Take a deep dive. Explore, read, and analyze. If you selected a scholarly journal then hone in one article. If
you chose something more journalistic in scope (such as gal-dem or Canadian Theatre Review) select
three articles to read. If you pick the Mirzeoff text, then focus on one chapter from his book.
Finally, return to your image. Write a 500-word summary in which you take an observation, argument, or
paradigm from reading(s) and connect it to your selected image. The summary should also seek to answer
the following: What did you learn from the readings that you did not know before? What were the core
arguments or observations from the readings that stood out to you? How did the text shift your perspective
on your selected social movement?
