1- Browse through some local, regional and/or national newspapers and find a story in the last 5 years that focuses on race, ethnicity, gender, or sexuality. Relating it to concepts discussed in
class and in the readings (such as the process of ‘othering’; racial or ethnic neighborhoods; gendered or queer spaces; resistance and protest; bodily expressions of ethnic/gendered identity; home
and workplace issues etc), write a paper describing the ‘geographies’ (broadly defined, i.e. neighborhoods, spatial experience, importance of space or place) inherent to or behind the surface of
the story.
2- Use a double-spaced, 12-point type in a Times New Roman font and reset the page to 1-inch margins, and 1 inch at the top and bottom.Papers need a title, citations and a list of references used
throughout the paper(Chicago Manual of Style in-text citation method )
3- See the readings in the Additional materials. Note that you do not have to use all the readings, you can choose whatever fits the story that you will pick from the newspapers to make the paper.
