Notes

I need to approve the book before you start reading.

The Known World essays are in and students are ready to move on. If any revisions are still required, turn them in ASAP.

Social Entrepreneur Essay
Our last essay, the Social Entrepreneur Essay planning is due mid-November for peer review. Choose an artist who is using their work for social change, to interrupt the status quo re: entitlement and privilege especially entitlement based on race, gender and class.

The Angry Black White Boy
This essay will be our final and is due with the portfolio, so there will still be a social entrepreneur essay due. This essay will profile an artist who is using his or her work for social change.

I will give you essay questions in December for the Angry Black White Boy. In the meantime, we will read the play based on the novel.

Portfolio
We will start reviewing the portfolio process in November. We will not have an in-class final. The portfolio is due by December 15 via email coasabirenglish1B@gmail.com

More later on the portfolio.
