Answer questions using proper sentence structure and with attention to formal
use of grammar. You are not required to adhere to a strict essay format, including introduction, thesis and
conclusion, but point form is not acceptable. You may use the personal pronoun “I” when talking from
experience or stating an opinion. You are allowed to be more casual in your language, if you swear that is
fine, but just remember to keep your conversation content to an academic level and on point. If you wish
to attach any links to websites, YouTube videos, or information that you referenced in your answer, that is
perfectly fine. Formal citations and bibliography are not required but do not take personal credit for the
quotes or theories of others. It is absolutely forbidden to resubmit work from a prior assignment including
for this course. If you have written a previous essay in this course on one of these topics below, it is
strongly recommended that you select another option to avoid repetition and possible plagiarism.
However, if you wish to pick a topic below that is familiar to you because you are passionate about it, try
to make it completely fresh in wording and ideas – expanding here is rewarded, recycling is not. We will
check your previous submissions while marking this to see if there is any plagiarism and submit it
through Turnitin if we need to.
Your response should be roughly 600 – 1000 words in length (please no more than 1200), use 12-point
Times New Roman font, double-spaced, 1-inch margins all around. Email submissions will NOT be
accepted. Be sure to include your name, student number and the course section you are in on this typed
document.
Your response should demonstrate your understanding of course topics, and offer critical
thoughts/responses to the material content. Demonstrate your ability to apply course themes to lived
experiences, including your own if you choose. As always, utilize an intersectional framework as you
develop your response.
QUESTION:
Describe the difference between historical and emblematic truths with regard to important
historical/herstorical figures and explain why each type of information is important. When the
person is part of a significant social change or revolutionary movement, is it acceptable for the
emblematic truth to hold strong over the historical (even if it is a falsehood)? Is it more acceptable
when this concerns marginalized figures rather than mainstream white, male, cisgender ones? Use
at least 2 examples of women and/or 2SLGBTQIA+ persons to support your explanation.
