Essay about How the ferguson case played out on the political spectrum
Using Rogerian Argument to demonstrate how the Ferguson case in 2014 played out on the political spectrum.
6+ pages in double-spaced 12 Times New Roman, MLA.
The basic structure should be:
Introduction:
background information : a thesis setting up an exploration of how the tragedy of Ferguson played out across the political spectrum.
4-6 body paragraphs exploring the divide between left-wing and right-wing opinion.
A pivot paragraph: that pivots to a discussion of what both sides could learn from each other.
A conclusion.
The essay MUST be an exploration of opinion, first, and then after lying out the opinions of both sides.
Pivot to a discussion of how both sides have something to learn from each other.
Focus:
How people on the far left wing and far right wing argued over the tragic events in Ferguson.
The left wing should focus on arguing that when doing the practices of law enforcement, the polices did police brutality and racial profiling, while the right wings defend that the polices did not do police brutality and racial profiling because their actions are based on the rational and statistical reason/assumption.
Your research MUST be done with a date limited search in Google.
There are three periods:
1). the first explosion of emotion following Michael Brown’s death: 9 August 2014 through 25 August;
2). The Grand Jury finds Darren Wilson innocent: 25 November 2014 and the week after;
3). The DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE REPORT finds Darren Wilson innocent: 4 March 2015 and the week after. For each period, find one article from each side of the political spectrum to support each position (total six articles). That means you Must make a Rogerian Argument across distinct time periods within the case.
