scenes from a film based upon a play that is relevant to the course
material, do scholarly research, or a dramaturgical analysis. The goal

among different cultures, and to examine the relationships that gender,
ethnicity and class bring to any society and/or any culture. You may
have an idea based upon a newspaper article. For example, the
controversy about the Washington Redskins team name is back in the news;
the proposed Keystone XL pipeline from Canada would go across sacred
Sioux Indian lands; any current theatre production, or historic
theatrical production of note, etc.
Ideas will be submitted in writing to instructor for approval. No group writing assignments.

so that was the prompt, and the topic i was thinking about is the interaction between people from different cultures, what are the impressions, the stereoytpes, how people react to certain things. I'd like as well to use some reference from my own experience since I'm an international student, also some references from the movie "Crash" since it talks about cultures and how people treat one other,
that's my main idea, i'll talk to you more in the chat box about some details that i'd like you to touch on.
