural Relations, meets the standards for both. The competencies are as fol.

Learning about Language by Observing and Listening The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes. Marcel Proust The UCSD experience encompasses academic as well as social learning. Therefore, we learn not only from our courses, but from the people we meet on campus and the experiences we have with them. Life is a journey of self-discovery. As individuals, we are constantly seeking to determine who we are and where we belong in the world. Throughout this process, language is both a bridge and a barrier to communication and human growth. The general subject matter for this essay is language or language communities. The source of your information will be what you observe and hear by listening to others. The goal is to do a project based on what our own minds can comprehend from diligent observation, note-taking, and reasoning. You should arrive at a reasoned (not emotional) conclusion. The conclusion/result of your experiment is your thesis and should be presented in the opening paragraph in one sentence. Secondary material should not be brought into this essay. Thus, this is not an essay that needs to be the result of academic texts or online sources. The research is what you see and how you interpret what you see and hear. It will be up to you to determine what particular focus your essay will take and wahat meaning you wish to convey to your reader. Do the exploratory writing activities on pages 73-76. These activities will guide you through an analysis of some of the reflections you completed in the first part of your book. Once you determine your focus, you will use the information you have already gathered and additional information you will research to clarify your ideas and provide evidence for the points you wish to make. If you prefer a more direct prompt, the suggested topics listed below might be helpful to you. Choose one of the following topics to establish a focus and direction. 1) From your observations and conversations, what assumptions and stereotypes do we make about people based on language and behavior? What did you learn from the experiment? 2) You may examine body language as well as verbal language. Explore nonverbal communication in a group. What conclusions can you come to regarding the group based on nonverbal behavior? 3) Did you observe language differences between men and women here at UCSD Notice the ways in which men and women treat one another. Observe the language you hear on campus. How do women greet one another? How do men greet each other? Do not just note the similarities or differences. Explain and interpret the information. 4) Observe and identify a code language on campus, on your job, or in your personal arena. How is language used? Is it effective? Analyze. 5) Have you become keenly aware of code switching? Who utilizes this language? In your observations and conversations, did you find code switching to be an acceptable form of lang.

E C O N F O C U S | T H I R D Q U A R T E R | 2 0 1 3 31 O ne of the great success stories of American retailing, Circuit City got its start in 1949 as a tiny storefront in Richmond, Va. From that modest beginning, founder Sam Wurtzel quickly built the company into a national chain, and his son Alan turned it into a household name. By 2000, Circuit City employed more than 60,000 people at 616 locations across the United States. Circuit City is also one of American retailing’s great fail- ures. In November 2008, the 59 -year-old company filed for bankruptcy. Within months, it closed its stores and liquidat- ed more than $1 billion worth of merchandise, and on March 8, 2009, the last Circuit City store turned off its lights for good. Today there are few reminders of the groundbreaking retailer; the company’s 700,000-square-foot headquarters complex outside Richmond is filling up with new tenants, and the empty stores have been taken over by new retailers. In part, Circuit City was just one of the many victims of the financial crisis and recession, which also brought down other large national retailers such as Linens ’n Things and The Sharper Image. And businesses fail even during the best of economic times, as part of the natural process of “creative destruction” that is the engine of capitalism. But at business schools across the country, Circuit City’s story is taught as an example of what can happen when success breeds complacency. From Tire Store to Fortune 500 In 1949, New Yorker and serial entrepreneur Sam Wurtzel was having his hair cut in Richmond on his way to a family vacation in North Carolina. The barber mentioned that the first television station in the South had opened in Richmond less than a year earlier. Wurtzel, fresh from a failed import- export business, thought this new entertainment device might be his next opportunity. The first experimental television stations began operating in the early 1940s, and commercial broadcasting began after World War II. Few households owned sets at the time of Wurtzel’s barbershop visit, but the medium was growing rapidly: The number of TV stations in the United States nearly tripled in 1949, from 27 to 76. Through a friend, Wurtzel knew someone at Olympic Television, a small manufacturer in Long Island City; through relatives, he had connections to bankers and businesspeople in Richmond. Within a month, Wurtzel had moved his family from New York to Virginia and was selling televisions out of the front half of a tire store on Broad Street, a few blocks west of downtown Richmond. Wurtzel thought his last name might be hard for people to pronounce, so he named his store Wards, an acronym for his family’s names: W for Wurtzel, A for his son Alan, R for his wife, Ruth, D for his son David, and S for Sam. Rather than try to compete directly with the big department stores, he catered to lower-income consumers by offering install- ment payment plans. He also developed a unique s.

