Extra Credit Assignment (Optional): DUE TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10Th

<p>Extra Credit Assignment (Optional): DUE TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10th Write a short essay that explains Social Disorganization/collective efficacy theory, using “Boyz N the Hood,” to explain the central concepts. The essay should also draw from Sampson and Wilson’s discussion of the intersection of race and social disorganization. In particular, discuss the role of “cognitive landscapes” and the explanation for how African Americans end up “trapped” in inner city neighborhoods. The essay should be a maximum of two pages, double spaced. The essay will be scored on a scale of 0-2 points. These points will be added to your assignment average at the end of the semester. In essence, getting a score of “1” would be like adding one point to each one of your assignments. Also note that a zero is possible—you will not get credit for a poorly done essay. </p>
