In the novel, Wash experiences overt and brutal racism while at other times, well-intentioned (perhaps) white people are tone-deaf to the impact of their words on Wash and the potential offense and real pain their words bring him. Write a paper that explores racism vs tone-deafness in Washington Black. You may argue they are both examples of racism. Make sure to carefully examine his relationship with Titch. Then, educate yourself on societal white tone-deafness, and propose a solution that has broader implications for social healing. You should also take time to consider how Titch, though he physically frees Wash, is responsible for Wash’s mental and psychological oppression and argue whether Wash overcomes the oppression and how. (a growing list of potential research terms: institutional racism, white fragility, power of words, objectification, Marxism and critical race theory)   In “The Silencing of Black Scientists,” Edugyan asks, “If science is like a conversation, what is lost in the silences?” Write a paper that explores how the book answers that question by tracing the development of Wash’s voice. Educate yourself on other examples and their implications of lost black genius from history, and explain how these examples fit the broader “so what?” In other words, why should we care about inclusivity in the sciences? (terms: colonized black bodies, colonized black minds, lost black bodies, lost black minds, inclusivity)

For this paper, you will write your own literacy autobiography. What is a literacy autobiography? Kori Morgan provides a thorough overview for how to plan and draft your literacy autobiography here, “How to Write a Literacy Autobiography.” Morgan suggests that “Writing a literacy autobiography is your chance to tell a compelling story of how your past experiences with written and spoken words have created your present-day relationship with language.” link to read: https://penandthepad.com/write-literacy-autobiography-1490.html But this is a 21st century literacy autobiography, so in addition to writing about your past experiences with written and spoken words, you should also talk about your past experiences with media and technology. Since it is an autobiography, it is of course suitable to write in the first-person. In other words, you can say, “I.” Your paper should consist of multiple well-developed paragraphs. And it should include a clear beginning, middle, and end (narrative) and it should provide some key insight or conclusion (analysis).

Disciplines Incorporated: Religion and Psychology Justification: As more military personnel take their own lives, it’s beneficial to investigate whether or not a healthy relationship with higher power can alleviate the reasoning that pushes them to choose suicide.
