College Writing, September 22, 2010

READ:

1. RF Chapter 5

2. This is the New York Times topic page on Pakistan. It reflects the full breadth of issues that have plagued that country and focuses on its strained and varied relationship with the U.S. Use information on this page to supplement the videos also attached to this post. Don't get too bogged down in the people and details, just take away a SENSE of the issues. You never know when a current event may sneak on to a quiz. Here is today's video. Also for Monday, please view this video on reactions to Taliban in popular music.

Journal 3: React to what you watched and connect it to the things you read in the Times. What is your perspective about what is happening over there, especially in terms of the human rights angle discussed in the videos? What most affected you about the things you learned? Why? How does it alter your perception of RF? Does anything you saw today give you specific insight into your perception of Changez? Explain why or why not.

3. Revision of Formal Essay #2
