The topic of this white paper is the mental health issues (depression and anxiety) that college students have to face. ??All you have to do is extend the paper, that I have provided, by one page.

Choose a topic from Beloved that interests you. (Examples: violence during slavery, historical treatment of enslaved mothers, Morrison’s use of imagery, etc.) Find at least five (5) scholarly sources related to your research topic. You must include at least one book (print or electronic) and one peer-reviewed scholarly article. For EACH source, explain why you think it will help you better understand your research topic. Each explanation should be at least two (2) sentences long. Compile ALL of your sources in one comprehensive annotated bibliography. An annotated bibliography is simply a bibliography that has annotations (short descriptions) for each source. The difference between a bibliography and a Works Cited page is that a bibliography is a comprehensive list of all sources that you read as part of your research process. A Works Cited page only includes the sources that you cite in your essay. The formatting for the two is identical.

Insider’s point of view essay (or personal experience essay):  In “On Dumpster Diving,” Lars Eighner is able to describe the life of the scavenger from an insider’s point of view, using his insights to make a critique (analysis and criticism) of consumer society. Think of some subject that you can bring the insider’s point of view to, and write an essay. Your essay will probably be more like the student essays we have read, so pay attention to Colin Clark’s “Becoming a Reader,” Emma Seward’s “When Speech Fails You,” or any of the other student essays we have discussed.   The core of a personal essay is inward reflection about yourself. The idea is to think of something you have experienced and tell the audience what happened and why it is meaningful to you.   Spend at least 15 minutes (or more) on each of the following steps!   Use any or all of the incremental writing techniques we have used in the last few weeks; for example, freewrite or do a clustering exercise on a subject you could develop for an insider’s point of view essay. (Other techniques include listing, question asking, exploring associations, paragraphing on key ideas you have discovered in your freewriting).     2. Using a story or narrative: to make your essay concrete and vivid, think of an anecdote or an incident that happened to you at work (or at the place where you think of yourself as an insider) that you can relate to the reader, particularly if it reveals something significant about yourself, your job, your co-workers, the customers, etc.   Now analyze what you think your narrative (the anecdote you have just written) represents. Can you detect a theme that you can explore more fully?   If other stories from your experience occur to you, develop them in the same way.   Try to answer the question, “What have I learned from my experience?” This could lead you to a strong thesis which will help keep your essay focused.

In your opinion, what might be the reasons for these differences? Has Wallace’s character been altered in the film in order to make him more of a hero to modern American audiences?
