So for my English 2010 class I have to write an 8 page paper. It's got to be a topic where you can choose a side, so sort of an argumentative paper. The professor gave us free range on any topic we want, but I have no idea. Some help please.

I was just watching a movie about the rwanda genocide. There seems to be big differences on sides. Also, read about the two americans who were talking about the world war and why the nazis were killing jews. Was it because they were being told to, or because they actually wanted to. I forgot their names but it will come up if you google it.

Do a genocide paper, writing it in the point of view of the United States government during it. That's what I did. Got a 100%

something you're interested in. definitely don't choose skiing. choose something well documented with two easily distinguishable sides where there is basically no middle argument. I'd choose stem cell research and/or genetic engineering/experimentation.

I don't want to come crashing in on anyone's party, but none of the topics suggested sound like english papers... Usually an english paper involves a piece of literature. For example: Is Mark Twain's depiction of Jim in the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn racist?

well it's for my intermediate college writing class so it doesn't need to be on literature, and all i really need by tomorrow is a topic, the papers isnt due until april 11th, but our annotated bibliography is due on monday.

anyways i found this link http://www.midway.edu/library/topics but i dont really know which one to pick, theres a pretty good selection

Yeah, an intermediate college writing class and an english class are two very different animals.
