Assignment task:
Posts should be around 160 words.
We are going to jump right into a news topic to share our perceptions, analyses and reflections of the Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first African American female to be nominated. *This is going to be a fairly loose discussion this first week.
Given what you have heard in the media, perhaps read in scholarly works, maybe discussed with friends, pick something to share that struck you as meaningful about this nomination.
"Some" ideas are: identity, symbolism, prejudice, stereotypes, role models, politicking, partisanship, equal workplace opportunity, diversity, racism, status, constructionism...
Choose your own news item (link) or just where you got your information. There must be hundreds or more articles, interviews, video clip about this.
