Blog Question for Week 8

Writing the midterm paper was both challenging and rewarding for me. Some of the challenges included figuring out how I would organize my thoughts (the outline provided in class helped me so much). I also struggled with connecting my paragraphs and providing smooth transitions. Most of my challenges involved the structure of my paper. What I found most rewarding though was the material. I really enjoyed re-learning about all the ways blacks have resisted oppression and actually felt inspired by their actions. I really liked this assignment because it also was a really good review over the material that we have learned so-far this semester.
