You are addressing two issues for this project-- Inquiry A & Inquiry B:
INQUIRY A: What is technoracism? What are examples of technoracism? Why do YOU think technoracism is something your audience needs to be aware of? Why is their awareness important? [You can use anything you have written and discussed since we did the group google slides]
INQUIRY B: How are Black digital cultures challenging and/or reshaping contemporary technologies? Why is this important to consider in light of technoracism? [You can use anything you have written and discussed in class on technoracism]

- Choose your site manager. This person is the glue that binds your webpages together so that your site looks and feels extensive and cohesive.
- Decide on the name/theme of your website. Site manager must write it in TODAY.
- Decide on your color and theme package. Site manager must select it TODAY.
- Decide on your logo. Start sketching it out. Site manager should upload as soon as it is done.
- Decide on the names of each main page TODAY--- they should sound/feel similar. Each person must write these names in BEFORE you leave class today.
- Site manager must change your URL based on the name of your site BEFORE you leave class today.
- Decide if you will use Carmen's structure or another structure for each webpage. If you use another, map it out. Start your design sheet.
- Come back Wednesday with your design sheet COMPLETELY finished. You will submit it in class. Start it now. No two people can reference the same reading or use the same image/video. The design sheets will determine this.
