MJ's feedback:

"Your essay is off to a strong start. You note several key details from the text that relate to your argument, and you make a solid effort at MLA formatting. Your essay feels somewhat incomplete, though; you do not appear to have a conclusion or clear body paragraphs. Consider restructuring so that your paper has a clear intro, body, and conclusion. Further, keep an eye on details such as capitalization, punctuation, and word choice, as there are some issues with these throughout your project. For example, "african" should be African, and the last sentence of your first paragraph lacks a period. For further assistance, consider having your project edited."
