Journal Assignment (3 Parts) A journal assignment is neither a diary nor a polished written paper. Journal writing focuses on connecting class activity with thoughts, emotions, and events in your everyday life. Journal entries will be collected several times during the quarter, but will not be graded until complete after the final submission. Approach the exercise with the intention of being challenged. Present your ideas in a coherent and thought-provoking manner. Link personal reactions to the class material, but do not just summarize readings and lectures. You do not need to answer all the questions or answer the questions directly. Instead, use the questions as prompts to get you thinking and writing a response about a topic related to race and racism. Each journal entry should be approximately one page single spaced (300-600 words). After you finish writing, go back to correct spelling, grammar, and other mechanical issues so that a reader can easily understand what you are trying to convey. However, you do not need to organize your journal writing like a formal paper (e.g. introduction, thesis, argument, conclusion). Try to make concrete connections between journal entries. Entry 1 Prompts: Identity and Racism Who am I? How important is race to how I think about myself? How significant is racism in my life and to other people that I care about? How has racism affected me personally? What is my comfort level discussing issues of race and racism? What is a fair or acceptable level of racism? What do I think about having to take a class about race and racism to meet a university requirement? Entry 2 Prompts: Experiences of Racism (respond to one set of prompts) 1) Describe and comment on an instance in which you experienced or observed a racist event. What was your reaction? How did it make you feel? How would you want to react differently to the situation? How would your perspective change if you were a person of a different race? 2) Describe and comment on a racial experience in which your intention was interpreted differently by another person of a different race, e.g. you said or did something that offended the other person. What did you say or do? How was it interpreted? What would you do differently in the future? 3) Describe and comment on an instance in which you were being publicly intimate with a person of a different race (e.g. interracial dating, taking care of a child, or helping an older or disabled person). How did others react to you and how did you deal with this situation? How do you think the situation would be different if you were a different gender? Entry 3 Prompts: Conclusion How have your knowledge, beliefs, or attitudes about race and racism changed over the quarter, if at all? Looking back on your previous responses, can you describe an instance in which your thinking about race or racism changed? What do you wish you would have learned or experienced that you did not? What would you tell an UCSD administrator about the utility of the DEI requirement and how best to promote DEI goals on campus?

Experiences of Racism

America has always struggled with issues regarding racial injustice and identity
politics (Perry, 2016). Slavery and immigration that took place in the early years of the nation
created an ethnically and racially diverse society. Diversity is a good thing for any country as
it gives rise...
