Ethnic Clustering in Your Community
In Chapter 7, you learned about ethnic clustering. You will apply this knowledge to your own community (city, town, small town, etc.)
In this assignment, you will investigate ethnic clustering in your community.
If you live in a very small town, or rural area, where ethnic clustering doesn’t occur, visit a bigger place ,such as Cincinnati, OH, or any other place of a similar size. Look for the signs of ethnic clustering. Describe your observations.
Please describe the Cincinnatiï¼ï¼
In your description, address the following questions:
- Where did you go? Which ethnic, cultural group is dominant there?
- Have you found ethnic clustering?
- Why do you think most of the people in this area migrated to the United States? What do you think are the push/pull factors?
- What landscape elements do you think give this area a distinctive appearance from surrounding areas? Be specific—describe buildings, architecture, spatial arrangement, clothing, types of stores, food, and music that you encounter.
Module 6: Ethnic Clustering Grading Rubric
Thesis Statement Virtually all effective writing (academic papers, letters to editors, blog posts, etc.) presents, early on, a clear, concise, summary of the argument that will follow. This has to be more than just a summary of what the author will cover, to telling us exactly what they will say. It should, by definition, reflect the original ideas of the author. At the same time, it must be relevant to the assignment or topic of discussion: the context of the writing and its presumed audience. |
