Focus:
This essay should have a clear thesis/statement of your argument somewhere in your first paragraph (your introduction). Your main idea is choosing a social justice issue that connects with both the graphic novel and the film Black Panther. You must address your essay from an analytical perspective. Do not just cover the details of what occurs in the texts youre using. I do not want a summary of events in the sources that will help you develop your paragraphs. You may use personal experience to help support your argument. You must also provide your reader with enough context/background so that they can follow your position. Summarizing your sources may help however, you should not mistake summary for analysis. If you only have summaries of the sources you are using in your essay, points will be deducted. Have a plan to help construct your essay. Brainstorm and map out how youre going to develop the ideas in your essay. When in doubt ask questions. Dont wait until its too late to try to figure out what is happening. Contact the CAWS center if you need extra help.
