An Introduction
For your Junior year research project, you will be choosing a topic centered in some way on civil rights to research and write an argumentative research paper. The goal of this assignment is to improve your historical thinking skills and to continue to develop your historical argumentation as well as your analysis and research skills. Additionally, it will allow you the opportunity to explore a topic of your choice in depth. You will either choose from a list of possible topics or choose a topic of your own with teacher approval. I encourage you to talk with family, and select a subject you will enjoy spending time reading and writing about.
