Writing Practice Classwork

Chris Brown and Rhianna have recently experienced some major personal drama. The reason is currently unknown and at the very least, unverified. However, what we do know is that physical violence or domestic violence occurred between the two.

These are the essential questions here: Are celebrities role models? Are celebrities responsible for the examples that they set for young people, particularly African American teenagers? How should a celebrity react in negative situations such as this one? What can role models do to keep their consciences constantly functioning so that they stay on "the RIGHTeous path"?

You are to have completed two drafts of this paper with revisions and then have your final draft/paper graded by a classmate using this rubric. Homework is found at the bottom of the LINKED page.