You should research similar products to determine what other self-distributors are doing to deliver their product to a niche market. The template is just a guide for organizing your paper with headings and sub- headings. Retype and duplicate the headings and sub-headings. Everything else is your original content. Do not include any of the instructor’s comments in blue in the Template when submitting this assignment. Reproduction of anything other than the headings and sub-headings from the template will cause a deduction in points for your assignment. Use the Budget portion of the template to organize your distribution and marketing expenses. List each item you plan to spend money on, the frequency with which you will use it, and the cost for your company’s first year. All of the tools and tactics found in the written section of the plan must match the dollars that are allocated to them in the Budget Worksheet. Do not include any costs in the budget that are not directly related to specific distributing (selling) and marketing (building awareness) strategies proposed for the product. Costs should be realistic for what you are trying to accomplish. Remember you are working with a micro budget of $1500 for the entirety of the one-year plan. So, for example, World Tours and World Premieres are out. This budget will barely afford more than a local venue or two to showcase your product. The best way to tackle the Sales Projections and Budget is to create them in Excel, using formulas in Excel, and then copy and paste the spreadsheet into your Word document based on the sample provided. It should take you a few seconds to set up these spreadsheets and type in the column headings from the template. All of the line items are custom to your project and should be revised by you to fit your project. 10/19/18 3 Course Project – Outline Template (Be sure to start with Title Page to include Project Title, Your Name, Course Name, and Date in proper APA format) I. Executive Summary The Company: Establish in a sentence or two your experience and goals of the company. The Project: Explain your project through a premise statement (Artist’s Story or USP or Logline, depending on your media) along with ways to relate potential success to the investor through similar successful projects or its appeal to your Target Market. Sales Projections / Return on Investment: Summarize how their one-year investment of the agreed upon amount based on your Client Interview with them will see the project.

Dustin, A case study is defined by Saunders, Lewis, and Thornhill (2015), as when a researcher collects in the field observations and documentation of information from multiple sources to study a current event. The phenological design is referenced by Saunders et al. (2015), as the respondent’s explanation and remembrance of the activities and involvements being studied. These are quite diverse in being unbiased and factual. There are other distinctions, such as time and costs associated with each one. The case study requires one person from 1 company, the multiple case study requires at least three companies with at least two persons, and the phenological design requires at least 20 persons. The amount of time commitment to speak to 20 people for 1 hour, is more significant than the amount of time needed to speaks to fewer persons being interviewed or surveyed as part of the study. This time obligation will also transect the financial aspect of the need for additional funding for the research, if more time is needed, then transversely proportional is the monetary aspect (Walden, 2019). Benefits of Using a Case Study for DBA Doctoral Research The benefits of using a case study for doctoral research is the cost savings and time required to complete or accomplish the study (Saunders et al., 2015; Yin, 2018). The case study is still a factual designed, based on developing true aspects, but is less problematic than the phenological design. References Saunders, M. N. K., Lewis, P., & Thornhill, A. (2015). Research methods for business students (7th ed.). Essex, England: Pearson Education Unlimited. Walden University. (2019). DBA doctoral study rubric and research handbook. Available from http://academicguides.waldenu.edu/researchcenter/osra/dba Yin, R. K. (2018). Case study research and applications: Design and methods (6th ed.). Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage. Marshall To begin a discussion about case study design and phenomenological research design it is important to define qualitative data. Sanders, Lewis and Thornhill (2015) define qualitative data as data that can be characterized by the richness and fullness of information that is used to explore a subject in a real setting where the researcher derives meaning from images and words, not numbers and data. The quality of qualitative research is defined by the interaction between the data collection process, such as a case study, and the analysis used to explore the meanings of the data (Sanders et al., 2015). When determining the type of qualitative research that the researcher will conduct it is important to determine the method of collection and how it will be used to analyze the empirical evidence. Yin (2018) proposes that multiple research method can be used for exploratory, descriptive and explanatory studies if properly applied to the research topic. However, there is often one methodology that is more appropriate to address the research q.

