COURSE DESCRIPTIONEvery individual has a unique family and community story. This class focuses on how to tell a powerful story rooted in one’s background, whether it is defined as family, ancestry, national origin, community, or current interest group. Initial research, writing, and craft assignments will assist students in developing their stories and grounding them in relevant political and/or social movements and ideas. Students will express their findings in writing, as well as in other forms such as audio essays, video, podcasts, or animation. Reading and other assignments will broaden students’ understanding of the multiplicity of approaches to telling meaningful family and community stories.
