Write a draft thesis sentence for your essay. (In other words, how these 2 artists- and their MUSIC- compare to each other.)

Please use the essay I’ve attached below for the following:
1) Write a draft thesis sentence for your essay.
(In other words, how these 2 artists- and their MUSIC- compare to each other.)
2) List the six most persuasive FACTS of evidence supporting your argument. (This does not mean a listing of your sources.)
… but before you can form a thesis, you’ll need to research, listen, and then mull over what you discover. You want to make sure that your thesis is backed up
by evidence.
Here is what you need to know about research, listening, and thesis requirements for the final project.
LISTENING
When you are studying musical history, listening to music is actually a form of research! For this assignment you are required to listen to music by each musician, to include descriptions of their music in the essay, and to use the music you hear as evidence for your argument.
Keep a notebook to jot down impressions of music you listen to for the project. You can easily do it 5 or 10 minutes at a time. Your written notes will be useful in analyzing your musicians’ work.
In your final project essay you are required to include one paragraph describing a song by one of the musicians, and another paragraph about a song by the other musician. Figure out which song description to use to support your thesis, or to set the stage for your essay, and begin to sketch that out.
Also you are required to refer to a minimum of two additional specific songs or instrumental works in the essay. If you do keep a listening notebook you’ll want to use it for this.
III. OTHER SOURCES AND RESEARCH
You can get your bearings by reading Wikipedia articles and the like. Then consult books, scholarly articles, and primary sources.
Primary sources are evidence from the time of the musician you are studying. A primary source could be a newspaper or magazine article from the musicians’ time, a letter from the musician or their friends, advertisements from the musician’s era, photographs, recorded interviews, and so on. The CSUS librarians can help you locate primary sources if you have any trouble.
For this essay, you are required to quote from (or describe evidence provided by, in the case of visual media) a minimum of two primary sources.
Also include a bibliography.
FORMING A THESIS
In the essay, I’d like you to present and argue for a thesis about how the musicians relate to one another. I ask this because it will help you better understand the musicians, their work, and their places in American musical history. As you think about the relationship between the artists, ask yourself about subjects such as the following: the musicians’ work, lives, styles, influence, and relationship to a geographical era. Also consider the themes we have observed in our study of American music all semester:
Music is often essential to a person’s identity as an individual or as a member of one or more societal groups. The group may be defined in any of a wide variety of ways: by common interest, ethnicity, class, place of birth, occupation, political orientation, religion, regional area, family tradition, nationality, insider or outsider status, participation in popular culture, and so on. Cultural interactions influence the history of musical style. Broadly speaking, the music of groups outside the mainstream is often adopted and adapted by mainstream culture; the mainstream version of “outsiders’ music” often lacks some of the vitality and distinctiveness of the original. The marketplace and the motivation to make money influence the history of musical style; frequently these forces lead to simplification. Technological developments both influence and are driven by musical developments. Music can be analyzed by isolating certain of its characteristics, including rhythm, melody, harmony, texture, dynamics, instrumentation, lyrics, purpose, and form. Forms vary widely but are always dependent on the use of repetition, variation, and contrast. Musical characteristics reflect the purposes of the music. This is particularly obvious in music with political or religious intent.
Here are just a few examples of relationships you might discover and argue for about musicians X and Y. (This list is not intended to limit your options, just to get you thinking.)
Superficially, X and Y seem entirely different; looking more deeply, we see that their commonalities are more significant than their differences.
Even though X and Y both wrote love songs with similar texts, the music backing the lyrics results in uplifting songs from X and depressing songs from Y.
Even though X and Y were born within a year of one another, the circumstances of their lives caused radical differences in the kinds of music they made.
X and Y, born within a year of one another, invested their talents in different styles of music, but their artistic development took parallel paths.
You might ask yourself: What position does each musician occupy in the hi

Alleged Voter Suppression in a Democracy

SUBJECT: Texas Governement
The landmark ruling in the court case Shelby County v. Holder (2013; check out video in the module for more info about the case) has empowered and emboldened several states to implement and execute laws and practices that have the net effect of disenfranchising some groups of voters.
In Texas, for example, there were reports from Super Tuesday (March 3, 2020) that primary election voting was particularly onerous in majority-minority areas. This was reported in media outlets in counties that include Houston, DFW, San Antonio, and Austin. Texas joins several other states in which laws and official practices make voting more difficult and less accessible for certain groups.
Watch the video about voter purging in North Carolina (Texas has used similar practices to purge voter rolls) and also read the Texas Tribune article about voter disenfranchisement.
VIDEO: https://youtu.be/3AMz4iRFZCk
ARTICLE: https://www.texastribune.org/2020/11/06/texas-voting-access-turnout/

Please analyze and respond to all of these questions in your discussion post:
Some might argue that these are concerted efforts to disenfranchise black, brown, low income and young voters. Others might say these circumstances are simply unfortunate coincidences in the overall effort to ensure the integrity of elections. What is your opinion? Whichever side you choose to argue, relate your opinion back to concepts we have studied in the course.

