Marthin Luther King Jr. letter in Birningham jail

King writes this letter while he was jailed for marching without a permit. He is in jail over the Easter holiday. Some ministers believed he should have picked a better ( more convenient) time. Others think protesting is a bad idea and he should engage in discussions rather than marches.
In this letter, King points out the responsibility ( as he sees it) of Christians to the larger society. King is sorely disappointed in the lack of support he has received from white churches in the South during the civil rights movement and he calls other ministers to repentance for what he ( King) sees as anti-Christian behavior.
Choose the significant statements King makes in this letter to highlight the importance of the civil rights movement and to prove why he believes his actions in Birmingham are justified.

Capstone Research Paper

You are tasked with offering science-based principles to guide decision-making in the criminal justice system to forge a better path forward.
To begin, locate a specific problem that is related to one of the chapters in Jacinta Gau’s Book ‘Criminal Justice Policy: Origins and Consequences’ that you wish to explore in-depth.
Next, gather research findings from science journals, books, and reputable research institutes and use what you learn to understand the problem, its causes, and alternative policy solutions.
Lastly, use the research and scientific evidence to advise policymakers on criminal justice policy decisions in the area that you have decided to investigate.

Policy reports directly reflect the different roles that the policy analyst commonly plays, i.e., from researcher to advocate. The type of report that you are writing is one from the more action-oriented, advocacy end of the continuum (but that is nevertheless based purely on evidence and not your opinion). Although there is much variation even at this end of the scale, the most common elements of the policy report are as follows (**Your Capstone Research Paper must include all seven headings**):

Title Page
Executive Summary
Context and the Importance of the Problem
Pre-Exiting Policies, Policy Alternatives, and Research
Conclusion
Policy Recommendations
References

Requirements and Overview of the Research Paper
Your capstone research paper will be written as a policy report.
– It must be between 3,000 words and 3,500 words minimum (not including the title page or references).
-Your research paper/policy report needs to be double-spaced with 1.0-inch margins and using a 12-point Times New Roman font.
-Your policy report must be based entirely on published research (and not your opinion or non-scholarly opinions).

For this project, you will examine policies through a critical, social-scientific, empirical lens, and producing an action-oriented policy report targeting policymakers and agency executives (e.g., chiefs of police). It will serve the purpose of informing policymakers and agency executives on what they can do to improve on what scholars and many people in communities of color call the ‘criminal injustice system.’ Thus, your policy report will include several in-text cites referencing journal articles, books, book chapters, and reports from reputable agencies such as the Vera Institute, the Prison Policy Initiative, the Sentencing Project, and government agencies, such as the Department of Justice.

To illustrate how you might proceed: Existing drug policy still adheres to the tenets of the “war on drugs” and, as such, is more oriented toward enforcement than toward prevention and treatment. Enforcement-based strategies are, by themselves, limited in their overall effectiveness. Drug courts have become significant players in the fight against drugs, but enforcement remains the focal point of policy efforts. Racial disparities in prison populations have been attributed to the war on drugs and accompanying determinant sentencing structures. Yet, policymakers have been reluctant to alter sentencing schemes or legislation that flatly prohibits the sale, possession, and use of drugs. If this were your focus (or topic of investigation), you would review the evidence about the effectiveness of enforcement-based and treatment-based efforts, as well as the relative cost-effectiveness of each, and recommend to a policymaking audience what strategies, practices, and programs should be adopted. As a final note, you need to view “effectiveness” in broad terms that include issues of justice, fairness, and what are known as “collateral consequences,” and not just in terms of reducing or preventing crime.

Investigating writing

ssignment: For this essay, you will collect primary data in order to research an aspect or kind of writing and how it relates to a specific community or group of people or type of person. You’ll choose a topic and collect data (e.g., interviews, observations, surveys, polls, etc.), analyze that data to look for patterns or simple frequency counts, make an argument based on your findings, and explain what your research suggests about a specific kind of written communication as well as a specific group/community of writers. You may use additional interviews with your previous interviewee or some other form of primary research (e.g., surveys, polls, textual analysis, etc.), as well as at least four secondary sources (that’s at least five sources total), in order to develop a complete, authentic research paper. This research is empirical because you must include your own primary research—research that you conduct to produce your own data. That means that you’ll be collecting data to generate knowledge based on your own research rather than compiling information based on others’ research to write a report. We’ll discuss how to submit your topic to the Institutional Review Board (IRB) to be sure that your project is following all University research guidelines.
Once you have collected and analyzed your primary and secondary sources, you will compose a 6-8 page document (at least 2500 words of content, excluding cover page, graphs, charts, References, appendices, etc.) that answers a specific research question related to writing. Your paper will be organized using IMRAD (more on that in the Unit) and should be properly formatted according to APA guidelines, including in-text citations and a References page, respectively.
Your essay should:
❑ Define a problem or ask a specific question about a kind of writing among a group of people.
❑ Include a clear thesis or point. (After conducting your research, what did you find?)
❑ Collect appropriate primary data (i.e., your own information that doesn’t exist yet).
❑ Find appropriate secondary sources.
❑ Evaluate primary and secondary information.
❑ Use appropriate rhetorical, linguistic, cultural, genre, disciplinary, and academic conventions.
❑ Include an introduction, body, and conclusion to structure the essay. (Follow the IMRAD format)
❑ Cite at least four secondary sources (academic essays, scholarly sources, etc.) reinforcing or complicating your thesis.
❑ Include at least one type of primary source that is your own research on which your thesis is based.
❑ Be comprised of at least 6-8 pages (2500 words of content), not counting your Cover Page, References page, and any transcripts, survey questions, or other documents you used to collect your primary data.
❑ Demonstrate your ability to use grammar, punctuation, and formatting suitable for college.
Format:
❑ Include a header (i.e., page number in the upper right corner of every page in the correct font type/size).
❑ Include a cover page and references page (according to APA formatting & citation guidelines)
❑ Follow the IMRAD format
❑ Use a standard font like Times New Roman in 12pt size.
❑ Double-space your essay and set line spacing at 0pt.
❑ Cite your sources in the text and on the References page.
Note:
❑ Make sure the document is accessible, whether typed in Google Docs, Microsoft Word, or uploaded as a PDF – all of which is fine.
– Avoid using other word-processing systems like Apple Pages or notepad-like apps, Canvas is typically not compatible with these.
