Describe why and how Karl Marx believes solidarity develops.
Ground Rules
Submissions should be three to four full pages, double-spaced, in twelve-point Times New Roman
font, with one-inch margins, no extra spacing between paragraphs, and no works cited page (it is
expected you will follow the citation model described below). Do not place your name or any other
information (title, date, class, my name, etc.) in the header of the document. You will lose half a letter
grade for failing to follow any of these guidelines.
The essay is due Monday, November 15, at 11:59pm by Canvas submission. It is worth 20% of your
final grade. Late submissions will be marked down half a letter grade for each day overdue. Any
submission turned in five or more days past the due date will start at a C+. Late essays must be
submitted by 11:59pm on the final day of classes, without exception.
Prompt
Describe why and how Karl Marx believes solidarity develops. How do W.E.B. Du Bois and Audre
Lorde complicate Marx’s argument? By way of conclusion, indicate which of these accounts of
solidarity and its sources/barriers you find most persuasive.
Additional Guidelines
Papers will be evaluated based on substantive accuracy; argumentative clarity; quality of writing;
response to the prompt; and following the guidelines in this document.
The length requirements detailed above are requirements, not suggestions.
Do not write a long introductory paragraph. Begin with your thesis statement (1-2 sentences) and enter
the textual analysis straightaway.
Draw directly from the texts. This means quotations, paraphrasing, and page citation. Papers that do
not do this will begin at a B-.
Do not provide a works cited page. It is assumed you are using the required version of the course text.
To cite the text, use the first initial of the author’s last name followed by page numbers in parentheticals
– for example: “the student is engaged when not in class, and in class when not engaged” (M, 93); “All
our children are outriders for a queendom not yet assured” (L, 73). To cite Du Bois, use the following
abbreviations: “Marxism and the Negro Problem” = (DBM); “Dusk of Dawn” = (DBD); “The
Damnation of Women” (DBW). You do not need to cite page numbers for Du Bois.
Outside sources are forbidden. All submissions will pass through a plagiarism checker and I will follow
USF Regulation 3.027 to the letter. It is your responsibility to ensure that your submissions are properly
uploaded to Canvas. I do not consider corrupted or incorrect files as submissions.
