You are tasked with writing an analytical response to an assigned reading of your choosing from the list provided below.  Your response paper should be two pages long (double spaced, 1 inch margins, 10-12pt font, sensible formatting, etc), engaging with both the author's ideas and contributing your own perspectives as well.  When writing your response, you may find the following prompts helpful: What is the author’s main argument? Do you agree or disagree with their thesis, and why? How does the author support their thesis? What kind of evidence do they use? What was valuable about the article? What was problematic? How does the author’s interpretation differ from the textbook’s presentation of the work/s in question? Does the author emphasize what is new or different about their thesis?
