Paragraph One: From Reading One and te video lecture, explain Held’s five features of the Ethics of Care. What do you see as its advantages and disadvantages in terms of addressing particular moral issues (give examples of circumstances in which you think Ethics of Care would be particularly useful in addressing a particular moral issue, and circumstances in which you think Ethics of Care might be a liability in addressing a particular moral issue). Your examples should be related to racial issues.
Paragraph Two: Compare and contrast Nussbaum’s Capabilities Approach as described in Reading Two with the Ubuntu Ethical Approach as described in Reading Three. To what extent do each of these have similar advantages and disadvantages to the ones you discussed in Paragraph One about Ethics of Care?
Opinion Paragraph: Review the places in the video lectures in which specific case studies are discussed (VidGrid – Care Ethics Video Lecture and VidGrid – Capabilities Approach). How might Ethics of Care, the Capabilities Approach, and Ubuntu Ethics be used to address the moral issue of racial disparities in health care in our society? See The Intersection of Black Lives Matter and Public Health: Moving from Conversation to Action in Addressing Health Disparities | Government Alliance on Race and Equity (racialequityalliance.org) for more information on health care equity.
