YOU MUST have your option FULLY written out and this heading/cover does NOT count towards your 2 page minimum. (I need to be aware of what I am reading at the beginning of the paper).This assignment should be posted in Brightspace by Friday 10/13/23 11:59 pmNO LATE PAPERS WILL BE EXCEPTEDCHOOSE ONE (JUST CHOOSE ONE) OF THE FOLLOWING OPTIONS!!!!!
YOU MAY ONLY USE THE POSTED IN CLASS QUOTES/PROVERBS OR THIS LIST
PROVERBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1. Apply 3 proverbs with explanations to content in any one of the assigned homework readings #1-4 and/or the MLK Speech on the Purpose of Education. (Please note which article you will use in your cover page/heading; you must use the same article for all 3 proverbs)
2. Compare and contrast 3 significant ideological similarities and/or differences between ANY two of the readings in HW #1-6 (not 4) and/or the Trump Rally (video) MLK speech on the Purpose of Education, the cultural psychology (video), Kai Davis This is not about my hair, A Girl Like Me (video), Principles of Environmental Justice, Four Arrows Worldview (You must note which two articles/videos you will use on your cover page/heading)–or lose huge points!!!
3. Apply 3 proverbs with explanations and ideas to one of the following videos: Trump Rally, Cultural Psychology Video, A Girl Like Me, Kai Davis This is not about my hair, Trump Rally, God Did, Ari Melber on God Did, and Jay Z verse, or They Schools Video (videos can be found in “content.”) (You can only use one video for the entire paper and you must note that video on the cover page.) Make sure you quote the text/video in your responses as a tool to validate your ideas and minimize ambiguity in meaning. Proverbs should be:1. Written out in BOLD LETTERING2. Interpreted (To me this means x, y, z…)3. Applied to the text. (The text states a,b,c, and this is like x,y,z) a. Make sure the language in the proverb is clearly integrated into BOTH your interpretation AND application. Make sure if you use proverbs that the operative words in the proverbs are engaged. Using only half a proverb will get you a failing grade.
b. Make sure when you integrate the proverbial language in BOTH the interpretation AND the application AND make sure that you make the proverbial language BOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!! In other words, whenever you use the proverbial language make sure it is in BOLD LETTERING IN THE ENTIRE TEXT!!!
c. Make sure that the interpretation is more or less distinct from its application. d. You MUST follow the following format for your submission of options #1 and #3:
Literally write the #1 Proverb, #2 Interpretation, #3 Application!!!!

The emphasis in these assignments is on critical thinking more than anything else.
For completing compare and contrast assignments (#2) please make sure each similarity or difference is clearly distinct and the subject is not something arguably trivial. We are attempting to engage ideas, while understanding how they become institutionalized and embodied in many different ways. Make sure that the idea or theme that you center as your similarity/difference is in boldface. In addition, a quote from the texts/video must be used to validate your similarities and/or differences.
