<American Factory> from Academy Award®-nominated directors Steven Bogner and Julia Reichert, documents the revitalization of one long-shuttered factory in Dayton, Ohio, while providing a startling glimpse into an economic overhaul playing out in towns and cities across the country — and the world. The film does not promote an ideology or political agenda, but instead tells a powerful, personal story about how globalization and the loss of industrial jobs affects workers, communities, and the future of work.
Watch on Netflix.
GROUND RULES
Appreciate that everyone is coming to the conversation with their own biases and unique personal experiences (remember our Identity Mapping exercise).
Speak for yourself (“I feel…”, “I think…”), not on behalf of your identity (“We feel…”, “We are…”) or other identities (“They think…”, “They act like…”).
Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Try to not make assumptions. Listen fully to what people have to say.
Avoid negative judgments, language, and name-calling.
Be open to feeling uncomfortable. Remember that all growth comes with some discomfort.
Stay engaged. If you feel frustrated or misunderstood, take a moment but try not to drop out of the conversation.
INSTRUCTIONS
Write an initial post that addresses one of the following three prompts. Your post should be at least 150 words. That said, the substance of your post is much more important than the word count.
Respond in a substantive manner to at least two posts made by fellow students in your group.
