The formative assessment for this module is your dissertation topic proposal form:Im currently thinking about focusing on Kurdish security actors, particularly the Peshmerga, and their role in the fight against ISIS. What Im interested in is how Kurdish forces adapted to irregular warfare and worked alongside international coalition forces, and whether any of this had significance beyond the immediate conflict.

At this stage, Im not trying to argue that the Peshmerga reshaped global military doctrine, but rather to explore whether their experience influenced how coalition partners approached irregular or hybrid warfare, even in more limited or informal ways.

Right now, Im working with something along these lines:

Main question:
To what extent did the Peshmergas experience fighting ISIS shape wider thinking about irregular warfare?

Some guiding questions:

• How did the Peshmerga respond militarily to the specific threat posed by ISIS?
• What role did cooperation with coalition forces play in shaping Kurdish tactics and capabilities?
• Are there examples of lessons learned from Kurdish operations being taken up by coalition partners?
• What does this case tell us about the ability of non-state or semi-autonomous actors to influence security practices?

The Harlem Renaissance was definitely one of the most cool, interesting, and important cultural movements in American history. It took place in Harlem in the 1920s and was a space for black writers, artists, and musicians to express themselves freely. Langston Hughes and Duke Ellington are a couple examples of those who used poetry and jazz to shop all of the depth and creativity Black culture had that was being looked over due to racism and segregation in the United States. I think the route they chose was really smart. They didn’t just fight politically, but used art, literature, and music to pull at heart strings and change people’s minds.They celebrate black culture, challenging stereotypes and showing America that African Americans were much more than what people believed. This method of change can be super powerful because it starts by changing the minds of the people, then works its way toward influencing laws and policies.

Even with all of this, art alone couldn’t magically fix the hardship and inequalities African Americans faced. The systematic racism occurring needed actual protests and legal action, which did come later during the Civil Rights Movement. Maybe they could have went further and pushed harder for reform, but protests and going against the racist laws at the time was extremely dangerous. Either way, the use of culture was a great tool to spread black arts throughout the country and inspire others to do something about the mistreatment of African American people. Overall, I truly think the Harlem Renaissance was a creative and inspiring approach. Even if it didn’t bring full change and equality immediately, it reshaped American culture forever.

Americans have been slow to develop enthusiasm for opera for several important cultural and historical reasons. First, to understand the issue, we have to understand what opera actually is. Opera is a dramatic performance where most or all of the story is sung instead of spoken. It can include many emotional styles such as comedy, tragedy, romance, or serious historical events. Because of the format of opera, these emotions, may feel unfamiliar or difficult for new audiences who are used to different formats, such as movies, popular music, or musical with a spoken dialogue. Another reason opera struggles in America is because early opera performances were limited and not widely accessible, opera performances were often confined in to small numbers of major opera houses in large cities. This meant that not many Americans had the opportunity to experience opera. Also very early operas were often performed in foreign languages since it came from European traditions, which made it difficult for everyday Americans. Opera’s reputation was often the entertainment for the wealthy or highly educated audiences, which made some people feel excluded or uninterested in opera. While this was happening American audiences were developing their own popular music traditions like, jazz, musical theater, and rock and hip-hop, also talked about in earlier chapters of our book, which was found more relatable and accessible for the Americans that felt excluded. Americans were not slow to embrace opera because it lacked artistic value, but because of its limited access, cultural differences, language barriers, and a competition between other popular musical styles that reflect Americans tastes and experiences.
