IMPORTANT! Extra-class activities

Ok, I am sorry but the Japanese Fair was last weekend... So, apparently I need a new method of scheduling! Then, your open option at the moment is the Indian documentary, with the new information I posted. I will give you a new option soon (hopefully correct!)Also, on Monday the class will be held in the Mini-Auditorio because of the registration of the Conversation Courses of the school. I'll see you on Thursday in our regular classroom.

IMPORTANT! Extra Class Activities

Dear Students,

I gave you an incorrect date for the documentary on Indian brothel children. This is the CORRECT information:

Wednesday May 29
5:00 p.m.
Miniauditorio Ciencias Sociales
Cineforo: "Los ninios del Barrio Rojo" (India)


About the other option that I gave you, the Japanese Festival, I am going to re-check and let you know tomorrow for sure because I seem to be a little confused about dates this week...

I apologize for the misinformation!

"Bordertown" Discussion

After watching the movie, read Chapter III of the course anthology, "Nationalism and Culture: Latin America and the USA" (pages 50 to 68) Then, extract three central ideas from the theory which can be illustrated by a particular scene or sequence of scenes from the movie and explain the connection. In order to complete your assignment, after your own entry is ready, read all of your classmates' entries and respond to at least one, whether it is to agree or disagree with the ideas presented in it.
