They say that it is unfair to use race as a consideration in admitting students to a college or university. But is this resistance to affirmative action justified? Despite ignorant dismissal of affirmative action by its critics, it’s clear to me that our society is obligated to practice affirmative action in higher education. The reason for this is that, since minority groups have been the subject of discrimination, these groups have been wrongly harmed in the past. But society owes compensation to any group that has been wrongly harmed in the past. Therefore, our society is obligated to compensate minorities. The practice of affirmative action in higher education can be interpreted as a form of compensation for minorities because affirmative action grants underrepresented groups greater access to a university education and access to a university education reduces the historic disadvantages that these groups confront in the competition for jobs and other social benefits.” 

Reаder respоnse—everyоne аnswers this questiоn  Of the selections we reаd, which was your favorite——and why? Be specific. However, if you did not like any of the works we read, you may also choose a work you did not like. Whichever route you take, give your reaction to the work you choose in detail. Demonstrate familiarity with the work. At the very minimum, tell me if you liked it, hated it, or landed in between. Draw attention to the specific part or aspect of the work that causes the strongest reactions in you. Mention specific plot points, characters, ideology (and how you see it in the work), or any other aspect of the work in you answer. Use at least three direct quotations from the work with page number citations from our textbook. This requirement for a textbook is listed on the syllabus.

Fоr questiоns 2-4, chоose one question to аnswer Depictions of indigenous peoples in Americаn literаture From John Smith of Jamestown to Nathaniel Hawthorne’s costumed parade in “My Kinsman, Major Molineux,” American writers have depicted American Indians. Trace the changing representation of Native Americans through at least four of the author’s works we have read so far this semester. Include some indication of why the literary picture of the Indians has changed. Be specific and use direct quotations as support from the texts. The American man (and has he become a stereotype) In this question, I ask you consider how early American literature defines the American man. Many times in our readings, an author has directly addressed a reader or otherwise firmly stated that author’s definition of manhood. Using at least texts from four authors we have read, explain what characteristics an America man has. Consider: Is there an ideal American man? What are the characteristics of that American man? Are there any author’s who offer a deviating vision of the American man? What are the positive example of American manhood we are shown? By that, I mean what are we told in the literature that a man is supposed to be? What are the negative definitions of American manhood? By that, I mean what are we told in the literature that a man is not supposed to do, say, or be? Does the American man become a stereotype? The intersection of religion and literature From John Smith’s invocation of God to Tom Paine’s propaganda and beyond, God and religion are always being mentioned in early American literature. Often God is mentioned as part of a belief system that is being advocated. But sometimes, God figures into the plot of one of the works that we have read. Discuss how mention of God and/or religion function in the narrative of at least four author’s works we have read in the course. Do people act in a certain way because of their religious beliefs? Does a belief in God cause a conflict? Is religion a plot point in one of the selections?
