Proposal For Change – US English Proficiency Required – Need Within 7 Hours
Proposal for Social Change Assignment (See Calendar for Draft Due Dates)
Writing for Social Change is based on the longstanding tradition in Western culture of using
literature as a tool for social critique, as a means of calling for social change and justice, and as a

literary production in creating social transformation.
