As we learned in this video, minority groups are differentially imprisoned in o

As we learned in this video, minority groups are differentially imprisoned in our country. You are to create an infographic highlighting facts (outside of facts presented in the video) about differential incarceration.
Here are some questions that you may want to ask yourself as you think about your infographic design:
What facts or statistics discussed in this video stood out to you the most?
How do these factors illustrate systemic racism?
Can “primary prevention” be used to address justice system issues
Could rehabilitation services and restorative justice (as opposed to solely retribution and punishment) offer a better solution to help decrease recidivism rates. If so, how?
In order to create an infographic, you may use the following tools:
Adobe Photoshop
Microsoft PowerPoint
Microsoft Word
See examples attached.

Week 7: Roland Barthes and Denis Dutton
Roland Barthes, a 20-century critic and philosopher, develops a far reaching an all-embracing methodology for looking at the overall context of literature, and by extension, the arts in his seminal essay “From Work to Text.”

Read selections from Denis Dutton’s The Art Instinct: Beauty, Pleasure and Human Evolution. Pay particular attention to his Introduction, Chapter 1 (Optional: Chapter 2).
Instructions
Roland Barthes gives us a very complex way to look at creative things, be they literature, art, music and so on. In his essay “From Work to Text,” what are some of the approaches you could take? Make sure to explain what he means by:
The Text is not a co-existence of meanings but a passage, an overcrossing; thus it answers not to an interpretation, even a liberal one, but to an explosion, a dissemination. The plural of the Text depends, that is, not on the ambiguity of its contents but on what might be called the stereographic plurality of its weave of signifiers (etymologically, the text is a tissue, a woven fabric). The reader of the Text may be compared to someone at a loose end…
Likewise, what is Denis Dutton’s art instinct? What evidence does he use to bolster his argument? Do you agree?
