Reflect on your readings from last week and also listen to this story on NPR on the “Lost Generation of Workers”. Be sure to listen to the story from the vantage point of race and class. Click here for the NPR story (Links to an external site.)
You now have enough information from last week and this week to compose your briefing paper to United States Secretary of Labor. First learn a little about the Secretary. Click here for his bio (Links to an external site.)
Now that you have read the data on youth employment I want you to write a briefing paper to the Secretary this week. This briefing paper is to prepare him to address the challenges of young people, race, class and unemployment. As Secretary of Labor this is part of his job, and you get to help shape his thinking!
So how will you do it?You want to think about last week and this weeks readings/videos. What is the most important point (or points) that you think the Secretary of Labor should know? And what do you want him to know about it? And what do you think he should do about it (based on the evidence in the readings)?
State your main points, using evidence to support them, and then provide the Secretary with ways to address the challenges. Be specific throughout your paper and be direct.
