Need help revising this paper and put in APA format. Have to follow the guidelines of the Rubric and also the directions from the professor. Writing a philosophy paper can feel difficult for students because many people have never taken a philosophy course before. But writing a short philosophy paper is actually very simple, and I’m going to give you a handy outline for getting a perfect score on your paper. In addition to this outline, there are two other tools that you should consult before and during writing your paper: the APA Template that you must use, and the Paper Grading Rubric, which shows how many points various parts of the paper are worth. Click here for information about how to see assignment rubrics. Your paper should be approximately 1000-1500 words in length and should contain four simple sections: Section 1: In a single paragraph, state your thesis and explain any technical terms. The thesis itself is simply a single statement that you are going to argue is true. “God” is not a thesis. (That’s a topic.) “God exists” is a thesis. What counts as a technical term? Simple – if there is anything in your thesis that a reasonable person might say, “What do you mean by that word?” then explain it. Section 2: In a single substantial paragraph or two, explain what the disagreement is about – why do reasonable people disagree about this issue? What does each side typically say? Your goal at this point should be neutrality, fairness, and clarity – don’t make one side of the other sound like they don’t know what they are talking about. When you do that, readers just assume that you don’t really understand your opponent’s view. Section 3: Argue for your thesis. This is anywhere from one to three paragraphs where you explain your strongest argument for your thesis. I strongly urge you not to offer multiple arguments; when that happens, students tend to offer superficial arguments, none of which get developed in any detail. Section 4: Here’s what separates the top papers from the rest: show that you really understand your opponent’s view by offering an explanation of how your opponent might object to your view, and then replying to that objection. Your thesis is the most persuasive when you can show that you understand your opponent’s strongest objection and you can reply to that objection. This section deliberately includes information from AI, and consists of at least three paragraphs: (1) one in which you prompt AI topose an objection to your argument, (2) a second in which you paste the AIs response to your prompt, and (3) a third in which you reply to AIs objection. The APA template contains explicit information about how this should be incorporated into your paper. APA format is required. Here is a template you can download that lets you create a perfectly formatted paper. What should you NOT have in your paper? 1 You don’t need an introduction beyond simply stating your thesis and defining any terms. If you have a very simple thesis without any technical terms, sometimes your first paragraph will be nothing but your thesis statement. 2 You don’t need a conclusion. Let section 4 above be your conclusion – it’s a much stronger end to your paper than just some kind of summary or review. What should you ALWAYS remember to do in your paper? CITE YOUR SOURCES. Let me repeat that: CITE YOUR SOURCES. What is the purpose of citations? It’s to make completely clear the difference between your work and someone else’s work. When you use the words or ideas of someone else, you need to use quotes and citations, otherwise it’s just stealing. If you use the words of other people in your paper and don’t give them credit, it’s plagiarism – passing off the work of someone else as your own. It’s not enough to simply put a reference at the end of the paper – that doesn’t tell the reader how you used that work or where it appears in your paper. The academic policies of the school require you to cite your sources. You should put quotes around words that are not your own. You MUST use quotes when you are quoting someone else – that’s why they are called quotes. 🙂 Students often ask: “Are we able to use sources? If so is there a certain amount of sources we are able to use? If yes, do you want us to have a work cited page?” You are required to use at least two sources for your paper. In most cases, it would be very difficult to write a college-level philosophy paper without sources. You’ll note that the grading rubric for the paper will deduct points if your paper lacks needed research. You can use as many sources as are necessary to achieve the goal of your paper. At least two of your sources must be directly quoted in your paper. A tip about using quotes: Always use quotes to illustrate or reinforce points you have already made. Quotes should always be introduced in some way, or else the reader does not know why the quote is being used. What does it mean to credit the work of others? It means that: (1) You are making clear when you are using the words and ideas of someone else, and (2) that you have provided citation information that allows the reader to easily locate your source. There is no shame in using the words or ideas of someone else as long as you are crediting them – it strengthens your paper, and gives you credit for doing the research.

Write a 750word essay analyzing how the concept of race was created, developed, and maintained from the 16th century to the present. Your essay should explain how slavery shaped early ideas about race, trace the evolution of racial categories over time, and describe how race continues to influence society today. Be sure to address the following guiding questions:

1. Slavery and the Origins of Race
   • How did slavery contribute to the creation and development of the concept of race?
   • In what ways did Europeans use racial categories to justify the enslavement of Africans and Indigenous peoples?
2. Evolution of Race Since the 16th Century
   • How did the modern idea of race begin in the 16th century and evolve over time?
   • What institutions, systems, or forms of knowledge (such as science, law, religion, or government) were used to create, reinforce, or uphold the concept of race?
3. Race in Contemporary Society
   • How does the concept of race continue to influence peoples lives today?
   • In what ways does race still shape social, economic, or political opportunities and inequalities?

Your essay should connect historical developments to presentday issues, showing how race has functioned as both an idea and a system of power. Use clear examples, support your claims with course materials or outside sources, and present your ideas in a wellorganized structure.

This module was meant to introduce you to how Ethnic Studies became an academic discipline. The weekly materials demonstrate Ethnic Studies’ relationship to the social movements of the 1960s and how education was at the heart of movements for freedom. After reflecting on the materials in the module and the lecture, answer the following prompt:

Ethnic Studies is a required course, which is probably why you’re enrolled today. But is it still relevant? Are the student organizers of the 60’s views and demands on education still relevant, or are they outdated? Refer to El Plan de Santa Barbara and/or the Student demands. How might Ethnic Studies be related to what’s going on in the world today?

In your Discussion Post, please demonstrate that you have engaged with both the lecture and weekly materials by directly referring to them.

Reading:

“We want to ask you to consider letting Mattie be an organ donor, Barbara Zepple said. She was the nurse assigned by the Transplant Service to talk with the families of patients who had been declared dead, but were good candidates for organ donation. Would they cut her up more? Matties mother Lilly Warder asked. Its like an ordinary operation, Barbara said. Once they remove the organs, theyll sew her up again. You wont be able to tell that her organs have been donated. I dont know. Lilly Warder shook her head. Its like stealing from somebodys body. I dont like the idea. Do you know what Mattie would have wanted? Barbara asked. Did she like helping other people? Thats what she lived for. Mrs Warder put her hand over her eyes for a moment. Could you make sure they go to black people? Thats not something we can promise. Barbara shook her head. Organs go to people who are most in need, no matter what race or gender or religion. Then Im not sure I ought to give them away. Mrs Warder shook her head. Doctors took advantage of black folks in the past, and Id like to try to make up for that.

Can Mrs Warders attempts to designate organ donation by race be defended on moral grounds?
