Problem: History

The legacies of racial formation are everywhere in our society, and our common understanding of race and ethnicity is reinforced through what we are exposed to through the media, culture, and institutions around us. An important goal for this class is to make connections between past and present, especially through writing.

For this problem you will select a current(ish) event/thing that can be connected to Frederick Douglass's speech "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?" from 1852 (Primary Source found in this module) in relation to the theme of race and racial formation and write a 1-2 page reflection about it. Your reflection should briefly (and I mean *briefly*) summarize the thing you are writing about, but most importantly, explain how it connects to the ideas from Frederick Douglass's speech "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?" from 1852 and your thoughts and/or reactions to it.
