ASSIGNMENT: Students will write a three-page (750 word) academic
research paper on a diverse, marginalized group of people in a Spanish-speaking
country.
Purpose:
The objective of this paper is to demonstrate
knowledge of a marginalized group in a heterogeneous Spanish-speaking country
by exploring the cultural aspects of the group that you choose, researching and
discussing its cultural contributions, experiences, values, histories, and
power struggles as a diverse group.
Audience: Your audience is your instructor and other members of the class,
representative of an adult academic audience.
Directions:
Guidance:
First, select a Spanish-speaking country that
you would like to research. This can include Spanish-speaking populations in
the United States. Then, research a marginalized group in that country that has
distinct cultural aspects that make them diverse and result in experiences of
marginalization. A group of people can be under-represented due to a variety of
factors such as their race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sex, sexual
orientation, disability, language, or class. Some examples of such groups are:
a.
the Quechua people in Peru
b.
the Jews in Argentina
c.
women in Mexico
d.
Basque speakers in Spain
Next,
write an academic research paper describing the experiences of this diverse
group living in a plural society. You should focus on the values and traditions
of the group you have selected with a particular emphasis on any one of the following:
a.
Political system
b.
Government
c.
Technological achievements
d.
Philosophy
e.
Religion
f.
Language (if this group speaks
a minoritized language in the country you have chosen)
g.
Literature
h.
Other cultural contributions
In your paper, as you discuss the experiences
of your group, be sure also to discuss what it means to be diverse in relation
to power, privilege and inequality in a society in which one is a member of a marginalized
group.
