The objectives for this Session Long Project include introducing some information about how the social, political, or religious history influenced the art or artist you have chosen to reflect on. You must chose a different artist or artwork from those presented in the Case Assignment. Your reflection should identify some of the typical values and characteristics of Late Modernist and/or Post-modernist art (Post-World War II). This information should, ultimately, serve to inform your own personal reaction to the artwork and/or the artist. You have the opportunity to make connections between your own personal interests and the concepts you are learning. You have more freedom to engage with particular issues are of interest to you. However, your engagement must reflect the research and background information you have read for the course module. Make sure to include the image itself or a link to it in your text. Paper should be, at least, two pages in length, not including images or references. ...

Throughout the quarter, students will explore current events, media, and pop culture to analyze in a weekly pop culture journal entry. This journal will connect class concepts to real-world examples and allow students to explore topics of interest. Each journal entry should describe an example in context, connect it to a class concept, and include a reference. Students will also respond to two peers' entries to discuss insights, questions, and make additional connections in a respectful tone.

Class, for this assignment, well be looking at art within a soc.docx

bartholomeocoombs

Class, for this assignment, we'll be looking at art within a social context! Here are the rules. First, you must choose a social group or movement. This can be a religious movement (E.g., a Christian denomination, Islamic sect, atheist group, etc.), political movement (either a specific political campaign, like Obama's Hope and Change or Trump's Make America Great Again; or a piece more generally related to the Democrat or Republican parties, or an affiliated group or third party), or otherwise cultural movement (e.g., Black Lives Matter, the Pro-Life movement, the Tea Party, Occupy Wall Street, etc.). ***********I PREFER BLACK LIVES MATTER****** Second, you must find a piece of art related to your chosen movement. We're looking for more than just a photograph or a campaign flyer - we want to find an illustration or art piece, with a particular artist, that reflects the ideas of your chosen movement. Add an image of this art to your paper. Third, write and submit an assignment entry (2-3 pages long, aka 500-750 words long) that answers the following question: 1. Describe the art piece . [Hint: pretend you are describing the art piece to someone who cannot see it.] 2. Summarize the message you believe the artist was hoping to convey. Do you agree or disagree with this message, and why or why not? 3. Summarize the effectiveness of the art itself in communicating this message. Explain what about the art makes it effective, and what (if anything) is there in the art that you think could be improved or is (possibly) ineffective? [Even if you agree with the message of the artist, you may find that the art itself could do a better job communicating that message.] 4. Finally, discuss the role of art in general in social conversation. Is art an effective way of communicating social messages? Why or why not? What challenges must an artist consider when creating social art? 5. Use at least 3 separate, distinct references in this paper. Preferred method: Typed, double-spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides. Include a cover page containing the assignment title, your name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length. The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is: Recognize the influence of social conditions on the production and reception of modern art. .

Introduction to Sociology – Final Paper Objective of Paper: This is a standard research paper based on secondary and primary sources. It should address its topic from a sociological perspective. This means that whatever topic you pick should be discussed using terminology from the readings and class discussions, should be critically examined (meaning its construction, labels, and groups should be discussed and critiqued), and should be placed in a larger context based on what we’ve read and the material we’ve discussed. Format: The paper must be typed in Times New Roman font, size 12, double-spaced. Points will be deducted for not following these specifications. Do not use color, include images, or provide a cover page. List your name, the course name, and the term at the top of the page, then write your title, then begin the paper. Papers must be at least 6 pages (not including the reference page). Points will be deducted if papers less than 6 and exceed 9 pages. Citation Style: All citations (to be discussed later in this document) should be in American Sociological Association (ASA) format. See this website: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/583/02/ for information on in-text citations as well as reference page formatting (you’ll have to click on a link to get to the reference page specifications). All citations must appear in the text. You cannot simply list them all at the end of the paper. If you take an idea or a quote from an author, you must cite that author in the text and include her in the reference page as well. Failure to properly cite will result in point deductions. Layout of Paper: The paper should be divided into FIVE parts: · Introduction: You will introduce your topic and briefly describe it. You must also tell the reader: · Why this topic should be interesting to an average reader (e.g., why should I care about the history of the “insanity” please in US courts if I am not a lawyer?) · Why the topic is sociological · Literature Review: Since you are probably not the first person to research this topic, you should do some reading of past authors’ works. You should give a summary of their works and explain why it is important to be aware of their works before doing your own research on your topic. You must use a minimum of 4 sources in your literature review. Also, you may only use academic sources or government publications. Acceptable sources are: academic books, journal articles from peer-reviewed journals, and government publications. Unacceptable sources include (but are not limited to): magazines, newspapers, blogs, “.com” websites, online news articles, or non-academic books. There are two major types of literature to look for: · Literature which covers your topic specifically · Literature which covers a topic somewhat related to your topic, but which helps you understand your own topic. For instance, if I’m writing a paper on a specific “Doomsday Cult” in Texas, I might end up with a lot of literature.

