TEACHERS RESPONSE TO THIS PRIMARY RESOURCE:

This is a useful source but it

is not a primary source as it

was not written in 1960s ... a

primary source has to be

written at the time of the

event it is discussing. There

are a lot of primary source on

civil rights. A secondary

sources needs to be a journal

or book see again the

handout for this.

YOU NEED TO FIND ANOTHER PRIMARY SOURCE FOR THIS PAPER PLEASE!!!!

Thesis:

Looking at immigrants’ history in the U.S., there are limited opportunities to the Chinese

immigrants yet their contribution to the development of the United States was significant.

TEACHERS RESPONSE TO THESIS STATEMENT:

You have a great start here

but keep in mind you thesis

needs to reflect the sources

(that is the evidence) that you

have found ... you might want

to work at this as you

progress with the paper.

PLEASE KEEP THIS IN MIND AS YOU WRITE THE PAPER!!!!!!!!
