I am writing an essay about James Baldwin's Go Tell It on the Mountain, but the essay prompt asks me to disagree or agree with the interpretation of an critical essay we read about this book.

Question

For my essay, do I state whether I agree with the article and then use other evidence from the novel to support why I agree/disagree with the ideas presented in the article?

Answer 1

Yes.

Be sure to make it clear in your thesis statement whether you agree or disagree and why.
