Before looking anything up, write from your own memory of the documentary. Identify ONE specific moment, person, statistic, or idea that stayed with you. Explain why it stood out to you and what you were thinking or feeling at that point. Do not simply summarize the documentary.

Length: 50–100 words. Your response should include a specific documentary detail. ( 2 pts)

Specific documentary evidence or example

Now identify a practical strategy that could address the issue. Your strategy should identify who would implement it, where it would occur, and what participants would do.
