You must provide a title page and a separate Bibliography page (list of sources).
You must use at least 7 “scholarly” sources for your essay. Do NOT use any type of “encyclopedias” as a source! You also must not use websites OTHER than those that end in .edu. You should use academic sources such as journal articles, monographs (books), journals, diaries, journal articles, newspapers, etc.
You must use the Chicago (commonly called Turabian) style and format. Make sure that you use “Endnotes” and “Bibliography” style. Do NOT use “footnotes.” If you are not familiar with Turabian, the following site may be very helpful: https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/turabian/turabian-notes-and-bibliography-citation-quick-guide.htmlLinks to an external site.
Essays must be submitted via the “assignment link” by midnight on the date indicated. The link is located in Module 8.

Consider George Bancroft’s writings on the American Revolution in light of Hebert Butterfield’s critique of “Whig history.” To what extent does Bancroft write in the Whig idiom? Comment on the strengths and weaknesses of this style of history as a means of shedding light on the past. It may be useful to draw selectively on Becker as well.
Guidelines. I will grade the paper on both content (the key ideas you present) and the quality of the writing itself. On the writing, I will be looking for clarity, concision, and overall control. I offer, below, some more detailed suggestions regarding your approach to the materials and to matters of writing conventions and formatting. The best reference guide to writing style is The Chicago Manual of Style. Chicago offers an online version that may be of help https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/home.htmlLinks to an external site. (common sorts of questions are often addressed in the “Q&A section,” but you will see other helpful material elsewhere on the website).
A) Central elements of the strongest answers (these are mostly generic suggestions, not specifically tailored to this particular essay):
Make an argument. Your first paragraph should conclude with a thesis statement, and successive paragraphs should elaborate that thesis.
Define your terms. What are the key elements of heroic or Whig history, for example?
Make sure to consider place and time in your answers. Does it matter that one is considering Massachusetts or Virginia or some other place in the early republic? Does it matter that a document is written in 1789, 1800, or 1820?
Whenever possible, support your argument with references to primary sources. This does not mean that you need to pepper your text with quotes. But where there is primary material that is relevant, demonstrate that the position you take can be supported in documents of the period. When you introduce primary material, make sure to do a few things: note who is writing and when they are writing, “translate” what they are saying (don’t simply block quote without quickly summarizing what you take to the meaning of their text), and comment on how the material illuminates the issue at hand.
Similarly, whenever possible, support your argument by drawing on the secondary works we have read this term. You are encouraged to read these works critically: if you have persuasive evidence or reasoning to the contrary, it is perfectly acceptable to challenge historical interpretations.
Part of your argument should address what you imagine to be the strongest positions of someone who might take an opposing view.
Finally, find a balance here between breadth and depth. You can’t cover everything. Find what you think is essential and interesting – particular events, statements, persons — and do a thorough job in supporting your case.

of Soviet Communism
MARK R. BEISSINGER) and other sources you find that support your thesis. The lecture outlines also contain relevant readings, especially week 9 lecture 2’s outline. If you have any questions, please ask me. Lastly, please inform me when you have your thesis statement. Thank you very much!

Hi i just noticed that in the directions it says to avoid using poems by Langston Hughes. Can you adjust the presentation from Langston Hughes poem and just put something else for the Harlem Renaissance

To help guide your viewing, here is a synopsis of the movie “Drawn Together: Comics, Diversity, and Stereotypes.”
With a lively backdrop of superheroes, comic books, and animated comics, Drawn Together: Comics, Diversity, and Stereotypes brings together three talented artists—a Sikh, a woman, and an African American—who are challenging the racist stereotyping currently endemic in America through their work.
The documentary provides a rare opportunity to explore the subjects of race, gender, and religion stereotyping through the universally popular medium of comic books and cartoons. Drawn Together boldly encourages viewers to unlearn stereotyping, look beyond the obvious, and confront media prejudices—all through an uncommon and inherently engaging everyday source.
Expert commentary is provided by Professor Arvind Singhal, a world-renowned expert in entertainment education; Andrew Farago, the curator of San Francisco’s Cartoon Art Museum; and Adam Elrashidi, a cartoonist and producer at Al Jazeera. They share their thoughts on how to solve the problem of racist stereotyping by changing the stories being told and discuss how the three profiled artists have brought about a groundswell movement to combat the way we traditionally look at racist stereotypes.
One was about what makes someone or something part of popular culture. The other was about creative people whose works support diversity rather than stereotypes.
For your main posting, please look back at American history from 1800 to recent times. Find a person, event, artifact, or movement, school, group, or institution that fits into our two themes this week, namely that it is a part of popular culture and that it supports diversity rather than stereotypes.
Your main posting should have three paragraphs. First, tell us what you chose and why it is part of popular culture. Second, describe how your choice supports diversity rather than stereotypes. Third, tell us why you chose it. Why did this attract your attention and also make it worthy of consideration in a course on the history of popular American culture?
Check the discussion rubric if you aren’t sure what a good discussion posting looks like. This rubric is in Part II of our syllabus. Remember to have all the required parts for this posting.
Post this new thread with your three paragraphs in our Week 9 Discussions board on or before Friday night at 11:59 pm Central time.

The five sources MUST include three peer reviewed sources. The paper also must contain a little about the doping and such in the whole history of the Olympics. Its a Kinesiology/History course. Thank you!
