Provide specific direct quotations, examples, or evidences from the non-fiction book to support your positions. Find at least two secondary sources to accompany the primary source. An in-text citation is necessary for all borrowed information, and a Works Cited page must be provided. Basic essay structure required (intro, body, conclusion); a minimum of 900-1000 words (or approximately 100 sentences) must be included. Grammar, spelling, punctuation, sentence structure, and word choice will be factored into your grade, so edit carefully.

Please reference specific direct quotations, examples, or evidences from the book for each evidence.
Create a Virtual Museum. Henrietta Lacks’ children and grandchildren know and/or understand very little information about her cancerous cells (also known as HeLa).

Create a “Wanted” Poster. Several people in the book are notorious for behaving badly. Create a “Wanted” poster for one to four people who exhibit bad behavior. Use the following questions to help you get started: Who is wanted? What did he or she do? Where did he or she commit the offense? When did he or she commit the offense? Should the person be punished? How should he or she be punished? Please reference specific direct quotations, examples, or evidences from the book for each person.
