REFLECTIVE JOURNAL ASSIGNMENT#3
Some Westerns have explored inter-racial relationships between, for example, white men and Indigenous women. Many Westerns, however, did not allow those unions to last or be endorsed by white American society within the film.
Draw on your experience – from news media, recent film or personal knowledge – to comment on the following:
Does there still exist pressure for individuals to marry someone of their own background (be it from the same race, culture or religion)?
Which of the video clips in the Week 4 lecture did you find interesting? Why?
Provide examples as appropriate.
Entry to be 1-2 pages (250 to 300 words).
Tip
:
If a specific media source (e.g. online newspaper article) is used to complete this journal, please ensure that you properly footnote that source (see the Reflective Journal and Citation Guide info-sheets for further guidance).
(Provide full student name & student number on each journal assignment. Indicate any utilized Citation style.
Line spacing of 1.5 is adequate for assignments.)
