Assignment:

Purpose: These short questions will help you synthesize lecture information and think about the material. These questions are excellent study tools for you to continually review the class content and prepare for the topic essays. This activity can help form a tighter bond with other class members as we synthesize, debate, and learn together.

Tips: Make sure to answer every question. Ground your answers in the material from the lectures and readings by bringing in quotes, definitions, and key points.

Prompt: Use this week's reading and lecture material to answer the following questions. In this topic, we read about what ethnicity is, how to measure it, the connection to meaningful political communities, and the historical connection between ethnicity and politics. We learned about historical court cases, like Korematsu V United States and the Japanese internment camps in the 1940's.

. Identify: Three key terms and include their definitions.

. Reflect: Compare the treatment of Natzi Prisioners of War to Japanese citizens during the internment. What can explain these different treatments? Is the U.S. ever justified in imprisoning citizens without a trial?

. Connect: How does this topic connect to our three key themes of the course?

. Comment: Comment on another student's post that opened your eyes to a new perspective.
