Personification- Occurs when an inanimate object or concept is given the qualities of a person or animal.

14 Setting The story is set in the late 1500’s mostly in the town of Verona, Italy. However, there are a few acts set in Mantua, Italy a smaller town just a few miles away.

15 Interesting… The Italian city of Verona, where Romeo and Juliet lived, receives about 1,000 letters addressed to Juliet every Valentine's Day. “Star-crossed lovers” refers to two people who are in love but have conflicting astrological signs. In Shakespeare’s times, people believed the course of their lives was determined by the exact second they were born.

16 Verona Today Today, Verona has an incredible amount of graffiti, which is legal, provided that you are writing about your love for someone.

17 Romeo and Juliet - Prologue

18 Research Paper!!!!!!

19 What is social justice?  Social justice is about assuring the protection of equal access to liberties, rights, and opportunities, as well as taking care of the least advantaged members of society. Thus, whether something is just or unjust depends on whether it promotes or hinders equality of access to civil liberties, human rights, opportunities for healthy and fulfilling lives, as well as whether it allocates a fair share of benefits to the least advantaged members of society.  Although justice in our increasing globalized society has advanced greatly in the modern era, there are still many marginalized people both in and outside of the United States who struggle for fair treatment on a daily basis. Fortunately, there are talented, dedicated individuals who are using their talents and passions to help alleviate social injustices throughout the world. Whether it’s through providing women with access to education in Africa, creating biotechnology for the disabled, or helping immigrants learn how to adjust to life in a new country, people are finding innovative ways to help those in need.

20 For this assigned research paper, you will choose a social justice issue from the list provided that appeals to your interests and experience. You will then craft a well-worded thesis in which you explain background information on the social justice issue, as well as the person, group of people, or organization that is currently doing something to address this injustice. Your thesis should be written in parallel structure and address both components of the paper: the background of the issue and those who are working to solve this important social justice issue. Your paper will answer this question: “What is the social injustice and how is it being addressed?” Structure of the Paper: Introduction: hook and ladder; thesis Background of Social Issue What a person, people, group, organization is currently doing to battle/to address the injustice? Conclusion: Call-to-action, if/then, solution
