Research Paper

In all my life I have always written traditional papers. I have never even heard of a multigenre paper, however, it does sound interesting. I like the way videos and links are incorporated into the multigenre papers. I really don't know what I am going to write about!! I need more than ten minutes to think about it but here is my brainstorming. I suppose if I was going to use American Born Chinese or The Bluest Eye I would write about self image, and the idea of perfection and how peole conform to their societies ideal image of perfection as much as they can. If I were going to incorporate Oranges are Not The Only Fruit I would write about Homosexuality and the discrimination that homosexuals/ bisexuals have to face. If I were to use Blankets as my reference I might write about the importance of siblings or about sexual abuse and the effects. Although I have not read Night or Maus yet I know someone who was a POW and I might want to write about POW's and war and the impact on them afterwards. Like I said I don't know what I want to write about, but whichever book I decide to incorporate I would use one of these topics.

  1. I haven't seen anyone with the POW idea yet, so that could be interesting. The importance of sibling fleshed out a bit could be another good one... maybe how they rely on each other or interact like the brothers in "Blankets" and the sisters in "The Bluest Eye".