i would like this one done as well..same pay $20.00 please read and follow all instructions below Introduction: “Knowledgeable interaction with works of art makes life better: We see more of what can be seen, and we hear more of what can be heard. Our entire existence grows richer and deeper.” (Sporre, 2009, p. 2). From your studies, you have seen how culture, societal norms, belief systems, and past experiences affect the way people view the world. Learning about these differences in perspective helps us to have a better understanding of the overall human experience. Whether analytical skills are applied to a task at work, or a humanistic point of view enables us to grasp an issue from another angle, these methods of looking at the world help us become more aware of our perceptions and provide a deeper and more meaningful existence. In this task, you will analyze and interpret three creative works from three separate disciplines of the humanities using methods of subjective and objective analysis. Objective statements are based on simple observations and concrete information. Subjective statements are based on personal opinions, judgments, and feelings. These standard methods of analysis will enable you to critically view and interpret works from the humanities. You will use analytical and critical thinking skills to assess how meaning is constructed and imparted to a viewer or audience and will communicate your thoughts in a multimedia presentation (e.g., PowerPoint, Keynote). While the content of your presentation will focus on analyzing, interpreting, comparing, and contrasting three creative works from separate disciplines, your overarching goal will be to explain how the three works you analyze demonstrate the value of the humanities in meaningful ways. Background: Develop a multimedia presentation in which you analyze three creative works from three separate disciplines in the humanities. You will need to select works that share a common theme. This theme must relate to a profession within your field of study at WGU. You will share with your audience how being knowledgeable about the humanities and your selected theme is valuable in regards to this profession. First you must choose one literary work from the given list below. Choose a literary work that has a theme that resonates with you and consider how this theme connects with your chosen profession. Every profession within your field of study at WGU (Business, IT, Nursing or Teaching) will have humanistic considerations. For example, a civil rights lawyer may be concerned with the theme of freedom, a firefighter with determination, a social worker with compassion, or an engineer with integrity. It is the intent of this task to explore the major themes of the humanities and their relevance to our professional lives. Once you have selected a literary work, you will need to select two non-literary works from separate disciplines that share the same theme as the li.

Running Header:VISUAL ART VISUAL ART 6 Visual Art Student’s name Institutional Affiliation Humanities II - Visual Art The Baroque art period covers the period between 1600 and 1700. This was the period when Martin Luther set off a movement that was to change the face of the world based on his critics of the Catholic Church as well as the supreme authority. This was to launch of the Catholic Church that was attempting to clear up corruption in addition to making clear cut line in its theology and doctrine. This distinct Counter Reformation was expressed in council of tent the Pope Paul three that gave the Catholic Church new confidence and vigor. The council of tent had a significant effect on art where art was used to explain to the people about their faith since most of them were illiterate. The council emphasized the fact that God should be worshiped with ceremonies and rituals that found its way in Baroque art. In Baroque art, images are dramatic. Obvious and direct, they try to capture the viewer to take part in the scene, the setting in the work of art are either ornamental or extravagant, there is drastic contrast between light and dark, and uses common themes such as grandiose, ecstasies, intense light and psychological moments, death and martyrdom and conversations (Robbert, 200). Example The Ecstasy of St. Teresa, by Giovanni Lorenzo Bernini, 1652 The work of art is considered as apogee of the artist and has a number of qualities that include the following; painting, metal sculpture and lighting effects. This is not just a sculpture but an entire chapel where the earthly meets the Devine. In this piece of art, St. Teresa was a nun who narrated an experience where she met with an angle sent from up above and pierced her innards with a spear that was full of flames. This action was a Devine sign of love Contemporary art This is the art periods that has and continue to be designed or created during our lifetime. This simply means that it is the art that is being created and continue to be created from 1960s or 70s to the current moments. These periods are called contemporary because they are digital where 1970s is the cut off period where terms like postmodernism and postmodern came into existence. Based on this terms there is the assumption that Art diverted to modern sculpture, and paintings.Example The contemporary Art of High Hill The High hill piece of Art is postmodern based on its stray off the traditional old form of arts. While these are just simple stilettos art collection, they are out of the ordinary because they are dripping. While this could be a message by the artist it is somehow not clear anyone could have their own interpretation. These two pieces of art work are very different. First the Contemporary art could just pass as any picture in the Baroque art period, it coul.

