write a 5-page double-spaced paper in which you do the following: (1) assess the current state of public culture in the U.S. (please be sure to define “public culture” as you have come to understand the term); (2) identify and describe one reading, video, or podcast from the course that you think provides insights about how we can use the art of rhetoric to navigate public culture in the future; and, (3) offer at least one hopeful insight for the future of public culture in the U.S. and beyond.
