 * On-Demand Comparative Mini-Essay: We spent about 45 mins on this. If you were gone, please do the same and then share it with me in your google drive folder for this class. **


 * Use the information from both “The Danger of a Single Story” and “Dark They Were and Golden-Eyed” to support/defend an argument about the effect of a single story/one sided understanding of an individual or a group. Use examples/quotes from both stories to justify your ideas. **

 * **Be double-spaced, in 12pt font, and in Times New Roman **
 * **Concludes with a restatement of your thesis statement **
