What did you think was interesting?<\/div>\n
Did the examples remind you of anything in your life? in pop culture? in the media? in other classes? in our other readings?<\/div>\n
Did the information challenge ideas you already had? How?<\/div>\n

Why should more people read\/see this text?<\/div>\n
Why is this text important in today’s environment?<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Summarize your own reaction and leave your readers thinking<\/div>\n
Why is the text still relevant today?<\/div>\n
