For my research essay I chose “The Lesson” by Toni Cade Bambara and my thesis word for word is ” Miss Moore wants to show them the unfairness of the world and its distribution of wealth, in the end only two students actually get the lesson.” I have recently, to the best of my interpretation of the story, tried to show how certain actions of Sylvia and Sugar are different from the other students which may show why they were the only ones who actually got something out of the trip to the toy store. I think the kind of secondary source of information that would be helpful to me would be how other people would interpret some of the actions or things the kids have said to help show my point on why only those two got the lesson. So far I have used One search to try to find what other people have written on the actions and words of the children. I have found one result that talks about one thought Sylvia has made that could help my thesis statement.
