Cultural bias in America: A struggle for the African American Community

Order Description
This essay will allow you draw on and unpack key critical ideas you have encountered in this unit. There are no set essay questions because, in a Masters level course, you are encouraged to identify a topic which generates a sustained level of interest for you. Your essay should focus on an issue concerning social media which has legal and/or ethical dimensions. You are encouraged to discuss your topic well in advance of the submission date with your lecturer via email or face to face. Your essay should draw on real world examples, scholarly resources and media commentary to build a compelling argument and/or case study. It is important to bear in mind, as this course will unpack, that social media is a fluid and emergent media space and that many legal and ethical questions remain unanswered. As the assessment criteria states, you will be evaluated not only on clarity of expression, research and the quality of your argument but equally on originality. You are encouraged, using solid research and argument, to think critically and deeply about an issue relevant to the course and to demonstrate that thinking in your essay. For assessment criteria see below.