kim woods Introduction & Concepts The very idea of the moder.docx

sleeperfindley

kim woods Introduction & Concepts: The very idea of the “modern world” is complex; in fact, it is impossible to describe and fully comprehend the multitude of people, ideas, and events that defined modern world history. But, by channeling this multitude into broad categories and identifying themes or issues that different people, ideas, and events shared in common, we can make sense of an otherwise chaotic mass of information. One main idea that many people in the modern world embraced was “freedom.” However, different people defined “freedom” in different ways in various times and places. Our job as historians is to understand what freedom meant to people in the past and to describe the ways they sought to gain or keep their liberty—or the ways in which some people or groups restricted the freedom of others. To aid you in this effort, think about the following four types of freedom and how the material from HIS 11 might relate to each one: Freedom of Action (to do what you want) Freedom of Conscience (to say or think what you want) Freedom of Association (to have the friends or allies you want) Economic Freedom (to choose how you work and what you buy) Project Assignment: Your project this semester is to trace the way one (1) of these four types of freedom developed, changed, and affected the lives of people and/or the shapes of societies over the span of the modern era. During the semester, you will write a series of essays (one short Response Paper and the Midterm Exam), which will help you develop your ideas about freedom and relate them to different historical examples. The last essay will be a 4-6 page paper due by 11:59 PM on December 4 2016 . All essays except the Midterm should be typed, double-spaced, in 12-point Times New Roman font, and turned in through SafeAssign on Blackboard. Your semester project paper must contain the following elements: A clear and concise thesis statement Clearly identified sources of information (in footnotes or MLA citations) Multiple historical examples that support your thesis Your thesis will come from the following process: Identify one of the four (4) types of freedom above that will be the theme of your project. (You will inform me of your choice in your first response paper.) Choose three (3) major events, subjects, or historical figures covered in the course materials this semester that you think relate to your chosen type of freedom. Each historical example should come from a different one of the ten units listed on the syllabus. In other words, each example should cover a different place and time — do not draw all of your examples from a single historical period or location. Select three (3) primary sources from the documents listed on the HIS 11 Syllabus—one related to each example you chose above. Your thesis should then address the following questions: Comparing and contrasting your historical examples and documents, do they show change or continuity in the .