Dwight Evaluation Leadership style assessments certainly have a place within the organization. The effectiveness of a leadership style assessment will depend on what type of assessment and what the organizational needs are. Multi-source feedback assessments are supposed to give a 360 degree look at a leader and give the organization a valuable outcome in the evaluation of the leader (MacKie, 2015). Using multi-source feedback assessments can be extremely beneficial as long as the assessment is properly paired with the organizational goals and needs. Assessing a leader from multi perspectives is truly a holistic approach. But, organizations need to recognize that no leadership style assessment is not without its limitations. Next, the behavior approach is one of four approaches to leadership. Three of which all have weaknesses; traits, skills, and behavior. But the fourth approach to leadership, the situational approach demonstrates the flexibility of a leader (Northouse2016, 2016). In today’s dynamic and complex business environment, flexible leaders bring the most value to an organization. The situational approach allows the leader to apply the other three approaches given the circumstances. As an Army leader I found this approach to be extremely effective while leading in combat and non-combat situations. Explanation of Usefulness Of equal importance is the usefulness leadership style assessments and the behavior approach have on an organization. Once an organization has clearly defined the goals and purpose of conducting an assessment, and then subsequently the correct assessment is used, the results will certainly help the organization. In this case, using an assessment to evaluate the benefits of a behavior approach to leadership will allow the organization to determine what needs to be done, how it needs to be done, and how fast it needs to be done (Saxena, 2014). Additionally, the behavior approach (if the relationship behavior is used), can give subordinates the motivation needed to achieve the desired outcome through a better understanding of themselves. Explanation of Impact The impact of leadership assessments on an individual can be positive or negative. Again, this directly correlates to the goals and expectations of the organization when the assessment is implemented. For the individual, it could potentially identify strengths and weaknesses. Thus, giving the individual the opportunity to grow and learn from the assessment. Simultaneously, the organization discovers how these strengths and weaknesses fit into the organization’s goals. Once they have identified where and how an individual nest into the organization, a holistic approach to achieving those goals can be developed (Northouse2016, 2016). In comparison, using a behavior approach assessment will yield valuable information about subordinates’ behavior patterns. Which equates to the organization knowing and understanding their employees. Understanding behavio.

Dwayne and Debbie Tamai Family of Emeryville, Ontario. Mr. Dwayne Tamai and Mrs. Debbie Tamai case of electronic harassment involved 15-year-old son, Billy, who took control of all of the electronic devices in the family's home, including the phone, and manipulated them to the distress of other family members for his own amusement. The incidents began in December 1996, when friends of the family complained that phone calls to the Tamai home were repeatedly being waylaid, cut off missed messages, strange clicking and appears like a minor with a disembodied voice, unnervingly distorted by computer, who interrupted calls to make himself known. After burping repeatedly, the caller frightened Mr. and Mrs. Tamai, and stated that I know who you are, and I stole your voice mail. Mocking, sometimes menacing, the high-tech stalker became a constant presence, eavesdropping on family conversations, switching TV channels, and shutting off the electricity. The police department confirmed that the sabotage was an inside activity but refrain from releasing the name the culprit. The police further stated that nothing would be gained by filing charges against the suspect. Mr. Dwayne and Mrs. Debbie Tamai asserted that their son, Billy, had admitted engaging in the mysterious calls. The interruptions included burps, blathering and claims having control over the inner workings of the Tamai’s custom-built home, and the power to turn individual appliances on and off via remote control. It started off as a witticism with friends and got out of control to an extent that he didn't know how to end the entire operation, become afraid to come forward and tell the parents for the fear of us disowning him. On Saturday, Mr., and Mrs. Tamai get organized and planned to take their son to the police department to defend him against persistent rumors on him. Instead, Mr., and Mrs. Tamai’s son confessed and labelled an intruder code-named, Sommy. Mr., and Mrs. Tamai eliminated all external sources and had confidence in interior sources. After 2-days, a team of investigators, intelligence and security experts loaded with high-tech equipment failed to locate Sommy. The next day, the team brought in two television networks to assist in the process. In conclusion, the son, Billy not (Sommy) contacted the victims; (his biological parents), launched verbal threats in combination with the electronic harassment, in an effort to demonstrate his power and authority over them. The best option was, Mr., and Mrs. Tamai victims were not physically harmed, but terrified and greatly inconvenienced by the fact that the unknown force appeared to have control over a great many aspects of their lives, and the unknown force turned out to be their biological son, Billy.

