Project Assignments

Here is the schedule for the presentations; I have assigned you a broad topic and a partner based on your preferences (when possible). Your next step is to meet with your partner and discuss a specific topic for your project. For instance, if you were assigned film, you need to choose a film that depicts slavery; some examples might be Beloved or Gone with the Wind.

The next deadline coming up is 10/2, when you must turn in your prospectus.
