 * Article title
 * Transgenerational trauma


 * Article Evaluation
 * Overall, the article is okay- I agree with the B rating. Some sections (Transmission) are strong and have well developed ideas and strong sources to back those facts up, but other sections need a lot of revisions. I think the best thing for this article is to get more traffic and have more collaborators to introduce more information as well as verify the current information. More citations need to include links that are available to the general public and sources must be credible and not biased. While all of the main ideas seem helpful and are generally accurate (based off the research that I have done so far) specific facts may be questionable or biased towards some opinions/ideas.

Option 2

 * Article title
 * Oakland, California


 * Article Evaluation
 * The article is very thorough and has many different sections. I focused mainly on the demographics and Economy section as it is most applicable to my research. While the information about demographics is very credible (mainly from the US Census, the article does not talk much about currently shifting demographics, and the gentrification that is currently happening. The section on Economy is also very big picture and only talks about major corporations and the overall gross profit of the city. Both the economic and democratic section does not mention the wealth disparity in Oakland and makes it seem as if Oakland is a very rich city and is full of successful people.
