Integration Paper-Homework #1 Solution

  

In the movie, when the policeman notices Odessa in the park, he orders her to leave immediately and shouts, “ this park is whites only, and that means niggers like you best answer with ‘yes, sir’ when spoken to. … … Get your stuff together and get on out of here” (Pearce, 1990).   

“Everyone has the right to life, liberty, & security of person” (United Nations, n.d.). 

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

This should be only one simple sentence. 

 State what the paragraph will discuss/prove 

Include accurate thesis, paragraph key word (from theory), and topic key word (from case). 

For example: 

Article 9 provides insights into injustice against immigrants revealed at the vulnerability of Tarek in the movie.

Explain the assertion in more detail, focusing on the relationship between paragraph key word and the thesis key word. Don’t forget to begin the sentence with a transition word/phrase as suggested in the course pack.  This should be only one sentence. 

  

For Example: 

Specifically, UDHR claims that individuals shouldn’t be forced to tolerate limit movement regardless of nationality. Without a legitimate reason, no one should hold another in custody.

from the theory (an article from UDHR) 

  

For example: 

As UDHR states in Article 9, “No one shall be subjected to arbitrary arrest, detention or exile” (United Nations, 1948).

With this theory/ clearly (explain how the evidence #1 connects with the thesis briefly) 

  

For example: 

With this theory, it is clear that human beings have the opportunity to choose where they live and stay. In other words, it is legitimate for foreigners to stay in another country and they have rights to move freely with no limitation. Unless one presents official permission and motive, no one is entitled to send others to prison.

Begin with a transition (one sentence): This concept sheds light on/ This notion explains why/This theory justifies …… 

+ 

Introduce the evidence: 

In the movie, (clear and meaningful context), “quote from movie” (citation). 

  

For example: 

This concept sheds light on why it’s unfair to arrest Tarek.  In the film, the cops doubted Tarek paid the underground fare, and then they 

checked his ID, even though Tarek explained, “I did not jump it! I paid. I paid!” The 

police officers still did not believe him and asked more questions of Tarek. After 

realizing Tarek was from Syria, they started to handcuff him and did not give any 

opportunities to let Walter explain more (Skalski et al., 2007).

Explain how the theory explain the problem or issue in the case. 

Give details and draw out the key words from both theory and case. 

Each sentence should clearly combine language from the theory or case. 

(the order does not matter, some sentences can begin explaining the theory and move to case, some can begin with case and then explain theory) 

  

For example 

Considering this, UDHR drafters would claim that the police officers infringed Tarek’s 

right of liberty. Because article 9 applies to everyone regardless of nationality, 

handcuffing Tarek without reason is a breach of this article. Tarek, as a foreigner, is 

entitled to the right of free movement as all individuals do, so the officers shouldn’t 

arrest him at their whim. Moreover, when Tarek is confused and anxious about the 

arrest, the officers are indifferent to his concern and explanation. UDHR drafters would 

assert that such an ignorance demonstrates officers’ disrespect and carelessness to 

Tarek’s freedom of movement. Without clear mutual understanding, the arrest could be 

a mistake that causes Tarek to undergo more unfair treatment during custody, which 

doesn’t fit the purpose of article 9.

Summarize in one sentence how the paragraph proved the assertion/thesis 

Make sure to include accurate thesis and paragraph key words (article) and topic key word (case). 

  

For example: 

Therefore, article 9 of UDHR explains the unjust treatment towards Tarek because the 

police officers arrested him arbitrarily without providing legal reasons and showing 

respect to his right of liberty.
