Interpretive Analysis
Reviewer 8
The case study item sets don’t all show up within the individual item metadatas - for example, this is part of case study one, and directly linked on the HREU page. There’s another item that is regarding white waitresses in Chinatown, but there’s no connection between the items unless you look for them.
