Typically it can be a newspaper article, a photograph or series of photographs, a television clip, a website, any primary source that deals with the issue of labour and protest. Using what we have talked about in class, your texts, and your own analysis, describe how the source frames the protest, strike, lockout, rally, or march and provide an analysis of this source. Your paper will be brought to class and portions may be read by you as part of our tutorial discussions that week.

Cite Source, title, author of original source or and where you found it (i.e. if in collection cite collection).

Describe  content; very briefly describe the source. For example: “I chose a series of photos on the “Battle in Seattle that shows the labour march through the protest.”

Relevance of Source; This is the key part of assignment. Explain the significance of the source. How does the source aid in the understanding of the event, or perhaps it creates a misunderstanding, and the depiction of labour and class within the context of the protest being discussed? How does it frame the labour issues? Or class issues?

  • Who is the author?
  • Why did he or she write the source?
  • Who was the intended audience?
  • Are there any unspoken assumptions in the text?
  • Is there a detectable world view?
  • When was the source created?
