• A thorough summary of the event, including the incidents that took place and the key individuals involved
• The importance of the event in the larger scope of U.S. history
• How the event changed the daily life of the person from whose perspective you are writing
• A prediction for how the event will make a long-term impact in the lives of those in the under-represented group from which the perspective is being written (keep in mind that this perspective should be written from the time at which the event took place).
