After the seminar, write a blog entry that synthesizes your ideas about the film and/or racism in America. You may do one or more of the following:
1. React to the film Crash. What new insights about America or about human beings do you have after watching this film?
2. Choose one of the pre-write questions to elaborate on. Use the film as evidence. (see my DP from Monday if you forgot what these questions are)
3. Make an interpretive claim about the film and elaborate on it.
4. Your own idea?
Send me a link to your blog by Friday!
For tomorrow:
Finish Zinn, Chapter 2. Identify the claim he makes near the end of the chapter about racism. Do you agree with the claim? Why or why not?
Next...How did race-based slavery become an institution in America?
