I've never really written an outline as formal as this one. Usually my outlines are more like the first draft of a paper that I keep revising. However, most of the stuff that was asked on the assignment for the outline are in fact questions that I ask myself when writing the paper. I found that the in class exercise/discussion was helpful in respect to what you wanted to see on our outlines. I also found that writing complete sentences on the outline does help transfer it to paper format. Like others have said I believe that outline's may vary (as we saw in class) from person to person because not everyone thinks in the same way. However, it is important to have a certain mode of thinking and a particular organization of thoughts in order to make that transfer from outline to paper easier.
As for the topic for my second paper I am also interested in to see the affects of the New Deal on African Americans....I am also interested in what African-Americans thought about what role government should play....Perhaps a good place to start this would be in Dubois' Crisis magazine.
