How do I take the “I” out of my persuasive essay?
My sentence is:
….based on a certain, race, gender or religion. Because of this I am opposed to affirmative action.
My first sentence of my conclusion paragraph is:
I must admit that I do agree with supporters claims that we can not rely on “race neutral” laws to overcome deeply rooted discrimination.
Can anyone help me????? i’ve been going crazy over this for llllloooooooonnngggg time. And my essay is due tomorrow.
any tips or suggestions….nothing stupid please!

OR
” … The facts clearly agree w. supporters claims…”
OR
“… the facts clearly support…”
“.. the facts clearly sustain what supporters claim..”
Use a Thesaurus, too – they are a GREAT tool! : )
Good luck!

For your other sentence take out the “I must admit that I do agree wtih supporters claims that” and begin your sentence at “we”.
I’m sure there may be better ways, but without reading the whole thing this is all I could come up with. Just a note, any formal writing should not be written in first person (I). I know it’s difficult to do as I’ve spent the last 2 years working on my degree and having to do it 🙂
“Many agree with supporters claims that we cannot rely on . . .”
when reading it over…think about how when you use “I” your reader already knows its you speaking on the subject because it is YOUR essay. With that said, Fix the changes and start out direct on what you were gonna originally say without “I”.
Hope that helped!
