Reflection Expectations: 1 paragraph of personal connection/reflection and 1 paragraph of analysis (like a rhetorical precis but less formal).

Feeling Lost? Consider the following in your reflection: 

• How does this essay make you feel about your own material values? 
• How do you relate to Dumpster diving and to what he calls the "grab for the gaudy bauble"?
• Do you think Eighner's close attention to the process of Dumpster diving helps him make a larger argument about how the work is or should be, or do you think it obscures any larger point he might want to press?
• Further, do you think his attention to the process is less effective as an expose because it makes something that could be seen as the degrading result of larger forces seem more acceptable?

Consider the following in your reflection:

• The main focus of the passage is the process by which Douglass began to become literate. Who else in the passage undergoes a "learning process", and what are the results?
• Douglass's education is presented as both pleasurable and painful, opening up new worlds to him at the same time as it helps him to understand painful facts. Consider something you have learned that has beensimilarly double-edged for you. 
• What is the ultimate goal of learning? Is it to prepare you to do certain things, such as a particular job, or is the goal of knowledge for its own sake?

Assignment: Read, Annotate, and Reflect
Consider the following in your reflection:

• What adjective does Lorde use six times in the essay's one-sentence final paragraph? Why do you think she chose to use it so many times?
• Reflect on Lorde's use of irony in this essay. On one level, irony is simply when you say one thing and mean another, or when people in a narrative percieve a situation one way while readers know they're wrong; on another deeper level, irony is about how thigns in the world are widely said to be one way when in fact they are not that way at all. How does Lorde use the surface ironies available to narrative-- the ways in which things aren't what they seem-- to write about deeper ironies in American society?

Assignment: Read, Annotate, and Reflect 
Consider the following in your reflection:

• Holmes begins her essay in the personal, writing, as she says, "as an African- American mother of a brown-skinned seven-year-old girl," and brings in interviews and historical facts over the course of her essay. She ends with a scene focusing on an individual, but not herself. Why do you think she does this? What is the effect on you as a reader?
• Read up on the sociological concept called socialization. What are the different groups or categories into which individuals are socialized? What connections can you make to this story?

Consider the following in your reflection:

• How many examples of wrongs done by the Crown to the colonies are offered here? What is the effect of this list?
• Compare the Declaration to Orwell's "Shooting an Elephant". How do these two condemnations of the British Empire differ?
• Think about America today. From your personal experience and observations, consider how it meets the promise of the opening of the Declarations second paragraph and how it does not.

Consider the following in your reflection:
How does Anzaldua use definition to discuss her experience with language, and to what effect?
Compare Anzaldua's sense of herself as an American to Lorde's in "The Fourth of July". In what way does each woman feel American? In what way does each not?
In her discussion of moving back and forth between the varieties of languages she speaks, Anzaldua uses the term "switch codes". Define that term and consider situations in your life in which you switch codes.
