Answer

Brief Explanations:

To determine plagiarism, we check if the student text properly attributes the source and uses appropriate citation/quotation. The student text rephrases part ("Negro America" to "African American experience", "wasn't just" to "was more than") but retains a large portion of the original wording without quotation marks or citing the source. Plagiarism includes using someone else's work (even paraphrased in part) without proper attribution. So the student text fails to use quotation marks for the borrowed phrasing and doesn't cite the source, making it plagiarized as per academic integrity standards.

Answer:

Yes, because it fails to use quotation marks and fails to cite the source.
