Write an opinion paper about an issue within the theme of police brutality on people of color. Opinion papers are intended to help you prepare to analyze an issue in more depth in your research paper. These are not mere summaries of an issue, but should demonstrate active engagement with it: you need to take a stand.
5-point paper (A): This paper develops ONE central insight, your argument or opinion. The thesis is clearly stated and there is a coherent theme to the paper. A brief introduction offers an overview of your topic/issue and makes it clear what your focus is going to be. The body of the paper expands on this theme in various ways (relevant examples or evidence). The analysis part is sufficient and convincing. The conclusion shows the growth of your initial opinion into a demonstration of the validity of your points. There are no significant mechanical errors. The essay shows awareness of writing style (avoiding unnecessary repetition, wordiness, excessive use of “to be” verbs, etc.). The essay follows the formal parameters established (number of pages, font size, spacing, MLA style, etc.).
