Descriptive, evaluative, or reflective annotations? If in doubt, aim to keep your annotations short, but use multiple paragraphs if longer annotations are required for your assignment.

If there are two or more paragraphs, indent the first line of each paragraph, including the first, an additional half-inch (so those lines are indented 1.5 inches in total).If the annotation is only one paragraph long, there’s no additional indent for the start of the paragraph.The whole annotation is indented 1 inch from the left margin to distinguish it from the 0.5 inch hanging indent of the source entry. The annotation follows on the next line, also double-spaced and left-aligned.

Contains a good bibliography and many informative tables and statistics of black wage-earners and mine owners. Johnstone very convincingly uses a Marxist analysis to portray the low-wage blacks as pawns of the bourgeois mine owners. Johnstone effectively examines the labor experience of nonwhites in South African gold mines from a sociological perspective, arguing that the structure of the labor system comes from the industrial capitalism of the mines.
