Genre: Informative Essay Using the Surprising-Reversal Strategy (See Chapter 9 for guidance.)
Description: “Using…library/Internet research, write [an essay in the spirit of] an informative magazine article using a surprising-reversal strategy in a tone and style suitable for [an audience of] general readers. Your task is to arouse your readers’ curiosity by posing an interesting question, summarizing a common or expected answer to the question, and then providing new, surprising information that counters or ‘reverses’ the common view. You imagine readers who hold a mistaken or overly narrow view of your topic; your purpose is to give them a new, surprising view” (Ramage et al.).

Possible Topics (Note that you are by no means limited to these topics; they are just possibilities to help you get started. You are welcome to come up with a topic of your own, as long as it is related to social justice and/or racial justice.)
