You will compose an essay that demonstrates your ability to apply literary terms, concepts, devices and characteristics in critiquing a story, body of poems, essay, or autobiography/narrative by an African-American writer.
Topic
The poems and writings of realism and blackness by poets Claude McKay, Langston Hughes, and Nikki Giovanni.
Purpose:
The primary purpose of this assignment is to present a persuasive argument on the writing(s) you chose to critique.

Therefore, your essay should present a clear thesis, i.e., a debatable claim about your topic supported by strong evidence.
Audience:
An intelligent person who does not like to read and/or is unfamiliar with the author and work(s) you have chosen to critique. This person may be a friend, family member, or someone you want to impress with YOUR intelligence.
Format:
Use MLA-style paper format
Structural Guidelines:
We will set aside time, as indicated in the course calendar, to discuss how you may organize and structure your essay using guidelines for writing a critical response. We will also review MLA documentation (in-text citations, integrating sources and the Works Cited page).
References:
Your essay should include at least three (3) substantial, meaningful references to text you are writing about in Norton.
Use MLA in-text parenthetical documentation whenever you quote or paraphrase from the text, and include a Works Cited page to document your references.
