Learning Goal: I’m working on a history writing question and need guidance to help me learn.

Hi so you did the political analysis assignment for this which I uploaded below. I also need an abstract and a rough draft. I need the abstract in the next couple of hours so do that first it shouldn’t take you long. and then the rough draft you can take as long as you need.

Political Analysis – Abstract/Summary

Length: 200-250 words

Style: APA (1-inch margins, 12 font, Times New Roman, double-spaced, no need for a cover page)

The Assignment: Now that you have completed your annotated bibliographies and learned more about the issues you are exploring for your Political Analysis papers, we would like you to write a summary/abstract to test out your central focus and key points for the paper. An abstract is a brief overview of the main topic and goals of an academic article. Ideally, someone should be able to read your abstract and get a good general idea of what they will get out of the piece.

Breakdown: Your abstract should include:

1. A brief introduction to the issue you are focusing on and why it is important
2. A overview of the main goals of the paper—what topics will you discuss, and what do you plan to reveal about these topics?
   1. Think about the main point or points you will be making in each subsection of your paper
3. An introduction to your main take-away/thesis. The abstract does not necessarily have to include your thesis statement, but it should provide an idea of what you plan to conclude about the significance of your topic overall
   1. In this case, what will you be concluding about the impact of your issue on the Africana community in Southern California and how the Africana community has responded to this issue?

Here’s an example of approximately what an APA-style abstract should look like and do:

A Note on Topics: Before you start writing your abstract, make sure that you have zeroed in on a specific part of the issue you are focusing on. We want to avoid broad arguments about how your issue has had a “negative impact” or been “bad” or “good” for the Africana community in general. What negative impact? How has it been bad or good? Answering these questions requires that you zero in on just one particular way in which your issue has impacted the community.

• For e.g., when I started my sample research for this assignment, my topic was quite broad—the impact of gentrification on Latinx folks in LA—but by the time I started writing my sample paper, I had zoomed in on the impact of gentrification on Latinx-owned businesses in Boyle Heights. This made it significantly easier for me to make a focused, specific claim as to how gentrification has impacted this community. You should strive for a similar kind of focus in your abstract/summary

• Length: 1000-1250 wordsStyle: APA (1-inch margins, 12 font, Times New Roman, double-spaced, no need for a cover page)Sources: At least 3 scholarly sources and 1 primary sourceThe Assignment: Write a paper where you argue a side about a political issue that currently impacts Black people in Southern California (food insecurity, education inequities, representation in politics or media, cultural appropriation, police harassment and surveillance, housing discrimination and gentrification, healthcare, etc.). In your paper, make sure to include how Africana people in Southern California resisted or rebelled against the issue you chose.Argument: Your paper should answer the following, “How has [issue of your choice] impacted the Africana community in Southern California over the last 20 years, and how has the community responded to this issue?” You should summarize your response in a thesis statement at the end of the introduction and support/expand on your perspective throughout the body of the paper.Research: Your research should include at least:
  • 3 articles from scholarly, peer-reviewed journals or chapters from scholarly books that discuss the significance of the issue you are focusing on
  • 1 primary source that represents a voice from the community, such as from an interview, news report, YouTube video, autobiography, poem, social media post, interview, or other source.

  Analysis: As in your Historical paper, all discussion in this paper should be supported by quoted or paraphrased references to your research. If you don’t have the evidence you need to fully flesh out your perspective, conduct more research! You should also comment on any evidence you introduce into the discussion to explain how it supports your perspective. This will require that you analyze each quoted or paraphrased reference to clarify how it connects to the point you are making.Organization: You should structure the body of the paper around the development of your central argument. You are going to want to think about what information your audience needs first in order to fully appreciate the perspective you are defending (probably some background on the issue you are focusing on!) and then build on this info by discussing this issue impacts the Africana community in LA and how the community has responded to this issue thereafter. It would be wise to consider splitting your paper up into subsections, each containing several paragraphs, along these lines:

  1. Intro
  2. Subsection 1: Background on issue
  3. Subsection 2: How issue has impacted Africana community in LA
  4. Subsection 3: How Africana community in LA has responded to issue
  5. Conclusion

  Within each section, make sure to use topic and transition sentences to connect the ideas in one paragraph to the next.
