I'm doing an ISU assignment on the book The Marrow Thieves. My original thesis was "The Marrow Thieves by Cherie Dimaline shows that indigenous culture is important to our society for survival and success in life, as dreaming becomes the motivation towards which desires and goals in life are reached." but after reading the book it makes it sound like I'm supportive of it - which I'm not. For my new Thesis I have "Cherie Dimaline’s The Marrow Thieves reveals that when Indigenous people are exploited for the benefit of the dominant culture’s survival," But I need help writing out the second part of it. Anyone got any ideas?
Oh, the wonderful world of thesis revisions! I'm here to help you come up with the second part of your new thesis. How about something like this:
"Cherie Dimaline's The Marrow Thieves reveals that when Indigenous people are exploited for the benefit of the dominant culture's survival, the consequences include significant cultural loss, social injustice, and a distorted understanding of human connection."
Remember, it's important to express your viewpoint while still being respectful and acknowledging the complexities of the topic. If you need any further assistance, feel free to ask!
Certainly! Based on your revised thesis, here's a suggestion for the second part:
"Cherie Dimaline’s The Marrow Thieves reveals that when Indigenous people are exploited for the benefit of the dominant culture’s survival, their suppression and marginalization not only perpetuate societal injustices but also hinder the collective growth and progress of humanity."
This revised statement captures the negative implications of the exploitation of Indigenous people, highlighting how it impacts not only Indigenous communities but also society as a whole. Feel free to modify it further to align with your specific perspective and arguments.
Certainly! It seems like you are trying to develop a critical perspective on the portrayal of Indigenous culture in The Marrow Thieves. To help you with the second part of your revised thesis statement, I can suggest a few ideas:
"Cherie Dimaline’s The Marrow Thieves reveals that when Indigenous people are exploited for the benefit of the dominant culture’s survival, their inherent resilience and resistance become crucial in challenging societal power structures and reclaiming their cultural autonomy."
or
"Cherie Dimaline’s The Marrow Thieves exposes the exploitation of Indigenous people by the dominant culture, emphasizing the urgent need for Indigenous communities to reclaim their cultural heritage, challenge assimilation, and forge paths towards self-determination and empowerment."
Remember, the second part of your thesis statement should align with your perspective and the arguments you plan to make in your assignment. Feel free to modify these suggestions according to your own ideas and the specific points you will address in your analysis of the novel.
