You will critically analyze a piece of media through the lens of critical ethnic studies. This assignment encourages you to apply the concepts, theories, and frameworks learned in class to contemporary media representations of race, ethnicity, and inequality. You will select a specific piece of media, such as a film, television show, music video, video game, advertisement, or online article, and examine it through an ethnic studies perspective.

Analysis:
- Watch, listen to, or read the selected media multiple times, taking notes on key themes, characters, symbols, and messages.
- Utilize concepts, theories, and frameworks from ethnic studies to analyze the media. Consider how race, ethnicity, power dynamics, representation, and cultural appropriation are portrayed and addressed.
- Pay attention to the historical, social, and cultural context in which the media was created and how it reflects or challenges dominant narratives about race and ethnicity.
