I would especially like you to consider the article Ethnic Groups in the United States: A Short History , our [ [ [ [ [ [ [ “discussions”] ] ] ] ] ] ] of Standpoint Theory, the contents of Allan Johnson’s discussion in Chapters 1 and 2 of Privilege, Power and Difference, the article How Nice People Are Corrupted by David Meyers and the video The Color of Fear. For this writing, I want you to consider the social location and situated knowledge of the men in the video.
Johnson spends most of his first two chapters discussing the what and the why.
Refer to SPECIFIC information from the readings and videos to support, illustrate and supplement your answer. Please cite—in FOOTNOTE format—at least four specific “ideas” from threaded discussions [posted by your colleagues], four from the video The Color of Fear and two each from each of the following: Jesus in A Culture of Fear, Nickel and Dimed and Hotel Rwanda.
