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?
