POLI 339 Peer Review edit
I think this article has a lot of good information, but there is still some work to be done before it reaches the final version. The article does a good job of covering the range of roles African American women played during the Civil Rights Movement. Another key strength of the article is that it includes numerous specific examples, such as key African American women in the Civil Rights Movement or important events African American women were a part of. The pictures are effective for helping readers gain a better understanding of these examples. The biggest improvement that needs to be made to this article is that sections such as the lead and “Domestic life for African-American women during the movement” need to be rewritten to be more neutral and less argumentative. While the purpose of a Wikipedia article is to inform, this argument is written like an academic article designed to persuade. Another key improvement to the article would be restructuring the sections to be more reflective of the main points of the topic - as the article is written right now, I am not sure what exactly the key points are. Overall, the article is well-developed. More detail could be included for some of the notable people, but most of the events described in the article are done so in sufficient detail. I would just recommend discussing some additional events to better illustrate the key role African American women played in the Civil Rights Movement.
