Writing Homework Help

Please only accept if you completely understand and have previously read the two readings listed below. In this essay you need to have a clear understanding of the concept so please only bid if you know this material.

In five pages (that is, in no fewer than five pages, and no more than five and a half pages):

#1) explain Hill Collin’s conception of positivism and show how it is exemplified in the Churchland’s reading

#2) briefly explain Hill Collin’s four dimensions of Black feminist epistemology, then explain in detail the one dimension that interests you the most;

#3) show how the one dimension of Black feminist epistemology that you explain in detail in #2 could impact the one part of the Churchland reading that you detail in #1;

#4) imagine a fruitful dialogue between Hill Collins & Churchland about what you wrote in #3 (fruitful dialogue means there is no winner, both Churchland and Collin benefit from what each other would say).

#5) explain what the results of #4 could mean for philosophy classes in general.

If you submit someone else’s ideas, words, or phrases, you must cite those individuals: plagiarism of any kind will not be accepted. If you submit ideas, words, or phrases from a previous essay of your own, explicitly state as much. Please do not just represent, word for word, old material.

Use one-inch margins all around, double-spacing throughout, and Times New Roman font, size 12 only–and no title pages or page numbers please.

Notes to keep in mind:

• Paraphrase quotes (unless it sounds the best in the original wording)
• Only use the two sources provided
• DON’T use words like Churchland: says, believes, feels
• DO use words like Churchland: argues, wrote
• Try not to stray from the main point

Important: The introduction paragraph should introduce the five questions being asked. Please create a concrete and clear thesis statement that briefly covers the five questions with your opinion on arguments. No outside sources allowed. The body paragraphs should cover the 5 questions clearly and make sure to stay focused on the specific points that should be proven, to avoid de-railing. Paraphrase quotes that you feel would fit in best (professor likes that). Thank you!
