Cultures   in Marginalization

Watch the video and read the transcript of U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Rodham Clinton's remarks at the Barnard College commencement ceremony in New York on May 18, 2009, in which she comments on the marginalization of women and girls around the world.

Also read the brief article by Sonia Gill titled "What the United Nations Should Do: Marginalization of Women in the Media?" (Available in ProQuest)

Post your answers to the following questions:

  • Secretary of State Clinton tells graduates that they      are being prepared for "global citizenship in the interconnected      world of the 21st century" (para.9). What communication      skills do you think this global citizenship will require of you in your      careers?
  • Do you agree with Gill regarding the marginalization of      women in the media? Give at least one example to support your conclusion.      Do you think the United Nations should intervene in this issue? Why or why      not?

Respond to at least two of your fellow students' postings by Day 7. (You must create one initial post and at least two responses, for a minimum of three posts for this discussion.)
