Develop a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation summarizing the main points of the article. Complete the following:
Summarize the portions of Singer’s article you seek to engage/critique.
Using the tools of evaluation you have learned throughout the course, create an original argument to Singer’s article that advances your own thesis in light of Singer’s argument. Remember the nature of the stance is not important; you can agree or disagree with any point Singer makes within this article.

Support your argument with the use of original research. Use at least three credible, academic resources to support your
positions.
