Analyze the process by which Conley learned the dynamics of race and class through social institutions such as family and school

Topic: In this paper you are to analyze the process by which Conley learned the dynamics of
race and class through social institutions such as family and school. What are the social
practices and discourses associated with those institutions that framed race and class identity for
Conley? How did these institutional processes and the cultural knowledge they conveyed shape
Conley’s understandings of race and class? How did those institutions shape Conley’s identity
and social status? Be sure to support your assertions with evidence from the book (examples and
quotations).

Analysis. To address this question adequately, you will need to spend some time on analysis and
organization before you begin to write. You will need to identify the structures, institutions,
and practices you will focus on; examine the part each played throughout the book; and relate
them to Conley’s adult life.

Format: Typed, double-spaced, in minimum 12-pitch font, 3-7 pages.

Focus is going to be on using the book Honky by Dalton Conley, that will be the key and primary source. As the instructions from earlier state, you can use other sources, but primarily utilizing the book will be best.

What conclusions could you possibly reach about the significance of this dream, based upon your own assumptions and focusing on what you have read about the Jungian analysis of a dream?

You have just finished reading the section on dreams/myth. You also got an introduction into the field of dream analysis, with a particular focus on the application of Jung’s ideas regarding that process.
Here is your task for this paper:
You are to read the following dream, as told by the dreamer, a woman in her early 30’s who lived in Finland:
I was walking past the road leading to the highway. I don’t know how I got there, because I live so far from it. Suddenly a car swerved over and stopped in front of me and two people got out. Their faces were blurry – it was foggy outside. One of them asked me if I could help find a bus because they both were tired of driving. The other person looked like my sister when she was a child – she kept crying and blaming me for not helping. She was always like that until she died last year. Then I noticed I was back home, and both my parents were trying to feed our dog, but the dog kept jumping up and down at the window – I looked outside and saw the car the two had been in. When I asked my parents why they were yelling at me, they laughed and opened the door. The dog ran out and jumped in the car. Then I woke up.
First: What are your own first impressions about this story? “Off the top of your head” as it were, what is this about?
Second: If you were performing a Jungian analysis of this dream, what are three of the most important questions you would ask the dreamer and WHY would you ask each one?
Third: What conclusions could you possibly reach about the significance of this dream, based upon your own assumptions and focusing on what you have read about the Jungian analysis of a dream?
