Annotated Bibliography / Format for Researched Argument

Please don't forget that you should email me your annotated bibliography by 7:30 a.m., 3/29.  It should be submitted to turnitin.com as well by that time.  I will email you all a reminder over spring break.  Below are some more links that may help you create your annotated bibliography:
Note how the annotation itself is single spaced while the source entry is double spaced.  Websites are also available on line that will create these for you.  If you choose to use one of them, make sure the necessary info. is included as fer this particular assignment.  Be careful about format as well.  Sometimes when copying and pasting the indentations that take place after the first line of an entry won't transfer. DO NOT highlight any part of your annotation.  Also, make sure the web addresses ARE NOT hot links.

You might want to consult Purdue Owl regarding MLA format for your researched argument once you start on this part of this project.  I am going to require that you use footnotes when writing this because you are asked to be able to read footnotes on the AP English Language Exam.  Another useful site regarding when to quote and/or how much to quote can be found on this college website page about quotations/annotations.

Because this is such in involved assignment, I strongly suggest that you create a detailed outline for this paper so that you can not only organize your thoughts but so that you can make sure you include everything you need.  I can give you suggestions for a plan for writing if you so desire.  Please let me know ahead of time because these are not handouts I plan to copy for the class.  You should know this already, but in case you want some added support, let me know.

ALL PIPELINES 7/01 - STOP GENOCIDE & it’s not in Gaza/Ecosystem Attack/StandWithUkraine/climate/Human Rights/ProtectSacred

The big UGLY bill passed the Senate today.  This statement speaks volumes: " By threatening Tillis, Trump has only drawn more attention to Tillis’s truth-telling about his swindle of MAGA voters.” The guest for this Sargent podcast is a Republic is Timothy Noah. The byline does the same. The convicted felon has banned from the GOP. How does anyone really do that? The felon as usual shows what a loser he is as well as how much he LIES.  Interesting all who are afraid of alienating the orange menace. The felon has animal instincts. He’s not especially smart. The bill will pass.  Most definitely worth a listen. - Trump’s Fury at Thom Tillis Backfires, Wrecking His Vile Medicaid Scam I’d like to see this happen to this convicted felon occupying the White House as well as every member of his family as well as all members of his cabinet. The fact that this might now be our reality should raise red flags. Yes, it’s happening. Looks like this corrupt administration is also using ...

ALL PIPELINES 11/26-27 - STOP GENOCIDE & it’s not in Gaza/Ecosystem Attack/StandWithUkraine/climate/Human Rights/ProtectSacredSites/Israel-Hamas

This is a good read. Maybe some of us fall in the atheist Jew category, but it doesn’t make us less Jewish. The catastrophic events of 10/7 live on in all of us, drawing us together as antisemitism continues to rise. I didn’t have any grandparents to warn me. They had all passed before my parents married. Their parents escaped the pogroms in what was called Russia, which is now Ukraine, the Kviv area. Not all of my relatives left. Some I know didn’t survive the Holocaust. This is not something before now that I’ve really been open about much. - This is what our grandparents warned us about. This is what happens when you stand on the wrong side of history.  Maybe MSNBC should have thought about NOT giving the convicted felon so much coverage. Just maybe Joy should have through twice before siding with Ham@s. Most of us do not intend to go back. Y'all made bad decisions, and now you'll just have to deal with it. - JUST IN: MSNBC loses almost HALF Its Viewers in Stunning Post-Elec...

ALL PIPELINES 7/09 - STOP GENOCIDE & it’s not in Gaza/Ecosystem Attack/StandWithUkraine/climate/Human Rights/ProtectSacred

This is no surprise, what is implied by the title of this from Hopium. Worth a read. - Trump Is Making America Poorer, Weaker, Less Safe And Less Free And the American People Are Unhappy About It   This is what we’ll continue to see in the White House. Interesting anti-Trump statue now at the National Mall. I’m hoping someone will be posting pictures of this for all of us to see. What’s included on the plaque is fitting for sure. That Booker/Padilla bill must pass with enough votes to override any veto likely to come from the White House. That in itself will be tough. Keep asking about Epstein. - A New White House Meltdown and More Bad News For Trump Breaking news opens this interview: Basically Bondi has lied about the Epstein. Give that byline time to sink in. What the hell is up with Paramount? This gives me good reason NOT to use this streaming service. Geez, a side deal. All that’s happening with the mainstream news gives the rest of us good reason to not support any deals mad...
