Race, Ethnicity, and Inequality concepts

Part II. Conceptual Understanding Guidelines:

  1. The conceptual understanding component of your assignment requires 2-pages minimum.
  2. In your paper you must define the following concepts: Race, Ethnicity, and Inequality
    • Explain how these are similar and different.
  3. Next, you will have an opportunity to select critical concepts (e.g., white privilege) and themes (social transformation) that you have learned -or found most impactful- from the class PowerPoints, Films, and Readings. In your paper, in addition to identifying themes and concepts, make connections among them as follows:
    • Review of PowerPoint Presentations: Identify 5 different concepts, themes or facts you’ve learned, from five different PowerPoint presentations. Why are these concepts important to our understanding of race, ethnicity, and inequality?
    • Review of Required Films: How did the films help you understand the concepts, themes, facts, or ideas presented in the PowerPoints you identified above? *Provide specific examples and reference the films appropriately. Again, why are the concepts you have identified important to our understanding of race, ethnicity, and inequality?
    • Review of Required Reading: Identify 6 concepts, facts, historical themes you learned from six DIFFERENT articles assigned for class. *You must provide specific details to illustrate your learning; include one quote. And again, address why these concepts are important to you and our shared understanding of race, ethnicity, and inequality?
