Overview: We worked through the writing process together, and it is time to submit a “draft” of your essay. I use the word draft, because writing is never truly finished. This is the most publishable piece you can provide at this time. We will be returning to this essay in the future, but for now, I would like to use these pieces as means of launching an informed discussion about the literature we have read thus far.
Directions:
1) Complete your essay and submit a copy on Turnitin.com
2) In this blog space, please post your introductory paragraph and thesis as a means of sharing your finalized concepts with the class. Of course, you are free to tweak and refine it as an abstract, as it will need to stand alone as a thesis. We will have a discussion and seminar on Wednesday.

Due Monday, October 15th - With a Little Help from My Friends
Directions: In this space, post your most refined body paragraph. Read each other's responses and give helpful feedback. Let's see if we can divide an conquer. Everyone pair up and help. When you finish, choose another to add feedback.
During our unit on Toni Morrison's Beloved, we will watch 13th, a documentary about the 13th amendment and the aftermath of slavery to the present. See the interview with film director Ava DuVernay and Oprah Winfrey, below.
