I should see at least one citation
from each source listed on the works cited page.
Example
Also look on your Pink Research Handout.
YEE #1
Time? "The Earth Men"
"Sometimes I ain't so sho who's got him a right to
say a man is crazy and when he ain't. Sometimes I think there ain't none
of us pure crazy and ain't none of us pure sane until the balance of us
talks him that-a-way. It's like it ain't so much what a fellow does, but
it's the way the majority of folks is looking at him when he does it."
--- from As I Lay Dying, by William Faulkner
What does he mean?
"The Earth Men" from The Martian Chronicles by
Ray Bradbury.
Think of a time from history when there was a clash of
two very different cultures. What usually happens?
If someone unusual-looking came to your door claiming
to be from another planet, what would you do? What would you need as proof?
