The goal for this final project is for you to demonstrate what you have learned in this class about
social justice and to exhibit that understanding through a project that illustrates what social
justice means to you/what particular form of social justice you want to
describe/embrace/illuminate/educate/advocate. Your final project should be able to
1. Show an understanding of social justice
2. Illustrate a specific example of social justice that is meaningful for you
3. Contain a “Works Cited” of resources/texts/websites/media that you have
researched/utilized for your final project – you may use as many texts from our class as
you like, but you should also include at least 3 sources from outside class – sources can
come from a variety of places: the library, social media, the Internet.
Please follow MLA
citation guidelines/practices for any paper you submit.All final projects (and abstracts) are due on Monday, November 28 by midnight Mountain TimeOPTION 1: A traditional research paper (7-8 pages/2,100-2,400 words)
The central intellectual intervention that your paper will answer is: what did you learn in this
class? Keep in mind #1-3 above—this paper is not a summary of the course; rather, this paper is
meant to allow you to do a deeper dive into one of the themes of social justice covered in this
class or for you to talk about an issue of social justice that we haven’t adquately touched upon
(ex: discussing class inequality, while a running theme, is not a main focus within this class,
though it is vastly important to address class/income inequality as social justice).Include terms such as intersectionality, and make sure to answer what Social Justice actually is.
