First, you should select a brief passage from Toni Morrison’s “The Site of Memory.”Preview the document Place that passage at the top of your response. Next, you should write (not counting the selected passage) in which you analyze—not summarize—the significance of that selection. This means that instead of merely retelling the chosen work, this response will focus in on the effects or the meaning of the piece through analytical exploration.

Your response might address why that specific passage is important, how it sheds light on the rest of the text, or how it impacts the way we should read and engage with other writings this semester.
