Write a 6-7 page essay in which you explore one of the following topics. You must construct a specific and argumentative thesis statement that clearly states your own
opinion. You should still utilize the analytical skills that you have been developing; in addition, you will use outside research to provide further evidence of your
argument. Thus, your objective is primarily a paper involving close analysis and secondarily a research paper.
1. What existing myths or stereotypes is the text addressing? In what way does the text rewrite those myths/stereotypes?
2. What are the tensions that exist between generations? What does a generation learn from the preceding one? How does a person’s culture affect the way s/he interacts
with his/her family and/or parents?
3. In what way has the dominant culture influenced and shaped other cultures? How do minorities adapt to the dominant culture (e.g. physical characteristics,
language, ideology, etc.)?
4. How do oppressed peoples feel empowered? What are their sources of strength?
5. What are the tensions and difficulties involved with living in more than one culture? How are these cultures negotiated?
*Research a minimum of seven sources not including encyclopedias, dictionaries, and other general resources.
* At least two sources must include historical information about the time and place in which each text is set (not necessarily when/where the text was written).
* At least three sources must be current (2008 or more recent).
When you submit your final draft of your research paper, include
a. The paper itself
b. An updated bibliography that notes all 7 secondary sources as well as your primary sources (include this even if you already submitted it earlier)
c. A works cited page that includes ONLY the sources you directly used in your paper (including both primary and secondary sources)
Logistics: * All papers must be typed and double-spaced. Papers should have 1” margins on all sides and standard 12 pt. font should be used.
* The paper should include an informative and interesting title.
* Papers must be a minimum of five pages (not including the heading and title).
LAST BUT NOT LEAST: You must use one of the text I provided and at least 7 outside researches.
I will send the text separately and you only need to use one or two not all to work on the topics.
Strictly 6-7 pages. Don’t exceed the limit. Not included bibliography.
If you need anything else, contact me.
Thank you!
