Analysis Essay #1 Prompts Personal Experience + Analytical Evidence + Textual Synthesis.  In each of the following prompts, you will begin with a personal reflection, and then synthesize your experience with other texts to support your thesis statement. To be eligible for an A, you must engage with at least two course texts. The texts must be analyzed when used as evidence. By analysis: examine specific scenes, language choices, rhetorical strategies, or arguments to support your claims. Essay Prompt 1: Identity, Diversity, and Socially Constructed Identities Many aspects of identity—such as race, gender, class, nationality, ability, religion, or sexuality—are not just personal traits. They are socially constructed, meaning they are shaped by cultural norms, institutions, Capitalism, history, and power structures. These constructions influence how we are perceived and how we understand ourselves. Write an essay reflecting on one or two aspects of your identity that have been shaped by social expectations or cultural systems. Consider how you became aware of these identities and how they have affected your sense of self, belonging, opportunity, or limitation. Then, synthesize your experience with at least two course texts that explore identity and diversity. Your task is to analyze how the texts reveal identity as socially constructed and how those representations help you interpret your own experience—or complicate it. Essay Prompt 2: The Human Condition — Staying vs. Leaving At some point, most people face a difficult decision: to stay or to leave. This might involve a relationship, a friendship, a community, a belief system, a job, a school, a hometown—or even an old version of yourself. The choice to stay or leave often reveals something fundamental about the human condition: fear, loyalty, growth, survival, autonomy, hope, or belonging. Write an essay analyzing a time when you had to decide whether to stay or leave. Reflect on what shaped your decision and what this moment reveals about human nature more broadly. Then, synthesize your experience with at least two course texts that explore staying, leaving, belonging, resistance, identity, or transformation.   Essay Prompt 3: Systemic Privilege and Everyday Life Systemic privilege operates beyond individual intention. It shapes access, safety, representation, opportunity, and credibility in ways that often feel invisible to those who benefit from it. Write an essay reflecting on a time when you either benefited from systemic privilege or experienced its absence or didn’t check your privilege. Then, synthesize your experience with at least two course texts that reflect systems of power and privilege. Essay Prompt 4: Power, Social Justice, and Resistance Power determines who is heard, who is protected, and who is marginalized. It can be visible or subtle, personal or institutional. Write an essay examining a moment when you encountered power—either by challenging it (protests), benefiting from it, or feeling constrained by it. Then, synthesize your experience with at least two course texts that engage with power, social justice, and resistance.  To Earn an A, Your Essay Must: >Make a clear, arguable claim (not just tell a story). This is your thesis statement.>Include thoughtful personal reflection. Include specific narrative and descriptive details.>Use at least two course texts.>Offer a brief summary of each text. Then analyze the texts. The analysis must include textual, quoted evidence. Remember to introduce each quote with appropriate context…then unpack how the quote functions to support your thesis.  >Connect your experience and the texts throughout your essay (synthesis).  TEXTS You can analyze: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gDm5B3R0wnWHXNLAl9Fg0dC_vk-W9pbwEXjB5vFIAPk/edit?usp=sharing
