Main Question please Note: This week’s assignment is a case study about people who were agents of moral change. For either of this week’s assignment options, students are instructed to engage in their own research. One or more primer articles have been provided to start your research. However, students are to include a minimum of two unique, external articles which pertain to their study subject. Students may use Wikipedia as a reference for this assignment. Specifically, for either of these assignments, students are to use and cite two external documents, at least one Primer (or provided article), the article by Oldenquist, or Kluger, or Tomasellos, and an assigned reading article from a previous week. If you have questions, please ask.

Option One: Research the life and accomplishments of one of the following moral agents of change: Malala Yousaf Zai, Standing Bear, W.E.B. Du Bois, Mitsuye Endo, Hannah Arendt, or Cesar Chavez. For this assignment, examine the life and actions of your chosen individual and then answer the following questions:

- What value(s) did your research subject demonstrate?

- How did this value help them become a moral agent of change?

- What can we learn from this model citizen?

- How can we use our choices and behaviors to set positive examples for others?

- How might ordinary citizens become extraordinary moral agents of change?

Format guidelines include the 3+1 rule, with the essay organized as follows:

1. Introduction with a summary and thesis statement.

2. Body paragraphs, each discussing one aspect supporting the thesis.

3. Conclusion summarizing the discussion.

4. References in APA format with in-text citations.

Use at least three of the week’s readings as references:

- On the Nature of Citizenship, Andrew Oldenquist

- What Makes Us Moral, Jeffrey Kluger, Tiffany Sharples, Alexandra Silver

- How We Learned to Put Our Fate in One Another’s Hands, Michael Tomasello

Additional readings from last week are optional, for example:

- Globalization is Good for You, Ronald Bailey

- Fortnite's Digital Goods Are Key to the Future of Global Trade, Shawn Donnan

In your essay, explore the key moral values demonstrated by the individual, analyze how these values contributed to their role as moral agents, and reflect on how ordinary individuals can emulate such change. Incorporate scholarly research, critical thinking, and proper APA citations.