How might the traditionalist, individualistic political culture of Texas factor in here?

Thinking about federalism, the role of administering elections is a power/responsibility reserved to the states. Should the federal government interfere? Why or why not?

What might be the short-term or long-term effects of practices like this on America’s democracy?

PICO(T) Questions and an Evidence-Based Approach

Create a 3-5-page submission in which you develop a PICO(T) question for a specific care issue and evaluate the evidence you locate, which could help to answer the question.
PICO(T) is an acronym that helps researchers and practitioners define aspects of a potential study or investigation.
It stands for:
P – Patient/population/problem.
I – Intervention.
C – Comparison (of potential interventions, typically).
O – Outcome(s).
T – Time frame (if time frame is relevant).
The end goal of applying PICO(T) is to develop a question that can help guide the search for evidence (Boswell Cannon, 2015). From this perspective, a PICO(T) question can be a valuable starting point for nurses who are starting to apply an evidence-based model or EBPs. By taking the time to precisely define the areas in which the nurse will be looking for evidence, searches become more efficient and effective. Essentially, by precisely defining the types of evidence within specific areas, the nurse will be more likely to discover relevant and useful evidence during their search.
You are encouraged to complete the Vila Health PCI(T) Process activity before you develop the plan proposal. This activity offers an opportunity to practice working through creating a PICO(T) question within the context of an issue at a Vila Health facility. These skills will be necessary to complete Assessment 3 successfully. This is for your own practice and self-assessment and demonstrates your engagement in the course.
Demonstration of Proficiency
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the course competencies through the following assessment scoring guide criteria:
Competency 1: Interpret findings from scholarly quantitative, qualitative, and outcomes research articles and studies.
Explain the findings from articles or other sources of evidence.
Competency 2: Analyze the relevance and potential effectiveness of evidence when making a decision.
Identify sources of evidence that could be potentially effective in answering a PICO(T) question.
Explain the relevance of the findings from chosen sources of evidence to making decision related to a PICO(T) question.
Competency 3: Apply an evidence-based practice model to address a practice issue.
Define a practice issue to be explored via a PICO(T) approach.
Competency 5: Apply professional, scholarly communication strategies to lead practice changes based on evidence.
Communicate using writing that is clear, logical, and professional with correct grammar and spelling using current APA style.

Professional Context
As a baccalaureate-prepared nurse, you will be responsible for locating and identifying credible and scholarly resources to incorporate the best available evidence for the purposes of enhancing clinical reasoning and judgement skills. When reliable and relevant evidence-based findings are utilized, patients, health care systems, and nursing practice outcomes are positively impacted.
PICO(T) is a framework that can help you structure your definition of the issue, potential approach that you are going to use, and your predictions related to the issue. Word choice is important in the PICO(T) process because different word choices for similar concepts will lead you toward different existing evidence and research studies that would help inform the development of your initial question.
Scenario
For this assessment, please use an issue of interest from your current or past nursing practice.
If you do not have an issue of interest from your personal nursing practice, then review the optional Case Studies presented in the resources and select one of those as the basis for your assessment.
For this assessment, select an issue of interest an apply the PICO(T) process to define the question and research it.
Your initial goal is to define the population, intervention, comparison, and outcome. In some cases, a time frame is relevant and you should include that as well, when writing a question you can research related to your issue of interest. After you define your question, research it, and organize your initial findings, select the two sources of evidence that seem the most relevant to your question and analyze them in more depth. Specifically, interpret each source’s specific findings and best practices related to your issues, as well explain how the evidence would help you plan and make decisions related to your question.
If you need some structure to organize your initial thoughts and research, the PICOT Question and Research Template document (accessible from the “Create PICO(T) Questions” page in the Capella library’s Evidence Based Practice guide) might be helpful.
In your submission, make sure you address the following grading criteria:
Define a practice issue to be explored via a PICO(T) approach.
Identify sources of evidence that could be potentially effective in answering a PICO(T) question.
Explain the findings from articles or other sources of evidence.
Explain the relevance of the findings from chosen sources of evidence to making decision related to a PICO(T) question.
Communicate using writing that is clear, logical, and professional with correct grammar and spelling using the current APA style.
Example Assessment: You may use the following to give you an idea of what a Proficient or higher rating on the scoring guide would look like:
Assessment 3 Example [PDF].
Additional Requirements
Your assessment should meet the following requirements:
Length of submission: Create a 3–5-page submission focused on defining a research question and interpreting evidence relevant to answering it.
Number of references: Cite a minimum of four sources of scholarly or professional evidence that support your findings and considerations. Resources should be no more than 5 years old.
APA formatting: Format references and citations according to the current APA style.
