RE: Final Project Proposal

For the final project, I plan on doing a report about the Ka-TOON-ayan exhibit in the Cultural Heritage Center in the MLK library. The exhibit, which features U.S. Philippine propaganda cartoons, are quite controversial. This exhibit, which will be on display on April 27-30, is very important for Filipino, as well as Americans, to understand because its foundations can parallel the Iraqi war of today.

When I go to the exhibit, I will get numerous information about the pictures. Also, I will interview students who might be affected by the cartoons. Also, I can contact the authors of the book and get some quotes from them as well. At the exhibit, I will take numerous pictures. On the broadcast version of my script, I will describe the information about the exhibit and some history about the war. For the short information box, I will add factual information about the war.
