Assata: an autobiography has allowed us learn more about the struggle for Black liberation and the political
climate in the U.S. during the 1950s-1970s. Her autobiography is a primary source document that sheds light on
her personal struggles but also on the social struggles of the time.
Your assignment:
Write a 5 page essay where you analyze Assata’s portrayal of American society during any period of her life
(1950s, 60s, or 70s). How does she represent her society and do you think the social issues that she represents in
her autobiography are still relevant today? Try to narrow your scope to one issue. To support your claim, use
evidence from 1) Assata, 2) Where Do We Go From Here, and 3) your own anecdotal evidence (optional, but
encouraged). Use at least 3 relevant quotes from Assata and 1 quote from Where Do We Go From Here.
