Local Community Groups 4Page Draft Of Final Pape

. A draft of the final paper should focus on a given topic chosen by the students (for example, gentrification and displacement). The draft should be no more than four-pages long. The draft should define the topic and the premises of the topic; student should use the premises to define what interests them the most and use evidence to show this interest. Due Date: July 26, 2018; Return Date: July 30, 2018.

Note: These four-pages should not be outlined in bulletin points (for the obvious reason that it is a writing course). They should also not include the bibliography page, which should not be a listing of what I assign for this class. The bibliography should be the result of your research into the topic; therefore, it should demonstrate your understanding of certain areas within the larger discussion of gentrification. Further, the bibliography should involve both newspaper sources as well as scholarly written articles; if you do not understand the differences, you discuss this matter with the school librarians who can be reached over email or the phone (easily).

Your topic should be relevant to this class. However, given that we are discussing the formation of race, you should also take this into consideration while formulating your topic. The following is a brief list of topics that you can research into:

1. the role of domestic and foreign investment in gentrification (with a specific area);

4. the role of rezoning in gentrification within a specific area;

3. the history of gentrification in a specific area and how it is linked with the history of gentrification in other areas of NYC;

4. NYC politics, politicians, local community groups’ role in the gentrification of a specific area.

If your draft is not acceptable, you will need to revise your draft as a draft. When you revise your draft, it does not make it a final draft. You are simply working on it as a draft.
