Assignment: Based on your study of the primary source collection edited by Joel Sipress, analyze a focused topic related to the social crisis of the 1960s. Be sure to start the paper by placing your topic in its historical context and use both primary sources and secondary sources (i.e., the introductory essay and the Locke and Wright textbook) to support your arguments. Students will use a minimum of four separate written primary sources from the Sipress collection for the essay.
For this essay, students are required to use a minimum of TWO books to complete the essay:
• Joel Sipress, Fire in the Streets: The Social Crisis of the 1960s. Be sure to use the second entry format for subsequent citations after the first complete citation of a source.
• Joseph Locke and Ben Wright, The American Yawp.
• Students may additional secondary sources from the FP University library and/or interlibrary loan: scholarly books or scholarly journal articles. See the library catalog for books and the Academic Search Complete and the JSTOR databases for journal articles.
• See the materials cited by the editor in the additional sources section as needed.
• Note: Outside internet websites will not be used for this paper.
• When referring to an individual primary source, note the author and title first and then the publication information for the collection. When citing a primary source a second time, use the second entry format.
Additional • Include a relevant thesis that addresses the assignment and support the thesis with relevant information from the primary and secondary sources.
• Incorporate an analysis of at least four separate written primary documents from the Sipress collection into your argument.
• Be sure to take into account the key analytical points about the sources: the immediate historical context and date for the source, intended audience, purpose (i.e., why it was created), point of view, and significance.
• In order to capture the reader’s attention, open the paper with a brief story, a discussion of a major event or historical figure. You should then introduce your thesis and explain how you will support it (i.e., outline your argument).
• When writing formal essays, always use a formal writing style. Please avoid the conventions of spoken English.
• Do not use block quotes in short papers.
