Outside Sources

Like the mid-term, this paper will require you to utilize outside sources to help support your answer.

Provide at least two outside sources not utilized for class lecture or weekly assignments.
Definitely still use information and sources provided during lecture or weekly assignments. I just want you to do some independent research as well and not rely solely on what we discussed in class.
These sources should be peer-reviewed and/or rigorously edited.
This means other books, academic journals, reputable news sources, documentaries, museums, government reports, or reports from non-governmental organizations (NGOs).
Be sure to identify the source you’re citing when you use its information.
Please still provide a list of all your sources at the end of the paper.
