Write a 350- to 700-word topic proposal introducing the topic for your final project.

Choose a salient issue of controversy to explore from your community, the nation, or the world.

Include the following in your proposal. You will use this information later in your slide show and speaker notes.

Discussion of how a feminist or postcolonialist (or both) would describe the roots of the problem

Discussion of the political or ethical theories that are in evidence in the controversy

Your proposed solution to the problem based on the readings and your own research

Description of why you think your approach would solve the problem better than current approaches

opinions. The following are useful resources that are available on the Multimedia page of the University Library:
