The contents of the 5-minute presentation should revolve around these questions: What conversation about <em>Fun Home <\/em>is the essay intervening into? What is the author&#8217;s central claim? What&#8217;s at stake with the author&#8217;s claim? Why does it matter? How does the author back it up?
