Description
Among other issues, each of the articles in this module considers how we might respond to the ways that social environments and norms influence us. Considering all that you have learned about your own and other’s identities from our reading (Brooks, David. “Honor Code, “Butler, Judith. ‘Phylosophe,’” Chira, Susan. “The ‘Manly’ Jobs Problem,” and Young, Vershawn Ashanti. “Prelude: The Barbershop.” ) and speeches by Amanda Gorman’s (“The Hill We Climb”) and Adichie’s (“We Should All be Feminists”), write a thoughtful and well-documented open letter to the audience of your choice. Your task is to write a letter that proposes meaningful action in your community. This may include thinking differently about an issue, acting differently by creating new programs, behaving differently as individuals, or reinforcing norms and behaviors already valued by some parts of the community. Decide on an audience to address who can help to improve the situation—your classmates; parents; younger (or older) students; coaches; administrators; teachers; church, city, or community officials—and compose an argument both describing a particular “tyrann[y]” or challenge and proposing changes that may improve the lives of those who endure it. Like Butler, Chira, Brooks, Young, Gorman, and Adichie, you may use your own or others’ personal experiences (including, if appropriate, those of the five authors in this module), hypothetical situations, and reflections to make your case. Requirements → Minimum of 2.5 pages 12 points font Standard font 1.5 spaced, margins are 1″ Use a minimum of 3 references from the module (from 2 different sources) Use a minimum of 1 personal anecdote Use Ethos, Pathos, and Logos at least twice each in your argument. Your letter should present a fully formed point of view – your original thoughts and ideas Plagiarism will result in a zero on the assignment (I will be using Draftback to check for plagiarism)

Can you be more specific about the content of your article? After reading it, I still have some doubts. Hope you can help me.
Your point of view caught my eye and was very interesting. Thanks. I have a question for you.
