Our Core discussions don’t have to end when we leave the classroom. Let’s keep talking! Feel free to post comments on the readings and the films, your insights into the course topics, any questions you might have about what we’re discussing, etc. This blog is for everyone enrolled in Core–all sections of the course–and its purpose is to provide a place for all of us to continue the conversation and perhaps hear some voices we haven’t heard before. I’ll post some topics here periodically, but feel free to do yourself, too.
So–what do you want to talk about?
“Theme for English B”?
“Corn Mother”?
“Old Man Coyote Makes the World”?
Genesis?
Already, we’ve got an interesting list of texts, don’t we?
Let’s hear some of your reactions to the Native American creation stories. Are they radically different from the one(s) you already knew? Are they similar in some way(s) to anything you’ve heard before?
