NOVEL: The Book of Negroes by Lawrence Hill
IDEAS
For my portfolio, I will be making a narrative essay on how the protagonist, Aminata Diallo, represents as a figure of shifting changes to liberate her oppressed people to freedom through hardships and perseverance. I will use some evidences from the novel and link it to my main points. I will touch base upon the character's involvement with some of the characters and how she learned how to be the person that she is at the end. Also, I will explain Aminata's character development to how she ended up siding with the abolitionists in London and the moral lesson of the story itself. The essay itself would sort of summarize the novel through its major scenes.
One piece of media texts I will be making is a concept map. This would help me branch out my ideas for my essay and also develop my ideas through connections that I may find. I want to branch out the major terms from the novel and find my personal connection with it. I will start with Aminata and something that can be related to what she did her entire journey. For ex, Teacher, Reader, Midwife, etc. With the concept map, I might get a bigger insight with the novel. Also, I think that concept mapping seems to be really fun.
Another type of media text I will be making is a blog post. I will talk about my personal take on the main character herself. I want to talk about my personal connections with how she felt through the entire novel and how it parallels to some of the life situations that I have been through in my life. I would say that I am probably going to make three brief life connections. My conclusion will involve me going back to my general thesis statement and linking that to the three life connections that I made and analyze them. This will bring light to how Aminata Diallo became an inspiration to me personally while reading the novel. I want to connect this to current events as well to make the themes relevant to readers.
