Background reading

Yesterday I met L on campus, and we went to the library together. She let me use her login, since mine expired, and I downloaded a bunch of academic papers on Fatih Akin's movies, Turkish Germans, and identity. And a couple on queer (Turkish) German topics. And used the fancy new book scanner to scan 2 essays in a book compiling conference papers.

Now I just have to read them all and figure out what I want to write this paper about. This would be much easier if I actually had 10-20-page papers with academic sources from college, but we never wrote papers in German class, and my other classes were all 3-5-pagers and using primary sources (ie the books we read in class).

Mainly this paper needs to show the graduate school that I know how write a coherent paper.
