The teams met today in class and mapped out a research strategy. Again, let me emphasize the point that your research does not mean you are not responsible for the information in then entire book. You are, especially in your essay where you need to be aware of the content that proceeds and follows your section or Loop.
Post your plans here, both group and personal essays. Next week you can post the outline after you have read the section. Please post reflections on the chapters in your Loop for others to respond to. Each student is responsible for posting a reflection on each chapter in his or her section and responding to the same number of others in their section and others they have read. Be substantive in your responses.
If you missed class you're on your own, unless your team decides to keep you in the family. You can stay in the Loop, your presentation will be as an individual though. See me if you have questions. See me anyway if you missed class, I want to make certain everyone is on target.
You have until October 17 to get in any outstanding assignments, which includes revisions. If you have not visited me at least once in my office to talk about your writing, now is the time: MW 9:30-10:50ish and by appointment. I am usually available for a short talk after class; if you let me know in advance I can give you more time.

Group Plan Of Action: Loop 3: THE MESSAGE: 1984-1992
We have decided to speak about the Loop 3. This loop has a lot about the politics, and racism therein of America culture. Also the involvement of hip hop; as a utility for racism, as well. The theme we will focus on is racism. First there will be an introduction to the era previous to the civil rights era. Then we will do analysis on the effects of the civil rights movement on the post era to it; the eighties. This will lead to description of how the stage was set for different epidemics that plagued the communities and culrure of hip hop in the era of focus; the late eighties through the early nineties. Our reference is expected to be from the civil rights era and the gangsta rap era; seeing that we are esentially showing the connections between the two. As we analyze there should be some social issues easily identified in the supporting evidence.
