Racial Inequality
Identify an issue related to racial inequality. Create a 3-slide presentation that applies one of the theoretical frameworks in chapter 2 to explain the issue youve identified. Slide 1: name and define the issue you are going to discuss, providing some evidence to show your audience that it is indeed a racial disparity. For example, if my presentation is going to focus the pandemics disproportionate impact on Latinx communities I might cite the following statistic: Latinas/os are 18 percent of the U.S. population, but they are approximately 28 percent of known COVID-19 cases (Fortier 2020). Slide 2: name and define the framework you are going to use to explain the issue. Lets say I am going to focus on the systemic racism framework to explain the issue of Latinx overrepresentation among those with COVID-19. In this slide I would name and define that framework. Slide 3: apply the framework to explain the issue you have chosen. Continuing with my example, I would explain the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on Latinx community with the framework of systemic racism.
