Discuss on what is humanitarian attention and humanitarian appeals.A 2-page micropaper (double-spaced, 12pt font, numbered pages). This will be 10% of your overall grade.
These micropapers serve as the basis for the class discussion, your group presentations, and also as independent records of your thinking.
Humanitarian attention and humanitarian appeals are split between multiple crises and multiple needs. You have to make an argument to President Biden as to why any humanitarian funds that the United States offers should prioritize one or the other of the two countries: Afghanistan or Ukraine. The President has to pick either Afghanistan or Ukraine. In your argument you must touch on racialization of aid, critical arguments about the use of imagery and narrative of aid, and justify empirically and ethically why Afghanistan or Ukraine deserves priority. You must integrate a podcast or a movie that has been assigned in Weeks 6-10.
