Read Richard Pearce’s "Toni Morrison's Jazz: Negotiations of the African American Beauty Culture" and write a 7-10 sentences summary. Begin with the proper citation for your article.
Your summary should give a brief synopsis of the author’s argument in your own words. Avoid quotations, but give page number in parentheses for any use.After your summary, offer three questions for class discussion. Your questions should create a bridge between the article and the novel Jazz by Toni Morrison.
You should think of yourself as a close reader who has gleaned particular insights from a secondary source whose implications you want the class to consider and push further (making meaningful connections between the article and the novel). Your questions might suggest how the article helps us rethink a particular issue in the book.
