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 10/20 - STOP GENOCIDE & it’s not in Gaza/Ecosystem Attack/StandWithUkraine/climate/Human Rights/ProtectSacred Sites

Love the byline. This is one of many things that stand out in this op-ed: “The latest collision between [Felon47’s] misrepresentation and reality came in a unanimous 7th Circuit per curium opinion upholding the U.S. District Court’s opinion finding that there was no legal basis for National Guard deployment in Chicago.” Yup, that convicted felon is losing again: " Put differently: Government lies to the country will not fly in court.” Too bad they don’t call the felon out on ALL his lies as well as those of his uh regime. This is a good read that we need to see whenever this corrupt regime attacks its citizens. Too bad the SCOTUS is just as corrupt as this regime. Strong opening sentence in the conclusion.  - The 7th Circuit rejects lies about Chicago The possibilities of what you can do over these next 15 days is given right underneath a picture from this weekend. Really don’t care if that incompetent, unhinged, misogynistic thang loses his temper. He isn’t worth squat IMO. Anywa...

ALL PIPELINES 10/13 - STOP GENOCIDE & it’s not in Gaza/Ecosystem Attack/StandWithUkraine/climate/Human Rights/ProtectSacred Sites

Of course the village idiot is blaming the Dems for this shutdown when in fact it’s him and his chicken party is what is responsible, always has been. IMO he’s trying to divert attention from this with what is happening in the Middle East. If this corrupt regime is not placing back pay now on the GOP in Congress, he’s looking to switch responsibility to them. Guess what, fool. It doesn’t work that way. We KNOW who’s responsible who is really incapable of governing. Remember this always. Post it somewhere so you remember who is responsible for this stuff we’re all going through with the shutdown: “They’ve worked so hard to have us forget about the Epstein files and what they contain [I haven’t so I doubt it’s working elsewhere]. Let’s make sure they don’t do that.” Btw, WE are the focus of what the Dems want to pass. Many of us, especially those in Jersey are hoping the arguments heard today will disqualify U.S. Attorney Alina Habba. This is a good read. - The Week Ahead  Interestin...

ALL PIPELINES 10/21, 23 - STOP GENOCIDE & it’s not in Gaza/Ecosystem Attack/StandWithUkraine/climate/Human Rights/ProtectSacred Sites

This stands out: " we are living in the 'against stupidity we have no defense' era.” What would happen if we had PMQs. I miss those like Thatcher. The examples given remind us of what democracy looks like. IMO this is factual: " Most of our politicians, regardless of party, couldn’t handle the intellectual preparation that PMQs requires.” I most definitely agree with this, and I doubt I’m the only one who believes this: " Imagine Convicted Felon Trump having to weekly defend the appropriateness … of EVERYTHING HE IS DOING. He would sink like the Titanic.” Actually, IMO he already IS sinking, has been for quite some time as he falls apart.  Interesting read & videos from Katie Phang. -  A Call to ORDER! You know who was in office in 2017. What good did he do for the country then? Btw, that’s a rhetorical question. And I’m pretty sure you’lll agree that he will have issues with this program. After all he thinks the climate crisis is a hoax. A lot of these doula...
