Bridget's feedback:

"You've done a good job selecting peer reviewed sources and you show a good understanding of using APA in-text as well as in formatting the references--which can be tricky! With those tools at your disposal, my main recommendation is to focus on creating structure and coherence for your discussion. Right now, your discussion is focused under the umbrella of police brutality, but this is a broad subject and your paper tends to roam around within that topic. I would suggest taking more advantage of the format and requirements of a literature review to arrange your concepts and paragraphs. Keep in mind that a literature review doesn't just share with the reader what the topic is--it also shows the reader what kind of work, discussion, and scholarship is being published in that area, via the sources you have selected. I also recommend proofreading to catch errors and ensure clarity, and I would also suggest being very careful with statistics. You do a good job citing them, but sometimes the presentation is very confusing. Numbers should always be contextualized, or else phrases like "nine out of possibly a hundred and two cases," even with a citation, will confuse the reader."
