We began class by doing a practice IOC based on a Baldwin passage. You worked with a partner to give the IOC, score each other, and then reflect on the process.
Then we began studying Beyonce's visual album Lemonade. Use the Cultural Analysis Questions as you take notes. Handouts on Warsan Shire, who wrote the poetry Beyonce recites, and Malcolm X are in your Google Drive (Malcolm X gave a speech which Beyonce refers to in the second song on the album). I also shared the prompt for the Spiderweb Discussion on Friday and the Homework Assignment (due Wednesday) to research one aspect of the visual album and take a page of notes. I shared a document called Opening Montage...in class students took notes on each of the images in the opening montage so that we could determine what themes, motifs and tone Beyonce was establishing. HW: Mini-research assignment (see above)
