Blog Assignment - 10/20/22

It's another short one, because it's a busy week, but it's a two-pronged one.

Part One:  Pick one part of Ayn Rand's article, "Racism," which seems wrong, false, questionable, or strange.  Quote it (including page number), and explain what your problem with it is.  (If you've forgotten, the reading is on learn@uw, in a new section called "Readings."  You do not have to print out/bring this reading to class.) 

Part Two:  Write three research questions that you can see yourself working with on Thursday.  These might turn into your ten-page papers, they might not.  As a reminder, "Cancer" is not a question.  Examples:
* How do different religions encourage or discourage shame and shaming?
* What caused the Negro Leagues (in baseball) form and dissolve?
* What are the effects of social media use on college students' well-being?

Warning:  I will be allowing our Librarian to read these before you meet her on Thursday.  It's not like she's going to know who you are, but you should know that eyes technically outside the class will be seeing it.
