Power:  The capacity either to effect changes or to prevent them from occurring

How is power used?

Economic use of power:  Who receives important resources and how those resources will be used
ex. Family; parents in power, control budget, what gets bought

Political use of power:  Who sets the conditions under which people are expected to live
ex. Family; curfews, limits who you can see and when you can go out

Cultural use of power:  Defining reality

ex. Media and schools shape our world views

Inequality:  Unequal distribution of values resources.  Societies formalize and institutionalize inequality

Intersectionality:  A type of analysis/framework used to examine social patterns and society and the social world (Have social hierarchies)

ex. White women on bottom of gender hierarchy but on top of the racial hierarchy

Perspective:  Interlocking system of inequality

Disciplinary domain of power:  Expressed through organizational protocol that hides the effects of racism and sexism under the canopy of efficiency, rationality and equal treatment

For your POL annotations:

There are two main forms of poetry: open and closed.

Closed form poetry, also known as fixed form, consists of poems that follow patterns of lines, meter, rhymes, and stanzas, whereas open form poetry does not. 

When writing a closed form poem, the poet follows specific rules to fit a model, such as a haiku, sonnet or villanelle ("Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night").

Allusion in Chapter VII of Douglass

This is a link to The Columbian Orator

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Columbian Orator, a collection of political essays, poems, and dialogues first published in 1797, was widely used in American schoolrooms in the first quarter of the 19th century to teach reading and speaking. Typical of many readers of that period, the anthology included many speeches celebrating "republican virtues" and promoting patriotism. The Columbian Orator is an example of progymnasmata, containing examples for students to copy and imitate. In his Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, former slave and abolitionist writer Douglass describes how he "got hold" of a copy of the Columbian Orator at the age of twelve, with far-reaching consequences for his life.

The Columbian Orator became symbolic not only of human rights but also of the power of eloquence and articulation.
