You will draw a critical connection between a specific issue in the Hindu religion and articulate your own perspective/position about this topic based on evidence that you have researched.

In this paper, you will select Choice A or Choice B. (choose A or B):

Choice A: You will consider an issue of religious conflict, religious prejudice, or religious injustice that you care about, demonstrating that we are either blind to religious prejudices because it does not directly impact our lives, or we are unintentionally complicit due to our own implicit bias.

Choice B:  You will consider a positive issue or resistance to despair  in the form of a story of hope — concerning human rights justice, interfaith understanding, or interreligious story of encounter — that you care about, demonstrating that this kind of positive story does not usually make the news, so we must make sure that we find a place for these stories to be heard.
