Our final paper asks you to write a paper about a protest movement that sought racial justice. You may choose a protest movement we have studied in class and take a closer look, or you may choose past or present movements we have not addressed. Write a few ideas about a protest movement you are considering writing about (a paragraph).
What do you find interesting about this topic? What do you hope to investigate about it? Make sure your protest movement addresses issues of race, ethnicity, racism; you may also consider issues of labor, class, gender, or intersectionality. If possible include a course concept/term from Course Concepts Handout (in Week 7 module).
Post your paragraph, then respond to a classmates post. Include a question in your response.
