Essay Instructions: After reading the book Coming of Age In Mississippi, by Anne Moody, write a 5 page essay on the following questions:

Part I: How and what did Anne Moody learn about the social significance of race? In other words, when, and how, did she "come of age?" What were the influences in her life that prompted her to become politically active? Speculate why she responded differently from those around her (her peers, her mother, other adults).

Part II: Choose two passages from the book (in whatever length) that struck you in some way - surprised, saddened, appalled, moved, or intrigued you, and write a response to each one a couple of paragraphs or so in length. Do not copy the passages in your paper, just cite the appropriate page(s) from Moody. NOTE: one passage must come from part four, and one passage from one of the other three parts.

Part III: Having read Anne Moody's book would you have become involved in the civil rights movement? (keep this brief, a paragraph). Of course, this section is subjective and will depend on your race, ethnicity, gender, class, and place of residence. I just want you to place yourself back in this time period and really think about what your reaction to the movement may have been. (I am a white, middle-class male. I have always lived in a good part of town)

the only source to be used is the book Coming of Age In Mississippi, by Anne Moody.

Essay Instructions: Use the following two books equally:

Quiet Odyssey: A Pioneer Korean Woman in America by Mary Paik Lee (Seattle: University of Washington Press, 1990)

Coming of Age in Mississippi by Anne Moody (New York: Dell Publishing, 1968)

Compare the hardships that Mary and Anne had to overcome. How were their struggles similar and different.

In answering the above question, make sure to formulate a thesis and state it within the first paragraph. Then in the body of the essay, support your argument by citing and analyzing evidence and quotations from the two books. In other words, use evidence from these two books to convince that your points are valid.

And also be sure to cite page numbers throughout the essay.

Essay Instructions: My assignment for the class African-Americans in the 20th century requires an essay that compares and contrasts two books. One book is "Coming of Age In Mississippi" by Anne Moody ISBN: 0-440-31488-7 and the other book is "The Autobiography of Malcolm X as told by Alex Haley ISBN:0-345-37975-6. It''s an interpretation of both books and needs to include an opinion and why.

This comparison and contrast paper does not require an cited sources or bibliography.

Comparison would include both growing up poor, etc.

Contrast would include one growing up in rural south and the other growing up in urban north, etc.

I have used your service before, so I know you will do an excellent job on this essay.

Please feel free to contact me if you need to.

Thank you.
