Pre-draft 2.2: Outline for Rough Draft 

A comprehensive outline will ensure that your paper has a logical structure and evidence that is relevant to your argument. Each paragraph should have a separate claim that supports the thesis, as well as evidence and analysis. In order to organize your paragraphs you will have to select and analyze quotations. The argument should develop as the paper unfolds. In other words, paragraphs should not be interchangeable. The outline should follow the format below:

  1. Introduction

    1. Motive

    2. Thesis

  1. Paragraph 1 (Lens paragraph)

    1. Topic Sentence: This should summarize the main idea of the paragraph.

    2. Evidence: include the quotation and the page numbers for each idea (2-3 quotations).

    3. Analysis: briefly explain in your own words what you’ve quoted.

    4. Relevance: a brief statement of how the evidence relates to your thesis.
  1. Paragraph 2 (Evidence)

    1. Topic Sentence: This should summarize the main idea of the paragraph.

    2. Contextualization: When you cite your evidence, what is happening in the episode?

    3. Evidence: include the quotation and the page numbers (use just one quotation).

    4. Analysis: briefly statement of how you will close read the evidence.

    5. Relevance: a brief statement of how the evidence relates to your thesis.
  1. Paragraph 3 (Evidence)

    1. Topic Sentence: This should summarize the main idea of the paragraph.

    2. Contextualization: When you cite your evidence, what is happening in the episode?

    3. Evidence: include the quotation and the page numbers (use just one quotation).

    4. Analysis: briefly statement of how you will close read the evidence.

    5. Relevance: a brief statement of how the evidence relates to your thesis.

Etc. for ALL of the body paragraphs. You should have a minimum of seven body paragraphs. The remaining four paragraphs should either provide evidence to support your thesis or a counter-argument (no more than one counter-argument). Evidence should be organized from weakest to strongest.

Final Roman numeral: Conclusion -what are the larger implications of your argument? How does the text comment on a broader theme than just your specific claims?

Outline for Rough Draft
Individuals from around the world have wished to come to the U.S. to pursue the “American Dream.” For such individuals, America remains a land of opportunities. The increase in the number of immigrants to the U.S. has prompted the government to implement measures to curb immigration. One of such measures is the Immigration Act of 1882, which introduced the term “Likely or Liable to become Public Charge.” Under the rule, many individuals have been denied entry into the U.S., the majority of whom have been women. Historian Mather Gardner’s The qualities of a citizen: Women, immigration, and citizenship, 1870-1965, documents the application of the U.S. immigration law to women to the late 1960s. Similarly, in The Immigrant (2013), Gray demonstrates the plight of immigrant women to the U.S. The public charge rule has been applied unfairly to discriminate against immigrant women and deny them entry to America.
Historically, ideas about gender roles have continued to discriminate against women. “As such, race and gender linger within the shadow of the law” (Gardner 254). This quote demonstrates how gender discrimination was derived from the law. Additionally, deportations were “gendered racial removal” (Golash-Boza and Pierrette 272). The quote shows how the removal of immigrants depended largely on their race and gender. The evidence demonstrates that the law was unfairly used to target women.
Being single is taken to mean a woman is immoral. In The Immigrant (2013), the immigration officer wants to know the marital status of Ewa. “Married or single?” The officer asks. “I am not married,” Ewa replies (Gray). On finding no ground to prevent Ewa from entering the country, the officer indicates that “unescorted women are not allowed into the country, especially in [her] case with the issue of low morals” (Gray). Gender and race mattered in the admission of women at the border. I will close read the evidence offered in the quotations to demonstrate that single women are painted as immoral. The evidence indicates how immigration officers question the morality of immigrant women as a means of denying them entry.
