Part 1 assignment for photography class discussion board
Assignment for discussion board- final project
1-You are to read the Bold part (what I wrote in big font size, what I am planning to do but rewrite, erase, and add more stuff to it. What I wrote  below is just so you have an idea what IS MY FINAL PAPER TOPIC, ETC.) and then answer the question below for the discussion board
What are you going to write about for your final paper?
Write about 10 to 12 or so sentences about what are your plans for this final project.
2- Then read the 2 classmates’ discussion board (attached) and reply to each separately of the two classmates- a few sentences for each classmate is good. Keep simple
Dont write formal like a paper because is just a discussion for discussion board online class so its not a paper just classwork so keeps simple and use simple wording easy to understand.
For my final project, I am planning to write a research paper about Henry Cartier Bresson because not only I was fascinated with a little we learned from this class about him but I think he was one of the greatest photographers from the 20th centuries. He influenced many new generation photographers    (looked up why he was so famous and how he contributes to photojournalism and photography in general, the decisive moment etc.

Here below is the final project paper that this discussion board assignment is about, I posted this just so you know what my instructor is talking about. Again, this assignment is just a discussion board brainstorm about my chosen topic and reply to two classmates 9 some people chosen to take pictures instead of writing a paper since she gave us the option to write a research paper or do submit photos plus write about the photos. But I choose to write a 4 pages research paper)
Option # 1.) Final Paper Prompt:
Generate your own topic. You must research a photographic artist or photographic art movement and render a thesis topic that incorporates your own opinion. Make an argument about your topic and support/prove this argument with data taken from library books, scholarly articles, and the opinions of theorists and critics. Cite all sources in your paper as well as in your bibliography.

Voter ID laws is the topic
Thirty six states have photo identification requirements at the polls, and with over twenty one million American citizens not having a government issued ID, voter turnout is reduced by two to three percentage points. According to the U.S. Government Accountability Office, this translates to tens of thousands votes lost in a single state, because ID cards are not accessible to everyone.
Talk about voter ID laws over time, including history of voter fraud and how voter ID laws have changed, this is a good article to start with – https://www.ukessays.com/essays/politics/history-of-the-voter-fraud-politics-essay.php
Take a stand on whether strict voter id laws stray people from voting or do not affect it, this is a good article https://www.hbs.edu/faculty/Publication%20Files/19-076_3d09347d-3333-4ec8-8f71-0ce75f44261e.pdf
Talk about how voter id laws might prevent certain types of ethnicities in our country to drift away from voting, possibly find examples showing how equal voting rights have been denied in some parts of the country aka voter suppression
