LGBTQ Rights and Marriage

Write an individual final paper (5 pages, APA formatted) that explains the following: a. Some historical and cultural context around your group’s chosen social justice issue. Present the landscape and discuss why this issue is important for society to engage with. b. Your own personal take or connection to the social justice issue. Why did you want to explore this issue further? How does your current understanding of gender and sexuality contribute to your perspective on the issue? Has participation in this class contributed? If so, how? c. Discuss the theoretical perspective your group decided on. Spend time discussing why the chosen theoretical perspective is useful in relation to your group’s issue and the action you chose to engage in. i. You should be explicit in aligning the components of the theory with relevant aspects of your social justice issue. You can also make connections to other theories we’ve discussed in class, if you wish. d. Then, focus on explaining the connection between your action and the theoretical perspective(s) you chose to connect to your social justice issue. You should be able to clearly show why the action your group chose “makes sense” based on the tenets of the theoretical perspective(s) you discuss. **For example, how your particular use of language in designing a campaign or hashtag aligns with/responds to being informed by symbolic interactionism.** e. Please note: these are individual papers, so you should write them independent of your group members. You will receive an individual grade for this component of the final project. f. Your paper should include at least ten (10) references, five of which should be from the academic literature (5 academic journal articles/sources from the library databases).
