UNCOVERING BIAS AND MISSING NARRATIVES Discussion 5 -1
Thus far, you have learned how historical contexts, perspectives, and biases influence the interpretation and “telling” of historical narratives. For this discussion, reflect on what you have learned about your research question and the historical event and current event you chose. To ensure an interesting discussion, you are encouraged to think creatively about your initial posts and extend the points made by your peers. It is also important to review the module resources and read the prompts in their entirety before participating in the discussion. You should include examples and other supporting evidence from the module resources in your posts.
Discussing challenges that face our world often means investigating opinions and ideas different from your own. Remember to remain thoughtful and respectful towards your peers and instructor in your discussion post and replies.
Create one initial post and follow up with at least two response posts.
For your initial post, address the following:
Discuss the brainstorming process you used to identify bias in your primary and secondary sources. How did you do it? Describe the strategies that were successful for you. List the primary and secondary sources.
Consider the challenges you encountered identifying the narratives about your historical event. What methods did you use to identify the absent voices in the historical narratives?
What perspectives do you think are missing from the narrative about your historical event?
Be sure to cite evidence from your sources to justify your points.
For your response posts, address the following:
How might you use your peers’ strategies to uncover another absent perspective related to your historical event or expose a historical narrative bias? If you think you cannot apply your peers’ strategies to your own event or narrative, explain why.
Remember, this assignment is graded on the quality of your initial post and at least two response posts to your classmates. If you refer to any module resources, be sure to include an attribution (or citation) for the resource.
Response Post # 1
When I am brainstorming, I feel very chaotic. I tend to end up being all over the place but ultimately I narrow down my sources based on how a reading catches my attention and how it makes me feel. I like to read each source in its entirety and make sure they include all necessary information. I was able to identify bias pretty easily because two of my sources are third person factual based readings whereas the other two are first person interviews that clearly hold bias because they contain personal thoughts, feelings, and opinions.
Absent voices can be felt in these sources because there are only a handful of survivors left from this time therefore we are left with much secondhand information. If we had access to more first person accounts, we would be able to analyze the events at a much more personal level. This also goes hand in hand with the missing perspectives. It is hard to understand what really happened without having various accounts from those that experienced. I have one source that does have a first hand account but many more would help to connect all the various pieces of information. Unfortunately, at over 100 years after the fact, this is next to impossible to achieve.

Response Post # 2
Picking my topic was very easy for me because I have always felt that despite how The Native Americans were treated, forced from their lands and relocated hundreds of miles to places deemed undesirable at the time, people tend to forget or leave them out of the conversation surrounding racial inequality or racial justice. Reading all these stories written during the time of the Wounded Knee Occupation, from several different perspectives, has shown just how divided the country was when it came to equality for the Native Americans. I have a couple sources from the government side of things, written with a definite bias against the Indians and a more forgiving viewpoint on the wrongdoing of the government. On the other hand I have several sources that were at the Occupation, whose first hand viewpoint or personal feeling may have been biased due to The Massacre a Wounded Knee.
I did some research on each source I chose to try and make sure I would be a able to add a viewpoint from each side of the story. I feel I am missing more of the government side of things. As time has passed and the stories are written in a more sympathetic tone in regard to the Indians, the original stance by the authorities has been toned down and made more palatable for todays audience.

Who is the author? What do we know about him/her? Is she/he qualified (expert) to write about the topic?

Instructions:

Part I

Who is the author? What do we know about him/her? Is she/he qualified (expert) to write about the topic?
Identify the author’s thesis. A thesis is a statement capable of proof.
Does the author state WHY the writing is important? Does the writing fulfill a “historical gap?”
Does the author state HOW he/she is going to prove the thesis?
Part II

In this part you will give several examples of how the author substantiates his/her thesis.
What proof does he/she put forward?
Choose examples carefully to show how the author validates the thesis. Be specific here.
Part III

In this part you will determine whether you are persuaded by the author’s argument. Using the examples from Part II, you will determine whether they in fact validate the thesis. Use your TEXTBOOK as guide. Does the author’s claims match or follow in line with the textbook. (This will take you some time to flesh out.)
Part IV

In this part you will evaluate sources and footnotes. Are the footnotes accurate and to the point? What sources has the author consulted? Are both sides of the conflict represented to the same degree, or is the author relying too heavily on only one set of sources?
Part V

Conclusion. Does the author prove his/her point? Would you recommend this book for others to read? Why or why not?
This review needs to be in an essay. You are NOT to simply number the page and answer the questions. If you do this, your grade will be reduced by 50%.

Junior Research Paper – 3 Topics College Expenses / Business / College Requirements

You are to write a three-to-five-page MLA-style research paper that will profile three postsecondary (after-high school) paths that you are considering pursuing. You are to write a three-to-five-page MLA-style research paper that will profile three postsecondary (after-high school) paths that you are considering pursuing. The information necessary to present each path will vary due to what each path is. For example, profiling a college or university may include information such as location, financial aid, study programs, housing, school mission, etc. On the other hand, profiling a career may state its entry-level requirements, training expectations, potential salary and benefits, availability of jobs, etc. It just depends on the type of path you’re detailing. Each path must include a minimum of five relevant details that provide an adequate profile of the path.

Each path must include a minimum of five relevant details that provide an adequate profile of the path. You must have a minimum of two sources for each path you profile. One of the sources for each path must be a person closely associated with the path (such as an admissions counselor, military recruiter, a person currently in the career field you are considering, etc.). You can interview this person either one-on-one in person or via email or phone conversation. The other source may be a school website, printed pamphlets or handouts, etc.

All quoted materials in your paper are to be cited according to MLA guidelines. (We will review these guidelines as the due date approaches.)
