BLOG POST #1
CATCHY TITLE:
Do Something?
BLOG POST BODY PARAGRAPHS: (Broken into easy to read paragraphs, formatting font to make it easier to follow main ideas, etc.)
- Briefly explain why you are interested in studying your topic:
- I’m interested in studying this topic because I believe that it is one of the few civil rights issues left that are blatantly obvious that many people choose to ignore.
- The overall question I plan on answering by the end of the project:
- How does your sexual identity affect your decision making?
- Sub questions I will need to answer in order to answer the overall question:
- Interview Questions
- What does your sexual identity mean to you?
- Do you think that a person’s identity affects them in school?
- What about other areas in life?- home-buying, marriage, work?
- What does a decision mean to you?
- Why does their identity affect them?
- Do you think cultural or ethnic background of an LGBT student affects their identity?
- Do you have any role in effecting the sexual identity of other people?
- My plan of research (what specific Library Databases, specific websites, names of authors, people, etc. will I pursue to find the answers to the questions above):
- Specific websites used:
- Global Issues in Context
- Opposing Viewpoints in Context
- HRC (Human Rights Campaign)
- ACLU
- Center on Halstead
- GLSEN.org
- I plan on interviewing people from Exelon Pride, an organization that wants to inform people of the discrimination faced by LGBT people everyday.
