sociology assignment

In Module 7, you learn that social change is the change in a society created through social movements as well as through other external factors" (Griffith et al, 2015, Sec. 21.3).   Social change does not come easy, but has been successful in our country through social movements, which are "purposeful, organized groups that strive to work toward a common social goal" (Griffith et al, 2015, Sec. 21.2).  Individuals who promote and engage in social movements seek to alter the course of history rather than respond passively to the flow of life.  During the course of this semester we have addressed many social issues affecting our society.

All information must be in the textbox. Not attached.

Initial post (Worth 100 points)

For this assignment you will use your sociological imagination to create a "Blog" relative to any social problem/issue you find warrants attention. It needs to be original but can be similar to a current movement (ie. “Breast Cancer Awareness for Men”). In other words, it can be the same topic, just not the same organization.  This is not a report on a current movement. I have provided an example from a previous semester to show you what type of issue you can choose as well as the criteria for the  assignment.   

Each response must include all of the following:

• The name of your organization.  (ie "Sexual Assault Awareness for Men”)
• Write at least one paragraph (About 5 sentences) regarding your cause addressing the following:
• 1) Why is it a problem?
• 2) Who is negatively impacted?
• 3) What will your organization do to help spread awareness or reduce the problem?
• 4) From Module 7, what type of social movement is this?
