Option 1

 * Carrie Buck
 * Lacks historical background on the Eugenics movement and how it started. It also needs more context on how scientists arrived at the diagnosis of someone being feeble-minded. This influenced the outcome of the Court's decision.

Option 2

 * Article Title: Skinner v. Oklahoma
 * Article Evaluation
 * It seems to fall quite short when it comes to explaining it’s background and the precedent used to determine the outcome of the case. I think it is important to add more background information about Buck v. Bell which was a case very similar to that of the Skinner case. The background section of the article also falls short on the topic of eugenics.
