Subcultures

In this three-page (double-spaced, 12 pt. font) essay, you will be conducting a sociological analysis of a subculture of your choice. Find a documentary, docuseries episode, or piece of video journalism, at least one hour long, that documents a subculture of interest to you (see below for examples). You can use any streaming service you subscribe to or take advantage of free streaming services such as Kanopy (sign in with your Bruin account) or YouTube. While watching the documentary, take note of the three elements of culture: material, cognitive, and normative that are portrayed.
