Blog sub-topics

If some of you are having trouble coming up with sub-topics for your blogs, I've compiled a list here:


- How does class function in your topic? Is there a great difference between the wealthy and the poor? How is that represented?

- How does race function in your topic? Is your topic or cultural aspect limited to one racial group? What does that say about its place in American society?

- Is your topic influenced by the green movement? How so?

- How is your topic influenced by The American Dream? There are different types of American dreams, from "I Have A Dream" to the rags to riches trope. Are these evident in your genre/topic?

- Does religion play an important role in your topic? How do religious beliefs affect your perception of your topic/America's perception?

- Many of you are working within the media, how does the transfer of communication and information affect your topic? Is this a topic that has been changed by the internet in recent years / becoming more or less popular?

- What role does social networking play in relation to your topic? What is American about this?

- Does your topic have a specific political message or agenda? How is this message/agenda specifically American?
