Must include these two terms and make sure they work:
1. Linguistic reconstruction
2. borrowings (“words and constructions
borrowed through contact with speakers of languages from a different family”)
This final assignment of the semester is meant to help you to make sense of some of the key terms in Chapters 7-9 of our textbook and
to help you to contextualize all that we’ve studied during this time. Here is the step-by-step process you must undergo to complete this
15-point assignment:
1. Listen to the episode of the NPR podcast Code Switch titled “The Long, Bloody Strike for Ethnic Studies”
2. As you listen, take note of key players in the protest movement and of how they relay events of the past (try to write down
enough notes to help you describe how they speak of the events at CSUSF in detail)
3. Consider the question below:
a. In Chapter 9 of our textbook, we are provided various examples of “separatist movements” around the world that
are rooted in fissures occurring “along linguistic lines” (231). The writers go on to assert that these movements do so
“because the one nation, one language ideology gives any ethnogroup the sense of a right to their own nation, to
their own political border” (231). How might the historical events around the fight for ethnic studies within the CSU
help us to understand this assertion?
4. Your response to this question must be at least 5 paragraphs in length.

5. Your response must include references to at least two terms from Unit #3 (Chapters 7,8 and 9 of our textbook). For help with
deciding upon which terms to use, be sure to examine our “Vocabulary Word Bank” sections of the lecture notes for these
chapters.
6. When you include your references to these terms, you must take time to define them in your own words to show that you
understand them; once you do so, apply them to the case of the fight for ethnic studies.
7. Your response must contain a central argument and body paragraphs with references to the text and the podcast episode that
support your ideas (this means that you need a citation page at the end of your document).
8. Your submission must be double spaced, using Times New Roman, 12-point font; you can follow either MLA or APA formatting
constraints. Include a “Works Cited” or “References” page.
9. When you work on this assignment, you can work with members of your Home Group or with anyone in our class that you are
close to. However, you must submit your own response, and it must not be copied word-for-word from your peer partner. In the
heading of your essay, if you do work with a peer or with your group, add either the individual’s name or a reference to your
group along with your own.
