@article{Cunnigen_2010, place={Washington DC: American Sociological Association.}, title={Racial and Ethnic Relations - Family History Paper}, url={https://trails.asanet.org/article/view/racial-and-ethnic-relations-family-history-paper}, abstractNote={This paper asks you to take the theoretical concepts of ethnicity, race, and migration and the notions about the history of race and ethnicity that we will develop through the first week of the course and apply them to your own family story. You should provide a narration of how you came to be in New York that stretches back at least four generations. While I do not need specific genealogical information, you should provide a general sense of where your family comes from and how you got to where you are today. In this narration, relying on lecture notes and course readings, you should discuss changing conceptions of race and ethnicity that have affected your family. These changes may be changes that your family faced when migrating across national or state boundaries, or they may be general cultural shifts. You should conclude by explaining how the history of your family and the cultural ideas around race, ethnicity, and/or migration have affected how you view yourself in the 21st century.}, journal={TRAILS: Teaching Resources and Innovations Library for Sociology}, author={Cunnigen, Donald}, year={2010}, month={Apr.} }
