  3. Citations • Remember to EMBED your quotes within your sentences. No naked quotes. • The citation comes at the end of the sentence that contains the quote / paraphrase. • Example: Drawing from his experience of fighting for civil rights peacefully, Martin Luther King Jr. stated, “a riot is the language of the unheard,” as he continued his quest of nonviolent action (Davis).
