How have the experiences of the community(ies) represented in the current event been represented (or not represented) in “official” human rights discourse to date? What has been/could have been done to address the human rights violations depicted in the current event?

2. Make specific connections between the current event and topics/events/ideas covered in lectures. You can cite the lecture using a parenthetical reference, ie (IS 16 Lecture, Title (from syllabus), date).

3. Make specific connections between the current event and key terms/concepts from the readings.
