Article to read for the Final Essay: “SAVING UIGHUR CULTURE FROM GENOCIDE”URLSAVING UIGHUR CULTURE FROM GENOCIDE
By Yasmeen SerhanReading this article I encourage you to remember what we have learnt in Chapters 2 & 4 of Beyond Feelings in order to remain as analytical, less emotional, and more open to logic and reason, than sensation and propaganda. You can take advantage of the other 3 essays you have read so far in this course and use those as your secondary resources. You may if you wish focus on Language and Identity – Language and Culture – Language in Diaspora when thinking about your Final Essay. In other words, keep Language at the centre of your argument. Keep in mind, this is a relatively longer article. So for sake of clarity and time, you are encouraged to focus on “PARTS” of the essay. In other words, you do not have to incorporate everything that is discussed in here. You will see a clear comparison being drawn here with two very particular cultural groups. You can if you wish take advantage of this and draw similar comparison between your own cultural knowledge/life/experience and what the article discusses. You can, if are interested in history, make that comparison with any part of human history and civilisation that you are interested give you deliver THOROUGH ACADEMIC RESEARCH and reasoning for your argument.
