In your paper where relevant, tell me about the significance of social movements as discussed in Module 14 and varying documentaries and articles. We have watched documentaries addressing a few issues relevant to them. Tell me of Bill McKibben and direct action to address climate breakdown taken by him and his colleagues at 350.org? What is the significance of “the math” causing the mobilization of college and university students around the country? Considering other social movements occurring in US society today that are highlighted in our nightly news (for example: Culture, Same Sex marriage, Native American Mascots Debate, Gun violence and Cease Fires in Baltimore and beyond, modernization vs dependency theory, Race/ Hate Crimes, Confederate flag debate, Gentrification, Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) or what is more commonly known as Domestic Abuse, environmental racism, the me too movement, the March for our lives movement, #muteRKelly movement, , #NoBanNoWall, Hyper-masculinity and violence, etc) how best are you to utilize this 8 weeks course long after you’ve moved beyond it.
Perhaps Put another way, we have looked at a number of case studies this semester. Survey the course with the most significant theories, themes and case studies from your perspective and why. In the paragraph(s) leading up to your conclusion, tell me what “educated” persons doing about contemporary social problems regarding race/ ethnicity, gender, deviance, and the intergenerational tyranny associated with the externalities of environmental degradation. Considering the 16 weeks of this course, and the contemporary social problems impacting Baltimore, and the world, how can students of sociology make this course about something more than just a grade ie: what is the role of the educated person who has sociological tools and knowledge?
