Homework: Social Movements in American History Essay
To complete this homework, you have a choice of two options listed below:
I. This semester we have studied several movements. Using the readings in Bloom and Breines, as well as current news magazine and newspaper sources, write a 5-pages essay that describes the ways in which these movements compare and contrast with current movements. You can focus on any number of these movements you wish, but you must engage the text and current news sources to make your case. Compare and contrast these movements based 3 of the 10 questions we have used in class to apply to the class readings.
II. Or, if you like, compare and contrast 2 or 3 movements we have studied in class and/or in the readings based on 3 questions from the list you have. If you choose this option, limit your sources to the ones in the Bloom and Breines text we've been working from. There is plenty of material in that book to support your analysis.
Essays that incorporate ways these movements addressed global issues. In your conclusion include some personal opinion about the importance of these issues to you.
Be sure to have a thesis statement at the end of the introduction and topic sentences that are tied to that thesis statement. Also, ensure that your paragraphs have the evidence from the text that supports the comparative you make between these movements. Your introduction should introduce your topic and thesis statement (your argument) at the end of the introduction and your conclusion should summarize your paper's argument.
