Project Summary: This is a visual presentation week, inspired by our film this week. Your assignment is to create a short video to emphasize social class at a particular time period in American history. In other words, we are applying the ideas in the film to the history of American popular culture that we learned about in our textbook. Choose a particular time in American history, and then illustrate the popular culture in that time period. What is the meaning of class? Is it about social and/or economic position? Income? Education? Prestige? Power and control? One's culture? Taste and lifestyle, regardless of income? One's race, religion, or ethnicity? One's job? One's self-image and attitude about the world?
