1) Describe one outside (of the school) barrier or one inside (of the school) barrier that students in East St. Louis, Illinois in the Kozol reading Savage Inequalities encounter and discuss how it is an educational inequality that these students experience. 2) Describe one outside (of the school) barrier or one inside (of the school) barrier that students in Detroit Public Schools encounter and discuss its impact as an educational inequality that these students experience. 2b) How were these educational inequalities that you discussed regarding Detroit Public Schools are either similar or different from the inequalities you discussed regarding the students at East St. Louis? 3) During the lecture I introduced the concepts of social capital and cultural capital. In the In the documentary “A National Disgrace” we are introduced to a student named Deanna who is struggling with her educational experience within the Detroit Public School (DPS) system. Deanna’s educational experience becomes so dire that her previously articulated dreams of going to college seem like they might not materialize (or come into existence). However, in the end, we see that Deanna does get accepted and go off to college. Use one of the forms of capital (social or cultural) to analyze Deanna’s ‘situation’ regarding Deanna’s family, Dan Rather and his production team, and her educational outcome of attending college in the fall. That is, use the concept of social capital or cultural capital to analyze and explain how Deanna went from likely not attending college (and possibly dropping out of school) to applying and being admitted to the college in the fall semester. (Hint: pay particularly close attention during the timestamp 1:34:05 – 1:38:30) Instructions: Write a 1-2 page paper that addresses each section below. In terms of how to structure your paper, I think it might be useful to write a separate paragraph (or two) to answer each section. You do not need to number each paragraph but try to answer each section in the order they are presented and that should give your paper a nice structure and flow. Each paper should be 1-2 pages, double-spaced and 12 pt. font.

Title: The Impact of Violence and Sexism in the Hip-Hop Music Industry

Watch this movie and answer the 5 questions 1) Why do young males appear overly concerned with manhood and violence? 2) Do you think that violence in the hip-hop music industry promotes violence in real life? Or maybe it is completely wrong; what is entertainment, remains just entertainment meaning the violence proliferated in the music videos is just another item to increase the sale of the product? 3) Is violence against women a major concern for women of color? Should it be or must we deal with violence and poverty in black communities before we speak about sexism? 4) Who do you think is most responsible for the sexist images appearing in the music industry, males or females? Do females contribute with their roles as “scantily clothed” and easily offered individuals? 5) Who makes the most profit in the industry? Do you think black males have a say in what kind of music gets proliferated? If you are a black male in the hip-hop music industry and you know that what sells best is a hardcore violent video with sexually objectified women appearing in the background, would you feel comfortable going through with it knowing that your children sooner or later will be able to access the song?
