Select two people and interview them about the cultural revolutions that have had the most impact upon their lives.
Create at least 4-5 questions to ask, and be prepared to ask follow-up questions if you want more information. The objective is to see the impact of cultural revolutions upon societies, but an effective way to learn about the view of a member in the society is to ask an individual.
You will not be required to prepare a transcript of the interviews, but you should take notes so you can answer the Assignment question.
The replies to the questions below, Part I and Part II, should be between 500-700 words.
I. One at a time, introduce the person you are interviewing and explain why you chose them for the interview. Then, summarize their replies and highlight one or two interesting ways they viewed the cultural revolution as having an impact upon their life. How has this revolution improved or made life more challenging? How have they changed? How has their family changed? After you complete these steps with the first interview, write the same information for the second interview.
II. Finally, draw conclusions about the process and the answers that were given. Compare and contrast the results of the interviews. Discuss what was similar or different in the replies. What did you learn about how these interview subjects saw their role in society? What is their attitude about the opportunities and challenges of this cultural revolution?
