Watch Sayu Bhojwani's TED Talk, Immigrant Voices Make Democracy Stronger and write a response paper reflecting on the connection between the larger, public processes of politics and government and the lives and experiences of individuals within society.
Instructions
After viewing Immigrant Voices Make Democracy Stronger, write a response paper that includes the following sections:
Introduction: One paragraph that introduces the reader to the central topic of the perspective addressed
Main Body: Outline and explain the main message, argument, or problem presented, and connect it to key ideas and concepts from the course content, readings, and Exploration page. Be sure to use in-text citations formatted in APA Style.
Compare/Contrast: Briefly describe the components of the U.S. political system. Then, compare and contrast the immigrant perspective of this system with the perspective of those who are native-born American citizens.
In addition to your personal experiences, draw on your readings to present these two perspectives. Use specific examples to discuss current political trends, the political behavior of interest groups, and the ways in which interest groups either interfere with or support democratic government.
Conclusion: Reflect on what you learned from this perspective. Specifically, discuss how the perspective may differ from your own perspective, how it brought to light something you had not thought about before, or why it challenged your thinking. Be sure to conclude by explaining why this perspective is important for understanding the connection between education and society.
The paper should be at least 3 pages (the title page and reference page do not count as part of the page requirement). This should include well-supported and well-written information addressing the criteria outlined in this assignment page.
Please include proper formatting throughout the paper. Use APA Style to format the title page, reference page, and citations. Use third-person language, double-spacing, a 12-point font, and one-inch margins.
Papers must include at least three sources from the text, Exploration page, academic books, or journal articles, and sources must be cited in APA Style.
