You must identify the author's thesis (what Greene and Lidinsky call "the gist"), uncover how the key claims of that thesis are supported and developed, evaluate the conversational contexts of the author's work, and, at all points. Consider how your perspective affects your interpretation of the textrite a summary of an excerpt from educational philosopher Paulo Freire's famous work Pedagogy of the Oppressed.
