For Wednesday 7/13

Please read the sections in the coursepack on Emmett Till and James baldwin. Specifically, page 26 "Some History of Emmett Till" and pages 27-28 "Notes for Blues". Also read the handouts I gave out in class: Michele Wallace's "Notes for Blues" and James Baldwin's "Black English". Write down any questions you have about that or the bell hooks video from last night. Finally, think about your paper in terms of the our talk in class about analyzing context of works and identify how 3 different contexts relate to what you're researching and post them to your blog. Note: I'll ask you about them in class tomorrow also. Finally, as a reminder, we'll have a guest speaker tomorrow: Kazembe Balagun, so please be on time and bring questions for him! See you all tomorrow!

Prof. Williams
