Think about the timeline example. Give an example of using your sociological imagination to better understand the social world around you and your own life. Remember, this is a discussion of private troubles vs. public issues – be sure to address this in your post. Include a source that provides a broader perspective of the public issue and how it impacts society as whole and shapes individual biographies. Be sure to reference historic, economic, and social events that have influenced your example, and therefore, your individual biography.