ARH2000 Art & Culture USF College of the Arts 1 Art & Identity Research Project 15 points / 15% of final grade Submit via the link provided in Canvas. OVERVIEW For this final project you will research two (2) contemporary artists who deal with the theme of identity. In addition, you will reflect upon and propose an imagined artwork that relates to your own concept of identity. (Do not worry if you are not artistically inclined, you are NOT expected to create an actual finished art piece; it is merely a proposal for something you imagine.). The final project will be presented as a well-researched PowerPoint presentation. Scholarly research and a Works Cited page/slide are important components of this project. HOW TO PREPARE 1. Engage with the presentation: “Art & Identity” 2. Read/review the following from the textbook: Chapter 4.9 (The Body in Art) and 4.10 (Identity, Race, & Gender in Art); pp. 189 (grey box); 357-359 ARTIST RESEARCH 1. Choose two (2) artists from the list on page three of these instructions. Research your chosen artists in relation to their interest in a theme of “Identity”. 2. You must use at least three different types of sources in your research project: The artwork itself will be one source – the most important primary source. Therefore, you must research and find at least two (2) other types of sources (interview with the artists, scholarly articles, books, museum website etc.) to use in your study. Most will need to exceed this minimum for a robust presentation. See page 189 of your textbook for a list of possible primary and secondary sources. Further resources on how to get started are found in the subheading “Resources” below. You can find many sources in the library or in one of the library’s databases. 3. Your selection of artists should be intentional and surround a specific sub-topic of identity. Your research should not focus on identity in only a broad and general way. Clearly identify the sub- topic that relates to your artists. For example, you may find artists that are similarly interested in any of the following sub-topics below:  the fluidity of identity  deconstructing cultural, social, or political difference  feminist critique  diversity or artists who create work that explores related cultures, groups, or societies  You may consider choosing artists that work in the same medium (for example, performance art, painting, or installation) and how that material choice imparts meaning to their work. 4. After selecting your sub-topic and artists, you must decide on a title for your project. ARH2000 Art & Culture USF College of the Arts 2 5. Your research into the artists should include biographical information and an examination of the artists’ approaches. In a PowerPoint presentation of your research, include the following: a. Biographies of each artist: i. Image of the artist (photo, sketch, etc.) ii. Brief biography:.

Personal study essay guide

missfcmay

This document provides guidance on writing a Personal Study essay for an art class. It recommends choosing a topic that you are genuinely interested in to ensure enthusiasm. The focus should be on analyzing specific artworks through their materials, processes, themes or subjects rather than broad overviews of artists or periods. Having a clear focus with direction is important to write coherently. Viewing artworks in person where possible enhances understanding. Comparing two artists, such as a famous and local one, can provide different perspectives. Referring to critical reviews helps situate your analysis. The structure should include an introduction outlining the focus, a main body with logical sections, and a conclusion summarizing key findings.

The class is World cultures (HUM 111)As a way of experiencing .docx

anhcrowley

The class is World cultures (HUM 111) As a way of experiencing the Humanities beyond your classroom, computer, and textbook, you are asked to do a certain type of “cultural activity” that fits well with our course and then report on your experience. Your instructor will require you to propose an activity and get instructor approval before you do it and report on it (students should look for any instructions in that respect). Every effort should be made to ensure that this is a hands-on experience (not a virtual one), that this activity fits the HUM 111 class well, and that the activity is of sufficient quality for this university course. The two (2) key types of activities are a museum visit or a performance. Note: This must not be a report on the same activity (and certainly not the same report) as done for another class, like HUM 112. For instance, one might go to the same museum as done for HUM 112, but this HUM 111 report will focus on entirely different works and displays. Visit a museum or gallery exhibition or attend a theater or musical performance before the end of Week 10. The activity (museum or performance) should have content that fits our course well. Have fun doing this. Write a two to three (2-3) page report (500-750 words) that describes your experience. Clearly identify the event location, date attended, the attendees, and your initial reaction upon arriving at the event. Provide specific information and a description of at least two (2) pieces (e.g., art, exhibits, music, etc.). Provide a summary of the event and describe your overall reaction after attending the event. Use at least the class text as a reference (additional sources are fine, not necessary unless required by your content). Your report should include connections you make between things observed in your activity and things learned in the course and text. Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements: Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; references must follow APA style format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions. ( Note: Students can find APA style materials located in the course shell for reference). Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required page length. The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are: Explain the importance of situating a society’s cultural and artistic expressions within a historical context. Examine the influences of intellectual, religious, political, and socio-economic forces on social, cultural, and artistic expressions Use technology and information resources to research issues in the study of world cultures.

