Your task is to create your perfect, ideal community. You can choose where it is, who lives there, and what you believe in. Using what we have learned about communities, stratification, socialization, and elements of cultures, design your community with detail and care. You will turn in three things for this assignment: your community outline and your visual representation.
Community Outline (Addressing each issue and the accompanying questions in complete sentences with detailed explanations of your reasoning. Remember, you should address the WHY or WHY NOT of your decisions. Also, if anything is free to members of the community, you must explain how you’re paying for it.)
Visual Representation of your Utopian Community(Show us what’s in your head! Provide a map/illustration of your community filled with details that help visualize what you described in the answers to your questions. Remember, if you have people working at restaurants, there should be restaurants in your visual representation. Likewise, if people go to parks in their free time, there should be parks in your illustration.)
A self-evaluation (can be found in the last two slides and should be included in your slides but has also been placed below)

Title: “Sociological Analysis of Race and Ethnicity in the Film ‘Get Out’”
Develop a 2–3-page paper discussing how a film, TV show, video game, or book (of your choosing) relates to a topic in sociology discussed in one of the following chapters:
Chapter 11: Race & Ethnicity
Chapter 12: Gender, Sex, & Sexuality
Chapter 14: Relationships, Marriage & Family
Chapter 15: Religion
Chapter 16: Education
Chapter 19: Health and Medicine
Chapter 21: Social Movements & Social Change
Content and Format Guidelines:
Summary:
Briefly summarize the film, TV show, or novel, that you are using for your paper. That is, do not assume that I have seen the movie, TV show, or have read the book that you will be talking about. Give me a little background; set the stage for what you will be discussing in greater detail in the rest of your paper.
Note the word “brief,” meaning approximately 1-2 paragraphs. The summary should not be longer than your analysis.
Key Terms/ Concepts:
Incorporate at least five (but feel free to use more) of the key terms from the chapter you chose.
Define each term/concept you mention in your own words. – In other words, do not simply “name-drop” and move on, and do not merely restate the glossary definition.
Tip: How would you explain the meaning of the term if you did not have the textbook in front of you (or access to the internet)?
Underline or bold each term/concept you use in your paper.
Overall Analysis: The idea here is to “dig deep,” “read between the lines,” “go beyond the surface” – Get what I’m saying? Put on your sociological lenses. Pick apart your reference and find what factors are at play. Your analysis should provide context clues that contribute to the meaning of the concepts, which demonstrates, to me, your understanding of the material.
Explain how the reference you chose is relevant to the topic discussed in the chapter. (You may focus on the chapter topic as a whole or on a particular section(s) within the chapter).
Identify and describe specific examples from your source that illustrate key terms.
If you are feeling stuck, ask yourself:
What is it about this film, TV show, video game or novel that made me think it would be good to write about for the assignment?
Remember to think about the concepts discussed in the chapter – which ones play a role in this film, etc.? – how so?
How might this be interpreted by different social groups?
What could be the underlying message(s)?
General Layout:
The paper should be typed, 2–3 pages in length, double-spaced (between lines not between words), with 1-inch margins on all sides, and in 12-point, Times New Roman font (including punctuation!).
Citing References:
Use either MLA or APA format.
All work (words/sentences/ideas that do not come directly from your brain) must be properly cited with in-text citations, AND the end of your paper/presentation must include a Works Cited/Reference page (or slide) that lists the full citation of all of your sources.
!!! Not citing sources will result in a zero on the assignment, regardless of how brilliant your work is!!!
Hint: You automatically have two sources that need to be listed: the course textbook and the media source where your character is from.
You are not required to use additional sources but if you do, they must be properly cited.
Please reach out to me or the writing center if you have any questions about citing sources. -
Title: Summary and Evaluation of “Trajectory Guarding: Managing Unwanted, Ambiguously Sexual Interactions at Work” Summary: In the article “Trajectory Guarding: Managing Unwanted, Ambiguously Sexual Interactions at Work”,
I need 2 page summary and 2 page evaulation, total being 4 pages. It is on the article “Trajectory Guarding: Managing Unwanted, Ambiguously Sexual Interactions at Work”.
For the summary, the instructions are: Here state what you have read, by whom, in what source, and what it is about? Incorporate two direct or indirect text citations: quote/paraphrasing (see “ASA Format for Citations and References”in the course module, for the in-text citation examples!) . For the evaulation portion, the instructions are: Here discuss if the article information is important. Why or why not? What insights does this article add to your understanding and experience? Did you like the explanations? Are there things from your experience or understanding that could add to the author’s explanation? (Incorporate two direct or indirect text citations!). -
Title: The Intersection of Identity and Voting Behavior: Exploring the Impact of Education, Marital Status, Employment, Religion, Military Service, and Social Movements on Political Beliefs and Electoral Outcomes
An individual’s education level may have an impact on how he or she votes. How might other factors, such as marital status, employment status, religion, and military service, affect a person’s voting behavior?
Various levels of voting are associated with different gendered identities within race. In what ways might these patterns affect electoral outcomes? What does this suggest for future voting and electoral outcomes?
In what ways do your own political beliefs reflect your identities (race, class, and/or gender), and in what ways do your identities shape your political beliefs?
The labor and civil rights movements had a significant impact on identity and political coalitions. What other movements might have significantly influenced political institutions, identities, and outcomes? What does this suggest regarding the stability of political institutions?
Identity politics is a highly effective organizational tool, but identity movements can become focused on single issues. How might concentration on single issues and single identities serve not only to marginalize, but also to limit the effectiveness of a social movement?
The future belongs to all of us. Each generation, from oldest to youngest, has a stake in how well the political process operates. How might you, even at this point, become more involved in politics? What can you do within your institution or in the wider community to help support positive change?
Your initial post should be at least 500 words in length. -
