Q Students will in 8-10 pages double-spaced (max) analyze your ancestral roots (culturally) where they are from (and as a result) – examining where you are from, and how you became to be who you are; and how it is that you came to be where you find yourself today (in the spirit of Mill’s concept of the Sociological Imagination) where history and biography intersect. Specifically, this research involves the following steps: Start with your immediate family. You may interview older relatives for information they may know for any important pieces of information that may lead you understand the social forces (history) that have influenced your personal biography. Please pay closer attention to specific experiences of your ancestors from the earliest date you found to the present, thereby examining what happened to the group over time in which your ancestor identified with or was a member of. Lastly, describe what happened to the members of the original “nation,” society, tribe, or community where your ancestors lived, and explain the manner in which they were synthesized into the social structure in the United States (such as immigration, colonization, migration, enslavement).