Dusk of Dawn Discussion questions 1. Explain: “when we call for education, we mean real education. We believe in work. We ourselves are workers, but work is not necessarily education. Education is the development of power and ideal. We want our children to be trained as intelligent human beings should be, and we will fight for all time against any proposal to educate black boys and girls simply as servants and underlings, or simply for the use of other people. They have a right to know, to think, to aspire” (p. 92). 2. Explain: “in the folds of this European civilization I was born and shall die, imprisoned, conditioned, depressed, exalted and inspired. Integrally a part of it and yet, much more significant, one of its rejected parts” (p. 3). 3. What does Du Bois mean by “slave heritage in mind and home” and “compulsory ignorance” (p. 5)? 4. Explain: “these matters seldom bothered me because they were not brought to my attention” (p. 18). 5. Explain: “wealth was God” (p. 26). Does this sound familiar? 6. Explain: “the economic order determined what the next generation should learn and know” (p. 27). 7. Du Bois discusses lynching (the standard Jim Crow era enforcement practice) on pp. 29, 55, 241, and 251. What was your reaction to these sections? 8. Explain: “I was pleasantly surprised when the white school superintendent, on whom I had made a business call, invited me to stay for dinner; and he would have been astonished if he had dreamed that I expected to eat at the table with him and not after he was through” (p. 31). 8. Jim Crow laws disenfranchised black citizens by three common practices—grandfather clause, poll tax, and literacy test. Do you think they might have affected election outcomes from the 1870s to 1965? 9. Why was the lynching of Sam Hose a turning point in Du Bois’ life (pp. 67-68)? 10. What do you think of the principles of the ‘Niagara Movement’ (pp. 88-89)? Do they seem radical to you? 11. Did you realize that the Southern States became more segregated (socially, culturally, and legally) after the Civil War? Step by step, decade by decade, state and local legislatures passed laws and ordinances to separate and distinguish ‘white’ and ‘colored’ in every single way imaginable—right up until the mid-1960s. Comment. 12. Du Bois suggests that if the U.S. does not follow its own ideals it might truly become “the land of the thief and the home of the slave” (which was how most countries in the world thought of—and, funny enough, still think of—the United States). Comment. 13. Du Bois recognizes that thoughts—the thoughts in our heads—are “expressions of social forces more than of our own minds. These forces or ideologies embrace more than our reasoned acts” (p. 96). Explain. 14. Explain: “that history may be epitomized in one word—Empire; the domination of white Europe over black Africa and yellow Asia, through political power built on the economic control of labor, income and ideas” (p. 96). 15. .

During WW II, the Polish resistance obtained the German encoding machine called enigma . The machine was brought to England. The British broke the code machine just before an attack on the British city of Coventry. Churchill, the Prime Minister, faced a dilemma - tell Coventry about the forth-coming attack and save those people but the Germans would know that the British broke the code. The Germans would change it and London could be attacked killing even more people. OR not tell Coventry and protect London and other places. What would you advise Churchill to do? Would you tell him to lie about whether he knew? Why? ____________________________________________ Participants must create a thread in order to view other threads in this forum.

During Week 5, we studied social stratification and how it influences what goes on in many social interactions among people. After you have read the reading assignment and lecture for this week, please respond to all parts of the discussion by the due date assigned: What are some of the factors that affect social mobility? Can these be overcome? Do you believe the structural-functionalist or the social conflict approach best explains social stratification? Why? How does the media reflect attitudes on gender as far as depicting women and men in very traditional roles? Provide two detailed examples that substantiate your points—these can be an advertisement, television show, website, or magazine. When you think of various groups (race, class, and gender) in society, which ones have the most power and which ones have the least? Using Intersection Theory, identify two groups that have unequal amounts of power and resources, being specific and using the text and outside resources. For each group, has the power dynamic changed over time? Do you think it will change in the future? Why or why not? Kendall, D. (2013). Sociology in Our Times, 11th .
