I need help with a research paper about How was the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act ultimately the codification and result of decades of anti-Chinese sentiment? I have already done an outline, see attached. My professor commented on the outline, see his comments: “There’s a good start here, but we’re taking on too many issues for a paper of this length. We won’t be able to adequately analyze everything here, so we’ll need to focus on a just a couple of them. Note that the research question implies that we’ll only be focusing on the pre-1882 era (up until the passage of the Chinese Exclusion Act), and not the impacts of the act in the years following (thus, no analysis of the 1888 Scott Act, as that comes later.) There are plenty of precursors to the exclusion act, from the shift from the 1868 Burlingame Treaty to the 1880 Angell Treaty, the 1875 Page Act, and so forth. See Beth Lew-Williams, *The Chinese Must Go* (this can be accessed online the same way as Haney Lopez’s book.)”
See below for requirements:
*The length of the paper is 2,500-3,000 words. Note that the works cited page does not count towards the word count requirement. MLA FORMAT
*A minimum of five sources is necessary, at least three of which must be academic (the OneSearch on the library homepage refers to these as “peer-reviewed,” and you can restrict your searches to such sources. Essentially every book in the library is academic.)
*I will be looking for direct references to all of your sources in the paper itself, whether through direct quoting or paraphrasing. It needs to be clear how your sources have shaped your argument in the paper.
*While the proposal asked for a specific research question, it isn’t necessary to reference it in the paper itself.
*this paper must include the formalities of an introduction, body paragraphs, conclusion, and works cited page (the latter of which will depend on the citation style you are using.) You can also include a title page, but it isn’t necessary.
Requirements: 2500-3000 Words Times New Roman Size 12 Font Double-Spaced MLA Format Excluding the Works Cited Page | .doc file

Intro: Looking good. The thesis statement can be further sharpened a bit. It would be helpful to specify how exactly you use media studies and archive research in your thesis, i.e some explanation beyond mere mentioning.
chapter 2 on Dim Sum is overall good. It may make more sense to move the section about discriminatory comments on Chicken feet to chapter 4, making it parallel to the case about the odor of Kimchi. While one of the main arguments posits that Dim Sum facilitates social interactions and cultivates a sense of belonging, your analysis doesn’t seem to have fully supported this argument. To strengthen it, consider highlighting the unique characteristics of Yim Cha that distinguishes it from other dining situations. Incorporate specific examples, interviews, or videos to illustrate these points effectively.
The perspective of fostering a sense of belonging becomes particularly important when discussing how this culture travels overseas. However, your draft seems to completely drop this aspect. Consider exploring how Dim Sum culture adapts and influences social interactions and a sense of belonging in different cultural contexts.
Chapter 3 does a good job of showing how Kimchi is a national food for Korea and ties with its national identity regardless of class. The section on women offers a nuanced analysis. It might be nice to compare the gendered labor here with the labor involved in preparing Dim Sum, which seems to be more gender neutral?
Ch4. The discussion of Chinese food in the US uses the example of Panda Express, while the Korean example sticks with Kimchi. Some rationale would be needed; it would seem random otherwise as there are many other Chinese food available in the US.
In terms of form, the thesis would be further enhanced with editing efforts on the language.

1, Question: What was the situation in Japan about 1850? What were the strengths and weakness of Japanese society? What were the internal and external factors that led to the dissolution of the Tokugawa Shogunate? Try to look at as many different elements as possible. [NOTE: 1850 is before the arrival of the “Black Ships”. The question deals with the situation at the end of the Edo Period, not in the Meiji Period.
2, Question : Oda Nobunaga can be said to have “reconstructed” the Japanese state or, in an alternative model, while he may have consolidated the previous state, he greatly expanded the state (from Hokkaido to Okinawa) absorbing (colonializing or imperializing) areas such as Tohoku which had not been under effective control of previous regimes. Describe each model. What difference does it make what perspective one takes of these events?
