Learning Goal: I’m working on a history writing question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.
Write an analysis of 3-5 pages (double spaced, Times New Roman 12 point font, 1 inch margins). Any paper that is not a minimum of a full 3 pages will automatically receive a maximum grade of a “D”. Your analysis should be written in essay format with an introduction, several body paragraphs, and a conclusion. You should have a separate title page that includes the title of your essay, your name, date, and course. The title page does not count as one of the required pages of your essay.
Within your essay you must have a thesis statement in the introductory paragraph and answer all parts of the question you choose from the selection below. See the module titled “Course Materials” for tips on writing a good history thesis. Remember this is not a book report or a summary. This is an analytical essay in which you should demonstrate that you can form an argument, and support that argument with evidence/facts from the book and/or from other required course materials. There will be a 10 point deduction for any essay that does not have a thesis statement.
Your essay will be graded based on the following:

3. What was going on in U.S. History in the late-1800s, and early-1900s, that helps us to better understand the hostility that existed between white Americans and ethnic Mexicans living in South Texas? Discuss how these factors were used to justify Mexican American lynching. What were the alternative reasons behind the lynching of Mexican Americans?
