Details of Assignment:
Photos
You will each take THREE photos that lend themselves to sociological analysis of inequality: one photo should reflect social class, one should reflect gender inequality and one should reflect racial and/or ethnic inequality. These photos can be of people, places or objects.
Sociological Analysis
brief sociological image analysis for each photograph. Each analysis should be 300-500, Please paste your photos and analyses into ONE Word document and include a caption with details of each photograph (where and when it was taken, what it is a photo of) and your analyses.
Each analysis should evaluate the image using the sociological concept that the image reflects (social class, gender, race and ethnicity) as a framework. You must use terms and concepts from the class/readings in your analyses, such as: social class - poverty, life chances, status, class categories (upper, middle, lower, etc.), social mobility, culture of poverty, etc.; gender - sex, gender, gender inequality, gender typing, the gender pay gap, balancing work and family, patriarchy, etc.; race/ethnicity: institutional racism, racism, stereotype, prejudice, racialization, discrimination, assimilation, multiculturalism, etc.
All three images and analyses should be submitted to in one document. You should paste your photo into a document and add the analysis right after the photo, so it is clear which photo it refers to. Page break. Need Assignment Help?
