Suggest a topic...

[kwpnjumper55]

I have a paper due on Monday that I haven't started. The problem is, I'm having a hard time thinking of a topic. The topic should be a cultural topic that interests me, does not have to be nursing or medically related.

Help me out and suggest a topic?

Are there any current events that you enjoy following?

Right Now, I'm lucky if I get a chance to read local news. I haven't been following anything in particular

The "big" cultural topics that stick out in my mind are all the ISIS attacks/violence, and the shooting in Pasco (and other police news like that).

The Oscars had several acceptance speeches with political type messages.  Patricia Arquette spoke out for wage equality.  Graham Moore (Imitation Game) spoke on behalf of youth considering suicide.  John Legend and Common's performance and speeches featured civil rights, addressed the number of African American men in prison, and were generally pretty awesome.

What about something light like the how the weather this winter has meant no skiing?

That's a good topic.  You can talk about the possible downstream impacts we will have because of no snow. The lack of skiers to the mountains, less money for the business up there.  In the summertime are we going to be in a drought?

If you look at the skimm's posts for the past few days you might find something there?

That and the daily show are pretty much my only sources of "news" right now.

That's a major issue in society today.
