"A reparation we need now; Manhattan Beach and Los Angeles County should return or pay for a wrongly taken Bruce's Beach." Los Angeles Times, Mar 30, 2021. ProQuest, http://libproxy.usc.edu/login?url=https://www.proquest.com/newspapers/reparation-we-need-now-manhattan-beach-los/docview/2506446406/se-2?accountid=14749.


This article supports my argument to further provide reparations for the descendants/inhabitants of Bruce's Beach. The article highlights evidence for unjust wrongings and how the eminent domain was an act of racism. I will use the article to elaborate the just cause for the community and LA County to do more to repay the homage they wrecked.

Review of Primary Sources

This is a sound byte of an interview in an archived NPR broadcast. It was published last year and has a blurb at the beginning depicting the situation. Because of these two factors I question the validity of the source as being primary, however, I believe that the content of the interview is very raw and beneficial for the direct context of the situation. In regards to the Tulsa Massacre, the recorded audio is descriptive, candid, and insightful. Additionally, proquest is a very reliable database. I wou...

My Retrospective

 Over this past semester, I've been confronted with my inconsistent tendencies with every assignment, activity, and writing project. I've always known that I despised structured writing. In AP U.S History, I hated writing DBQ's. Researched-based essays felt shallow to me, and writing concisely was never my goal. I came into this semester off the kinetic energy fueling me from last semester-interpreting theatre design. In this class, I could be much more poetic, metaphorically complex, and use rhetoric to compliment the author's own usage. I consistently prioritize freedom, but at what cost? For this writing class, I risk my grade. Further than that, I risk understanding. I always want to challenge my audience, but for them to also understand the basic content I'm trying to convey. My audience will not always come from a highly English-literate audience. With immigrant parents, I should naturally feel considerate writing in a simpler way that is easily accessible, bu...
