Research Paper Assignment: Myrlie Evers-Williams
Length: 6 to 8 pages.
Each paper must discuss the ideology of the leader chosen, their impact upon America or their community, as a whole, and the African American struggle for social and political equality in particular. One must consider certain questions: Was the individual successful in his or her overall goals and objectives? If successful in their areas of struggle/leadership, in what ways were they successful? If they were not successful, why did they fail? If you believe it is not as cut and dry as this, explain why. Also, what is the individual's overall legacy and how did they alter American history? I do not want you to take a book report approach; you should provide a critical analysis of the individual's leadership style and ideology along with a clear and supported thesis. The sources used, primary and secondary, will be extremely important regarding the strength of your research analyses.
