Why can't I start on anything? It doesn't look like much, but I can't bring myself to begin. I just keep eating, instead. This can't be healthy. Sometime soom my stomach is going to explode, only so much will fit into it ;; How can someone a grand total of 49 kilos eat so much...?
Paper one: How the Civil Rights movement is memory work for slavery, discuss.
• Slavery closed a chapter before any effort could be done in changing the memory
• Different parts of the states remember it differently, was that natural development and forgetting, or was there real effort put into it?
• was the fact the no one thought about it beneficial? Or did the natural growth make later memory work useless because the precedent had already been set?
• They say hindsight is 20/20, but it that legitimate when compared with the faulty memory? How can we be sure any of what is said is completely true?
• Collective memory: which one counts?
Paper two: Different nationalisms in the UK
• Actually do the reading for that. Doing something to write it might actually help.
