Q This assignment introduces students to the importance of migration and movement of peoples to world history, and introduces students to the final essay assignment, in which students will write their own story of migration. Your final assignment for this course will be to write your own “world history.” That is, as you learn the history of the world, you will also be exploring the movement of peoples around the globe and over time. For each unit, you will read about the migration in the era you are studying and answer a few short questions and gradually place your own story in the global history of migration. The final assignment will ask you to place your own family history, or the history of someone you are close to, in world historical context. That is, you will explain what historical forces led you, or the person you choose to write about, to where you find yourself, or the subject of your paper, in the twenty-first century. The history you uncover may be a story of voluntary or forced migration. It may be a story of migration that crosses oceans and national boundaries. Or it might be a story of internal migration. (As you tell your story, you should not divulge any matters of citizenship status.) If you have any questions about the assignment, feel free to reach out to your instructor. For this unit, you will begin the project by reading the article “Family Travels the World in Search of DNA.” Write a 150- to 200-word paragraph in which you explore what this family’s story reveals about the movement of peoples in history. Submit as a Word document.
