0Overall, your sentence seems too vague for a thesis statement (which normally comes at the end of the introduction); it sounds more like the beginning of an introduction to the topic. Your thesis statement should be more specific to the points you are going to cover in your essay; it should even briefly state each point which will be discussed in the paragraphs of the body of the essay.0-
