A great first place to start any research project is to go to the resources on our very own Parkrose Library website. In particular, the resources in the Gale search databases yield some great stuff.
On their website, the Pew Research Center says that they are "a nonpartisan fact tank that informs the public about the issues, attitudes and trends shaping the world. We conduct public opinion polling, demographic research, content analysis and other data-driven social science research."
Use them for any fact/statistics you might need to enhance your arguments!
Our Parkrose Library has access to the Gale online search database, which has access to hundreds of articles, op-eds, primary sources, infographics and more, all organized by topic! So come here to get additional perspectives as you need them (for example, maybe your angle on the legacy question will be all about affordable housing - come here to see what people are saying about affordable housing issues!)
