Chicanx/Latinx Cinema Assignment

Familism refers to the centrality of and loyalty to the family and to the prioritizing of family unity and needs over individual members’ interests and needs. This concept has the potential to be detrimental since patriarchal privilege is present in many Latinx families. Familism reinforces hierarchical power relations that encourage women to act
“for the good of the family” and can also lead to rejection of and violence against sons who do not conform to heterosexist ideals (Alcalde, p. 541). How are these aspects of familism depicted in La Mission? Your response should be making specific reference to at least two scenes from the film to be considered complete.

Cause and Effect

Chapters 6 – 10
History is often viewed as a story of cause and effect. Every historical event occurred because of another event (or a series of events) that happened beforehand. Things that directly lead to another event are considered ‘Causes’ and those subsequent events are considered ‘Effects’. In this discussion board, we will consider chapters 1 – 5 of our textbook through the lens of ‘Cause and Effect’:

How did the slave trade compromise that helped form the Constitution effect the issue of slavery in the days of the early Republic? Hint: consider how this compromise allowed the issue of slavery to perpetuate.

How did the rise of the ‘Cotton Kingdom’ impact the fight for political power? Hint: The Missouri Crisis is a good example.

How did the social issues of early eighteenth-century America lead to the Second Great Awakening? What were the effects of this religious reform movement?

Elaborate on your answers.

Summative Paper #2

Throughout the course of American history, the issues of race, gender, national identity, and politics have been constant, yet evolving. During this course, you will be required to write three short summative papers that present your understanding of these issues and their evolving narratives during the periods in study. Some periods of American history might focus more on some issues than others (e.g. slavery & race), but all of these issues have an ever-present narrative.

Using the American Yawp textbook as your reference, please write a 2–3-page, double-spaced paper that summarizes the following issues and their evolving narratives starting from the birth of ‘The New Nation’ through the period of ‘Religion & Reform’:

Race
Gender
National Identity
Politics

Focus on the key developments or turning points of these issues. Envision how they were both present and significant during the course of American history. Consider how these issues “change” or “evolve” from the birth of The New Nation through the period of Religion & Reform. Here some examples of talking points that your papers can address:

How was race viewed and addressed in the New Nation compared to the period of Religion & Reform? What were some glaring differences?

Did the role of women evolve from the early days of the New Nation to the period of Religion & Reform? How so?

What did “national identity” mean in the New Nation? Was this meaning the same for everyone? (Consider gender and race).

Describe American politics in the New Nation? What were some successes or failures?

These are examples of some of the questions that you might consider address during your writing. You do not have to use these same questions or talking points. Address whatever you think is relevant and important. Again, some of these issues might be more prominent than others during certain periods of American history. If this is the case, focus more on those issues that were prominent. The purpose of these papers is to have you show your recognition of these issues throughout American history and evaluate their changing narratives.
