Assignment:

For this week's activity, you are asked to find and review a news article about Indigenous incarceration or restorative justice. Your article should touch on some elements of this week's discussions about restorative justice, Gladue, Indigenous incarceration, over-representation in the prison system, or healing Lodges.

Please answer the following prompts about your article in 500 words or less on the Graded Activity #4 discussion board.

Please make sure you provide a link directly to the article in your discussion posting and make sure to choose an article that clearly connects to one of the unit topics listed above.
Do you believe the article is sympathetic to Indigenous communities/offenders or what other stance the article may be presenting about the topic?
Please note if the article is written by an Indigenous author or not and if the author's background may have influenced the perspectives presented in the article and why.
Please consider if there might be any bias in the article as a component of your summary/discussion (you can investigate this by looking at other articles about the same topic and seeing if they have been written with a different tone or perspective).
Please consider how the article touched on the Calls to Action #'s 25-42 and #'s 50-56. If it has not addressed any of those calls, what Call to Action should it be considering?

Once you have posted your response to these questions, please respond to the posting of ONE other student. Please keep in mind you should plan to post your initial responses to the questions by Thursday of the week they are due so there is sufficient time for other students to respond to your posting before the week ends. Your peer response will be considered as a component of your grade for this graded activity.
