Why is it important to have access to our historical archives in a way that engages with our experiences of the present? And how does your understanding of gender and/or sexuality factor in to your response?
Some possible areas/angles to explore as you prepare to write your thoughts:
describe how identities (i.e. religious, gender, ethnic, racial, class, sexual orientation, disability, and/or age) are shaped by cultural and societal influences in contexts of equality and inequality;
describe historical, social, political, and economic processes producing diversity, equality, and structured inequalities in the U.S.;
describe social actions which have led to greater equality and social justice in the U.S. (i.e. religious, gender, ethnic, racial, class, sexual orientation, disability, and/or age);
recognize and appreciate constructive interactions between people from different cultural, racial, and ethnic groups in the U.S,Why is it important to have access to our historical archives in a way that engages with our experiences of the present?

Give yourself permission to be subjective – incorporate who you are into your response, explore your positionality, interests, and the power of your personal narrative as it relates to assigned course materials within the parameters of the prompt.
Which readings should you focus on? That is completely up to you but do try to weave in at least 3. My preference is the quality of how you are (and have been) engaging with the material. You can decide which readings to focus on here.
What do I look for when I grade? The two main things I look for when rating your submissions?
Are you connecting to the readings and citing them? (quality of connection vs quantity of citations is what counts)
Are you doing more than just summarizing information? in other words, are you synthesizing the material in ways that connect to your experiences with the world versus giving me a snapshot of what you read without any insights?Give yourself permission to be subjective – incorporate who you are into your response, explore your positionality, interests, and the power of your personal narrative as it relates to assigned course materials within the parameters of the prompt.
