Intro To Sociology Response Paper: Savage Inequalities

 

For response paper #3, you will write a 1000-word (minimum) essay in response to
the reading, Savage Inequalities (chapter 1) by Jonathan Kozol (1992).

In your paper, you should cover the following points (the points are numbered, but
your paper should not include these numbers or necessarily be broken up
according to the points-it should flow as an integrated whole):

1) Describe what initial reactions you had to the reading. Did you experience any
emotions? If so, what were they and why do you think you felt that way?

2) Where you aware of the issues the author brings up? If so, how did you become
aware? If not, what might have influenced your lack of knowledge about this
environment?

3) Identify what you believe were the biggest problems facing the children of this
chapter. How did their community and environment influence their educational
experience and vice versa?

4) Describe any theories, concepts or studies presented in Chapters 9, 10, 11, 12
and 16 that you think help explain this environment and the negative effects it has
on the residents. You must mention something from each chapter in answering
this question.

5) Discuss any ideas/solutions you might implement if someone asked you to help
“turn around” these types of schools. Where and/or whom would you begin with
and why?
