Please save it as a Microsoft word document (no pdfs). Please also save it with your name and final as the subject.

Begin by summarizing what the chapter is about.
What are the definitions of reparations?
Who has argued for them, when and why?
Please write to an audience that you assume has not read the piece and has no familiarity with what you are talking about.
Then, identify what you think Robin Kelley is trying to say about reparations.
How are reparations a freedom dream?

Finally, you can spend some time reflecting on what thoughts this reading and its main points raise for you. You can do this in the form of critical questions, comparisons, outlining areas that remain difficult to understand, outlining areas that seem really interesting and/or important to you and why, etc.

When you ask questions I’m most interested in the kinds of questions that could lead to discussion not the kinds that have answers we could look up with further research.

When you use quotes in your writing, please give a source and page numbers.