HUM 200 Pr

NarcisaBrandenburg70

HUM 200 Project Part One: Exploration Document Guidelines and Rubric Overview We all share common experiences that can be generally classified within the major themes of art. Examples of these themes include love, mortality, identity, truth, and beauty. The representation of these themes through various media reveals central beliefs shared by a common people. The comparison of objects from the humanities with similar themes helps to uncover not only the uniqueness of each respective cultural artifact, but also a shared human consciousness that transcends time and place. Your project for this course has two parts. In Project Part One, you will complete an exploration document examining two cultural artifacts that you select, identifying a theme common to both of them and developing a thesis statement related to the theme and artifacts. You will also identify an audience who would be interested in your artifacts, theme, and thesis statement. In Project Part Two, you will develop a presentation for your audience. In your presentation, you will discuss the impact of the cultural artifacts, theme, and thesis statement on both individuals and society, supporting your claims with evidence. You will also explain how study of the humanities has impacted you both personally and professionally. In Project Part One, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:  Illustrate the impact of the humanities on personal and professional experiences  Select appropriate and relevant resources in the humanities in investigating expressions of human creativity  Communicate effectively to specific audiences in examining fundamental aspects of human culture  Apply essential principles of the humanities in exploring major themes of human culture and creativity Prompt Choose two cultural artifacts to analyze. These artifacts may take the form of any artistic medium, such as literature, poetry, music, film, dance, painting, and sculpture, and so on. Then, identify a common theme and compare your examples to one another as expressions of the same theme in different cultural artifacts. Chapters 3 through 6 in the Soomo webtext will walk you through this process. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed: I. Describe the cultural artifacts that you chose. Consider questions such as these in your response: What is the name or title of the artifact? Who is the author or artist? What is the date or time period when the artifact was created? What is the cultural location or physical setting of the artifact? In addition, you could consider including a photograph or image of each cultural artifact, if they are visual artifacts. II. Identify at least one common theme that will serve as the framework of your exploration document. How is the theme expressed in your artifacts? 1 III. Explain how the theme you identified is related to your personal experience. ...

Overview The enduring relevance of the humanities is that they encou.docx

jacksnathalie

Overview The enduring relevance of the humanities is that they encourage us to consider a number of “big ideas.” What is culture? How do we go about studying it? What is the relationship between cultural artifacts and the culture in which they are created? Between artists and the creators of cultural artifacts and the things they create? How is human meaning generated through cultural creations? We humans seem driven to express and create in our search to understand and be understood. In Project 2, you will use the ideas you have studied throughout the course in addition to the insights you have gained from your deep thinking about your chosen artifact to discuss why humans are driven to express themselves in so many ways. You will draw conclusions about the reciprocal relationship between forms of expression and the context in which they are created and experienced. The short answer response assignment will assess the following course outcomes, which you focus on throughout Modules Five through Eight:  Investigate major developments in the humanities for informing critical questions related to human culture and endeavors  Articulate the value of the humanities for their impact on contemporary issues focusing on how humans generate unique meanings Prompt Articulate the value of human creative expression to the advancement of human culture. Be sure to state your opinions clearly and specifically and to provide ample detail from your course materials and the study of your chosen artifact in Project 1. You should address each of these in writing as three separate explanations. This is not meant to be an essay. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed: I. Explain why you believe humans have a need to express themselves through created artifacts. a) Explain the larger human need to express using the insights you gained from studying your artifact. b) Detail how a person and/or concept encountered in this course has informed your explanation. II. Explain how you think the act of human creative expression impacts and is impacted by the culture in which it was created. a) Explain the larger reciprocal relationship between human creative expression and the culture in which it was created using the insights you gained from studying your artifact. b) Detail how a person and/or concept encountered in this course has informed your explanation. 1 III. Explain how you believe human creative expression can impact issues we deal with today. Be sure to be specific about the issues you are addressing. a) Use the insights you gained from studying your artifact to explain how creative expression can impact today’s issues. b) Detail how a person and/or concept encountered in this course has informed your explanation. Rubric Guidelines for Submission: Submit your three individual short answer responses in a single Microsoft Word document. .

