Article Evaluation:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Baldwin

- I chose James Baldwin as the topic for my article evaluation because he was a black, gay man who spoke out about race relations in the United States between Blacks and Whites while also bringing to light the role intersectionality plays within it, especially in regards to sexuality.

- I found the article to be neutral because it simply provided background information on why James Baldwin was who he was.

-I found it distracting how they added a section called "Greenwich Village" because it didn't add anything to the article and didn't contain any extremely relevant information.

-The "Expatriation" section was also distracting to read because it went from simply stating that he realized he was gay in his teenage years, to his experiences in Europe. I wish it was written more cohesively or the information was dispersed in different sections.

-This article belongs to five Wiki Projects that pertain to sexuality and the African diaspora.

- It was really interesting to read the talk page because of the different facts users chose to focus on and check for accuracy. There was even a typo in the article where they referred to his stepfather as "John" when his name was actually David. I also thought it was interesting that there was a section about the use of italics in the article on the talk page was well.

-I clicked on a few of the external links and citations and they do work and look reputable.
