- What are some of the race, class, and gender concerns addressed by social disorganization theory? What race, class, and gender concerns go unaddressed in the theory? (Hint: Be sure to include material from the main text as well as Anderson’s Code of the Street).
- Include your own overall question that you had about the readings.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Your response to each question should be a minimum of 400 words each, answer all parts of the prompt, use proper APA citation style, and is due Friday by 11:59 pm (CA time).
- Your question to the class is not required to meet the 400 word count. However, you are expected to give enough information to explain why you are asking your question.
- Demonstrate written communication skills by using complete paragraphs, accurate grammar, and proper mechanics.
- Draw from the readings and other course content to answer the questions. This means that you are expected to include direct references to the assigned chapter as well as other relevant course content.