Writing about ArtArt is a provocative medium, and your chall.docx

billylewis37150

Writing about Art Art is a provocative medium, and your challenge in writing about art may often be to define and evaluate the artist’s choices and techniques, which, according to your intellect and perception, arouse interest and convey meaning. In most cases, then, you will be translating the visual (what you see, or observe) into language (what you write). In order to do this, you will have to be extremely attentive to the characteristics of the work—your observations. This means that your description will incorporate a large portion of your essay. Remember to be attentive to the vocabulary of the discipline of Art. I f you do not know what a word means, better not to use it. You must also be able to develop a thesis statement with a detailed analysis and argument about the artwork you have chosen. Therefore, you must consider what it is you want to say, and use description to make that point. In many ways, writing an Art History essay is similar to writing other types of essays in the Humanities. It requires a clear and focused topic, an arguable thesis, an organized format and structure, clear and coherent paragraphs, and a command of grammar and style. Comparison and Contrast In many beginning Art History courses, and in more advanced ones as well, you will be asked to write a paper in which you make a comparison and contrast between two works of art. This type of essay usually requires a substantial comparative judgment of the two works, which will function as your thesis statement. One option for a thesis statement for this kind of comparative essay could be based on how you see the two works in relation to each other and to some aspect of the human condition, or culture, or history. It could be, for example, that both artists painted peasants working in a field, but one painting suggests the oneness of humans and nature, perhaps because the figures appear to be an integral part of the field in which they are working, while the other painting emphasizes the separation between humans and nature. The evidence you provide for your thesis will include your interpretation, analysis, and description of the characteristics of both works, and must at all times relate to your thesis. For example, if you are discussing horizontality or verticality, you need to first accurately and clearly describe these elements in both works and then evaluate how these visual orientations demonstrate the validity of your thesis concerning humans as a part of nature or separate from it. Unless the assignment specifies a work-by-work approach, it is usually best that you do not divide the paper into two discrete sections: a discussion of one work of art followed by a discussion of the other. Instead, each paragraph can include discussion of both works in relation to a particular element or a well thought-out combination of elements, such as color and texture. The point of comparison or contrast that each paragraph makes must, remember, .

Research Paper Option OneThroughout history, art has been .docx

eleanorg1

Research Paper Option One Throughout history, art has been used as propaganda to shape public opinion. Propaganda takes many forms, such as architecture, paintings, print media, and is used to promote religious, political, and social ideologies. Select and fully identify two works, in any medium, that were used to shape public opinion. Citing specific elements in each work, analyze how each work conveyed its propagandistic message to its intended audience. You need to analyze how specific elements of each of two selected works convey propagandistic messages to its respective audience. Think about how works of art promote religious, political and social ideologies. Propaganda can be seen as consisting of three interpolated elements: (1) actual information, ideas or rumors that are circulated; (2) the vehicles through which those items are disseminated, such as art, texts and performances; and (3) the organizations and institutions that generate and direct the spread of propagandistic content. Propaganda is created to promote a particular entity’s interests, whether corporate or individual, and typically has an intended audience — sometimes multiple audiences. Propagandistic art has existed since the first complex human societies developed approximately five thousand years ago. Works of art have been used to legitimize a ruler’s authority, to glorify a state’s accomplishments, to reify social hierarchy, to reinforce religious beliefs, and to influence how people think and behave, among other things. Architecture has served as a vehicle for propaganda since ancient times as well. You have two tasks: (1) you must fully identify two works of art in any medium. One from the ancient world (BCE) and one from the modern world (CE) (2) you must analyze how specific elements of each selected work convey a propagandistic message to an intended audience. Technical stuff. Your essay must be at least five pages in length, use Times New Roman 12-point font, double spaced, and include a works cited page. Include images at the END of essay. You must use at least three actual books as resources and no more than two web sites (no Wikipedia!). Include images AFTER the works cited page. Don’t forget to cite yours sources throughout your essay. .

buffydtesurina

Course Project Overview Your Popular Culture Project, a portfolio of different assignments, will serve to integrate the main themes of this course: How television both reflects culture, and also manipulates it. The role Hollywood films play in shaping the popular culture. The many aspects of popular culture in everyday life and social history. Social issues and major problems in American Popular Culture. To achieve this, we will be looking at different eras of recent American History through the lens of television and via mass media. For your course project, you will analyze a film, a popular song, a television series/ show, a magazine or newspaper article, and one website from a particular period in history that we will cover in the course. You will then research the media product itself, and the time in American history when it was created, to see the relationship between the media, popular culture, and American history. In each media analysis piece, you will discuss the social issues present within both the media you are discussing (film, tv show, article), and the ways in which these social issues were communicated to American audiences through the media piece being analyzed. These social and cultural issues include, but are not limited to: sexism, the feminist movement, civil rights, environmental protection, gangs, terrorism...etc. The point of this final project is to have a completed portfolio at the end of the course, which includes assignments that are all connected through social issues in recent American History.
