I have an essay due for my HS senior English final. Don't have any friends so its available here [Imperialism, Vietnam, and Sacred Soldiers] if I could get some feedback. I changed the name of myself and the teacher for privacy; the prompt is "How do varying perspectives, points of view, and narrative techniques define the diverse experiences of a conflict?", "the conflict" being the Vietnam War. The "two sources out of ten" comment is referencing a project for this essay where we had to write notes on ten assigned sources for the final. Most sources are from my own research/reading. Unfortunately it does have to be 12 pt and double spaced even though that gives you like five words a page.

Edit: don't mind the "we are challenged with" bit at the beginning, it's been removed in the actual document

    World Systems specifically isn't directly linked to it but they're more or less adjacent from my understanding. Keep in mind I only did philosophy as an undergrad so I could be misremembering shit. For a university essay I would probably nitpick the Third World part too but it doesn't matter for a high school one.

      I appreciate the info. Yeah that makes sense with high school vs college
