Post Reading Questions Week Fourteen

Hello students,
I hope you were all able to stay dry today! For Monday, please bring whatever drafts you have of your final papers to class; we will be creating a rubric on Monday and then doing some revision on Wednesday.

Post-Reading Questions:

How do each of the approaches we studied challenge the PIC?

What specific issues (i.e racial discrimination, profits, war on drugs, militarization of the justice system, etc) do each of the proposed solutions to the PIC address?

What actions, if any, do you believe that individual people can take in order to challenge the PIC?

Read this article about how California district attorney Kamala Harris has decided to not participate in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)'s Secure Communities program . How is this related to what we were discussing today? What do you think of her decision to not participate?
