| 1. Characterize Dorothy Vaughan from Hidden figures. When you characterize, you identify the attributes or features that distinguish an individual. Choose two or three attributes that you see Dorothy possessing, and discuss how you see that in the text. Where in the text does she say something or do something that displays the character trait? Bring in support from the text for your analysis but bring it sparingly. Choose TWO or THREE short passages (sentence or phrase) that show your observations of her character and discuss how those passages apply. 2. Examine the freedoms Dorothy is being denied and analyze how these freedoms impact her life. What barriers does Dorothy face and how does that limit her life and what she is able to personally and professionally achieve? 3. argue that there are still “hidden figures” today that are denied access to certain freedoms that limit their personal professional lives. Create a thesis statement that gives your overall evaluation of the topic. |
