We are focusing on the history of New York City (The Bronx) and Jamaica during this week. In that spirit, listen to the Fugees’ album “The Score” (1996). For your weekly reflection, we’d like you to write 300-380words that highlight two links that hear between hip-hop and reggae on the album. How does the music highlight the historical connections or dynamic between the United States and the Caribbean, whether in terms of lyrics or sound/samples? Feel free to focus on specific songs; you do not have to write about the whole album. (Whosampled and Genius should be helpful in reviewing the album)

Poetry
“Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night”
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rage at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see the blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
By Dylan Thomas (1914 – 1953)
“Psalm of Life”
Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream! –
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.
Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.
Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;
But to act, that each to-morrow
Find us farther than to-day.
Art is long, and Time is fleeting,
And our hearts, though stout and brave,
Still, like muffled drums, are beating
Funeral marches to the grave.
In the world’s broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of Life,
Be not like dumb, driven cattle!
Be a hero in the strife!
Trust no Future, howe’er pleasant!
Let the dead Past bury its dead!
Act,–act in the living Present!
Heart within, and God o’erhead!
Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time;
Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing o’er life’s solemn main,
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.
Let us, then, be up and doing,
With a heart for any fate;
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labor and to wait.
By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807 – 1882)

Directions:
NOTE: By the deadline given, read these assignment instructions and begin thinking about your Memoir Essay. As stated above, the essay draft itself is not due until Week 4.
To prepare for your first essay, read Chapter 18, “Memoirs,” in The Norton Field Guide to Writing.
(As you read the Norton Field Guide, you’ll see highlighted words in each chapter. These color-coded words are connected with page numbers in the margins of the pages. If you’d like to read more about any of the highlighted skills, please turn to the corresponding pages and read on!)
The assignment
In Composition I, you will write four essays, which will be written first as rough drafts. Those drafts will then be peer reviewed and revised into final papers.
For your first essay, you will write a Memoir Essay in which you reflect on a pivotal event or person in your life. Choose an event that changed you (it can be a “small” event as long as you were changed by the experience), or, write your essay about a person who’s had an impact on your life. Your goal is to use plenty of descriptive detail to unfold an engaging story which builds suspense and character. Your essay should clearly reflect the significance of the event or person in your life.
An average length for this essay is four to six pages. Although you may exceed this length, ensure your essay is concisely written and focused. Remember, you’re not writing your life story; keep your essay focused on a few significant scenes. A memoir draft that doesn’t reach four pages, on the other hand, may lack development and detail, and you may need to expand your focus or further develop your scenes before submitting your final paper.
Your draft will be read by some of your classmates, who will offer suggestions for improving your essay. Please remember your audience when you choose your topic and the extent of your revelation.
MLA format
The essays you write for college should be in an academic format. In Comp. I, and most humanities classes, essays are formatted in MLA style. “MLA” stands for Modern Language Association, an organization that helps set guidelines for how academic work in the humanities will be formatted. In this class, you’ll want to format all your papers in MLA style.
For now, this means you use one-inch margins on each page. Your sentences are double-spaced and in a readable 11 or 12-point font. On the first page of your paper, you will list four lines of personal information — your name, my name, the class name, and the date the final paper is due. Below these four lines, the title is centered. The title is not bolded, put in quotation marks, underlined, or italicized and is in the same font as the rest of the paper. Capitalize the first and last words and “important” words in the title.
Page numbers are formatted with your last name and the page number in the upper right-hand corner of each page. Note that there is no punctuation between the name and page number. Your page numbers should go within the top one-inch margin, not at the bottom of it. The easiest way to accomplish that is with a header.
See p. 588 in the Norton Field Guide for an example of what the first page of your essay should look like.
After writing your first draft…
After writing the first draft of your Memoir Essay, you’ll want to follow these steps.
Read your draft out loud. Listen for vague or “filler” words, awkward, wordy, or unclear sentences, and obvious grammar errors. Mark these problems on your draft.
Determine if you’ve added enough detail about the 5 W’s of narration: is it clear WHAT happens? Do you sufficiently describe WHO the characters are in your story? Is it clear WHEN and WHERE this story is taking place? Is it clear WHY this person or event is significant to you? Mark up your draft with suggestions for improvement.
Make the revisions you deemed were necessary in steps 1 and 2.
When you’re satisfied, submit your essay (your rough draft) for peer review. (You’ll find the instructions for this task later in the course.) Even though your rough draft isn’t due until Week 4, you’ll want to be pondering and planning it now.
A memoir looks with hindsight on a significant person or event and reflects on its significance; writing this essay can be a deeply meaningful adventure! Enjoy it, and give some thought this week to what you may write about. If you have questions about the Memoir Essay, please let me know.
