PROMPT: Is Under the Feet of Jesus by Helena Viramontes an example of “change writing” according to criteria listed by Mary Pipher in her chapter “The Psychology of Change” from Writing to Change the World? Make an argument with a strong thesis, pointing to at least 3 criteria from Pipher’s chapter that you identify in Viramontes’ Novel.  Describe each of these criteria, and then analyze how Viramontes’ novel is demonstrating, displaying, or using this criteria. Be sure to define Pipher’s concept of “Change Writing,” and summarize the key points of Pipher’s concept of “authentic voice” and “writing for change.” Include a summary of Viramontes’ novel, and any additional sources you wish. Be sure to quote extensively from Pipher and Viramontes, and to quote at least once from each of your other sources. Each source should be cited in the text using MLA format and should be included on your Works Cited page in MLA format at the end of your essay.

PARAMETERS: Using previous essays from this semester as well as notes and discussion board posts, develop a pasted-together, collaged draft of your research paper that you will then revise to demonstrate your complete writing process. Include at least 5 sources (including the Class Novel and Pipher Chapter 7 specifically) in your paper, with each source cited at least once. Turn in a FINAL DRAFT of this paper that has been edited and formatted in MLA, and include a Works Cited page with in-text citations.
