I think that your outline is set up very organized and it’s well put together, it doesn’t look like you missed anything. I really like the restated thesis in the conclusion, I feel like it gives more than the thesis in the intro.
ReplyDeleteYour thesis is interesting, I like it a lot! :) I feel like, with an assignment like this, it's easy to fall into the "just make the argument that this story isn't true even though we all already know that" trap, and I think that you've done a really good job averting that.
