VIDEO THAT NEED TO BE WATCH:

Latino Americans, especially after the 20 minute mark https://video-alexanderstreet-com.libproxy1.usc.edu/watch/empire-of-dreams

PURPOSE:

• I want to see that you read and actually thought about the readings

• Think about potential final project ideas as you read and take notes – what will be helpful for you to go back to when you need to write your essay?

  CONTENT:

• You must answer 2 (or more) of the following prompts:
• Pick something from the reading that resonated with you. What was it? Why?
• Pick something from your daily life or from popular culture/news that resonated with you. This should relate to some themes in the class. Describe what it was. Why did it resonate?
• Your answer to these may not be enough to hit page/word count requirements
• Do NOT just take notes. You may include notes, but I want to see your own thoughts
• Some additional questions to think about (you dont have to answer these)
• What was new to you? Why is it new – what about education, public history, etc. created barriers to knowing this information?
• How do the readings connect to your everyday life in Los Angeles?

FORMAT

• Im asking that you hit 1 Word Doc/Google Doc page for EACH required  reading – this is not a hard rule
• Some weeks youll like one reading more than the other 
• Sometimes youll really love a reading and want to go well over that page count
• Other weeks youll not really connect with a reading and have less to say
• If the page count is a hard way to imagine how much you have to write, write 400-600 words per reading entry
