Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article because it is directly relates to my course and deals with Chicana history, which I am interested in. The article is important because it mentions the importance of feminism within the Chicano community. I found the article quite informative and wanted to learn more about the Conferencia de Mujeres por la Raza.

Evaluate the article
The lead section needs more information. The introductory sentence only mentioned where and when the conference was held, but did not describe what the goal of the conference was. Although the whole lead section was brief and concise, there was no mention of setbacks or lasting effects. The content was relative and did mention key concepts, but there could have been more headings. The author could have created a "Controversy", "Attendance", or even an "Internal Conflict" heading to break up the "About" section. Even though the information was accurately laid out, the tone could have been better. The lack of transitional sentences made the reading monotonous at times. There was a picture of a poster from the conference, but I would have liked to have seen photographs of attendees or anything else related to the event. The sources directed me to correct web pages and most of them were academic in nature. The article has all the right material, but layout needs to be improved upon. I did, however, enjoy reading the content.
