Multi Genre Research Proposal

I'm still not 100% sure what I will be researching, but I am leaning towards civil disobedience. I would focus on the impacts civil disobedience has had on society throughout history, and whether or not it is justifiable to disobey the law for a cause. I have found several documentaries and books on the topic, and I could "interview" my 98 year old Great Grandma who has lived through some major societal changes in America.

I am also thinking about researching feminism (unexpected right?). I would want to focus on how feminism has changed in America and internationally, and where this movement is needed the most. I have also found several documentaries and books on this subject and my Great Grandma could provide very useful information once again.

Let me know what ya think homies!!!

  2. Both topics are extremely relevant right now and could make intriguing projects. I think if you researched civil disobedience could go a lot of different ways with it.

  4. I like your ideas. I will be doing mine on women in the work place, so if you chose to do feminism we would have similar topics.

  6. The true "meaning" of feminism is debated constantly at this point and disagreed on so it would be nice to hear the history behind the topic and your great grandmother's view.

  8. Either one is a good choice. I can see you leaning more towards the feminism side of things because there are already so many papers about civil disobedience and that would become very mundane for you.

  9. You should definitely do feminism mostly because of the joke the women of today have turned it into.

  12. I think either topic would be interesting to research. There are so many different opinions on both civil disobedience and on feminism. Are you going to take the bias into account, or just look at it for what it is?

    1. I would definitely look at the bias. I would explain how feminists are viewed throughout the world and also give some examples of the differences.
