The Experiences of Black Women in America

guiding question of your paper is, what are three things that you’ve learned from the experiences of Black women in America that you would share with family/friends and why?

You must use and cite two of the assigned readings. The best way to think of this paper is as a hybrid between a personal narrative paper and a traditional explanatory essay. Your goal isn’t to write a piece that is a 50/50 split between the purposes of these approaches to writing. Instead, you will have to discover a ratio that works for you. With these points in mind, this paper requires a formal thesis statement where you argue a point. One implicit idea you’ve been learning this semester is, not every essay argues for or against an idea. Some papers are expository or explanatory writing, where the goal is to provide an overview of terms, thinkers, or ideas. For this assignment, you will explain the course materials while answering the guiding question.
