Food and political | Article writing homework help
[ad_1]
Plan to write ~5 paragraphs for essay, or approximately 600-800 words. Each essay requires discussion of 3 examples (if you’re not using course content-based examples, you’ll quickly lose points). Use diverse examples from different readings. Prove to me you know and understand the content by using extremely specific examples from the readings, and by backing them up with your own analysis. Be sure you’re answering the final “why does this matter” questions at the tail end of the essay!
Your friend insists that foodways are “just food,” and that there’s nothing political about food. You disagree: “everything is political.” Your friend does not understand why. Using the example of the Makah whale hunt, and two additional examples of your choice from the readings, explain three different ways that food can be political in nature. Why is it important to understand food’s political dimensions?
