> First 6 pages: indication of the substance/argument of the topic, focusing on the belief that the concept of the ‘American Dream’ started off being realistic, and ultimately becoming more and more difficult to obtain. Run viewpoints from American citizens (ie: lower class moving up to middle class, middle class being able to live the same lifestyle that their parents provided), as well as immigrants looking to find a better life in the US. Lean towards social science as being the viewpoint of this argument (those from lower economic means have less chance for success, those with less access to education have lower chance for success vs. those who have the financial means to get a good education, assistance from family, etc). Include at least 3 statistics/data points from references.
>Remainder of paper include a focus from the humanities: tie in poverty with a work of art or quote from a work of literature. Ideally here you’ll be weaving together the humanities with the social science work for the first portion of the project.
