Option 1: What did you See, Hear, and Feel as you watch the
film? What responsibility do corporations have to provide consumers
with the risks associated with their products? What are their responsibilities
for testing products? Is there a difference between what is legally required,
and what is ethically required? How can developing diversity consciousness
positively impact the situation(s) you have identified and reduce/ eliminate
the costs of inadequate diversity consciousness?
—
Option 2: What you See, Hear, and Feel as you watch the
film? “Free agency” of corporate CEOs – individuals such as scholar
Noam Chomsky remind us that we must differentiate between the institution
and the individual. Is there a problem when a “nice” person is involved in a
company that engages in some unethical practices? What responsibilities do
people have to call attention to or try to stop global and local workplace
practices that they view as unethical. How can developing diversity
consciousness positively impact the situation(s) you have identified and
reduce/ eliminate the costs of inadequate diversity consciousness?
—
Option 3: What did you See, Hear, and Feel as you watch the
film? Filmmaker Michael Moore felt that corporations and their CEOs
are “out of touch” with what the majority want, because the majority of
citizens are women and the working poor. Does it matter whether or not
CEOs know who the “majority” are and what they want? Include a
discussion of global dynamics associated with this “not knowing” and
perhaps not wanting to know? How can developing diversity consciousness
positively impact the situation(s) you have identified and reduce/ eliminate
the costs of inadequate diversity consciousness?
