Julie's feedback:

"You have a good introduction, leading to a clear thesis statement. However, your thesis statement is not punctuated correctly, resulting in a run-on sentence (two independent clauses improperly connected). You do have several improperly punctuated sentences, primarily a lack of commas after coordinating conjunctions and introductory phrases. In addition, quotations cannot stand alone as a sentence; they must either be preceded by a colon or a signal phrase. That said, your evidence for your thesis statement is strong and your selection of supporting quotations is also good."
