Final Reflection on literary representations of Protest and resistance: 20%
Over the course of this class, we have read from a wide archive to investigate the modes and means of literary representations of protest and resistance.
For your final reflection, write a personal essay describing how you understand the relationship between art and protest using specific examples from our texts.
This is a short essay, 2-3 pages, referencing a minimum of three of our texts. One of the three texts must be George Takei’s They Called Us Enemy.
