If you guys are bored as a result of quarantine/ social distancing, here are some shows and
movies that relate to this course! If you watch any of these and write up a short reaction to it (~ 1
page double spaced) I will give you extra credit. These dont have to be argumentative pieces or
anything formal like the response papers, just write something so I know that you actually
watched the tv show/ movie and thought about it in the context of this class!
