ENVISIONING JUSTICE PROJECT | LINK
- What's Next with this Project?
- MONDAY 10/31/16 & TUESDAY 11/1/16: DUE DATE for Justice Definition and supporting quotes/citations. This is a graded assignment. Here’s what will make this stage of the assignment successful:
- It is completed on time.
- Your justice definition is focused and clear and is not more than five sentences. It will act as the thesis to your essay.
- You list and write out the supporting quotes and citations you will use to support your definition. These will be the quotes you actually use in your final justice essay.
- These quotes are relevant, well-chosen, and convey a supporting idea from the text.
- They will be listed out in bullet form.
- They will be quotes & citations from at least FIVE different sources covered in the class readings/materials.
- The Goals & Criteria and any other sources dealing with the Propositions/Ballot Measures are NOT class readings and MUST be quoted/cited as well.
- You will include a connection to your service internships and how that experience influences your definition of justice.
- Finally include Works Cited entries for all your direct quotes. These should already be in NoodleTools. Once pasted into your document, they will be properly formatted to your document.
- Do not just cut and paste the entries from NoodleTools. This will not work.
- You need to re-work the entries to match the text font/style of your paper as well as the margins.
- Often the correct italicization, indentation, margins do not carry over when copied and pasted.
- These is the option in NoodleTools to export your entries to your Google Drive. These will be properly formatted to most documents.

OPPORTUNITY for PREIOD G
SF Film society is screening the Senegalese film Black Girl on Friday 11/4 at 11am. Including travel time, students would miss part of F period, Advisory, and lunch, returning during G period. I'd love to offer this to as many students as possible across grade levels and schools. Do you see any potential conflicts?
Interested in collaborating? Themes that the film raises include immigration, racism, classism, colonialism. Students are also able to view related art at the museum. Read on for the plot of the film.
Ms. Heather Wells
------------------------------------------
This year's presentation will take place in collaboration with SFMOMA as part of the Modern Cinema Series. We will be screening Black Girl, by Ousmane Sembène. Along with providing an opportunity for students to practice their listening and comprehension skills, we also felt it would be a perfect film to help your students explore the current immigration climate of France. After the screening, school groups will be able to explore the museum exhibits. We will have some specific pieces from French artists to seek out as well as study guide materials.
In Black Girl, Sembène transforms a deceptively simple plot-about a young Senegalese woman who moves to France to work for a wealthy white couple and finds that life in their small apartment becomes a figurative and literal prison-into a complex, layered critique on the lingering colonialist mindset of a supposedly postcolonial world. Featuring a moving central performance by Mbissine Thérèse Diop, Black Girl is a harrowing human drama as well as a radical political statement-and one of the essential films of the 1960s.
Program Runtime: 65 min for film + any additional time spent in the galleries
Program Note: very brief nudity and brief scene of suicide attempt
Recommended Grades: 8th - 12th
Suggested Subjects: African Studies, Arts/Media, French
