Anthropology opportunity:
We invite you to join us and listen to our African students from Madison High School to share their personal struggles and barriers which they face. They will discuss the challenges of living in a White society, while simultaneously maintaining their own unique cultural identity.  Their stories of destitute & hope and the struggles of balancing completely different cultures from their home and school environments are some of the challenges they face on a daily basis.  This discussion will be facilitated by the Equity & Partnership Department with the support of our community partners.

When: Thursday, April 21, 2016
Time: 4:30-6:00 pm
Where: BESC Boardroom (The District Office near the Rose Quarter)

For Tuesday, following our previous schedule, please have the chapter 3 questions ready to turn in; I am looking for enough notation to allow for discussion of the chapter and the Freakonomics excerpt.

In addition, for chapter 4, in place of discussion questions, you will be pulling significant quotes - 1 for every 3 pages - 20 passages total.  We will be using these to do a creative writing for Thursday.
