Social Commentary Revisited

Agenda:

  • Review terms
  • Discuss examples
  • Analysis of "Geraldo No Last Name"
Homework:
  • Make sure you have finished the book
  • Name drafts due Friday
  • Journal: 

    • Option A: In a well-developed paragraph, discuss the following questions.  If WWYD filmed in Rutland or Proctor what would it focus on?  What isms would it likely expose?  Are there biases in our local communities to the extent that we see them in the film clip from class or in the novella?
    • Option B: Choose another vignette, one from tonight’s reading.  (You can include tonight’s reading if you wish.)  Explain how it is a social commentary.  What is it commenting on?  What opinion does it get across?
