This has to be the most ridiculous question I've seen on this forum.

Don't you know that "autobiographical" means the story of YOUR life?

Ms. Sue, I agree that this is a ridiculous assignment. However if I choose not to do the assignment I would still pass but with a C- as this is 25% of my grade. Therefore, I must do it, to obtain the grade I wish to have.

I have searched sites on how to format this assignment and ideas on how to answer the questions that seem simple enough. But how does one answer these questions yet alone do the assignment when they do not socialize with people in their neighborhood? Or pay attention to race within the community? I am one of those who have never personally experienced racial issues. I have only heard of them. Therefore I am having a difficult time completing this assignment because of this(mainly the word amount). Any suggestions?

Hello Dee & Sue

I totally agree also this assignment is totally ridiculous, that's why I'm online now still trying to come up with ideas. Not only do I not socialize with people in my neighborhood/community on a day to day basis, when we are socializing race/rationalization is not the prime subject. Dee my advice to you is try using your workplace or children school if either apply, that's what I'm going to try...I will still find myself making stuff up, and what makes it even worse is this has to be in PowerPoint with references...How do you find references from first hand accounts..especially if you made it up???

Communities are situated close to churches, people go to them, all types of people.Who are the community learders at a particular church, who does what for the community, might be a good place to start.
