My Ride Home!

Wow! What a pleasent ambrosial I feel that runs through my body when I ride home to Georgia! Just to see that sign makes me feels so delighted to know that I am only a few hours away from home. When I ride home to Georgia I feel like a child going on an adventure though it's only for an ephemeral time. I sit looking out the windows day dreaming while listening to various oldies and gospel music that my mom tell who ever that sits in the front seat to put in. My favorite part of riding home is seeing the "Welcome to Georgia" sign. I would be in an ineffable sleep and wake up just to ask my mommy "did we cross the Georgia Line yet!" To my knowledge I don't remember missing the sign when ever we traveled. I always woke up to see it to get that feeling of tranquility. Shortly after seeing the sign, I'll go back to sleep hopeing that when I wake up, I will be home! As the sign passes by, I then look out the windows and see the cotton fields, peanut fields, peach orchids and the pecan trees. I admire the history behind it. I remember my daddy taught me how to distinguish the peach trees from the pecan trees while riding on the way to Cordele for some watermelons he would sell! When I finally reach my destination ,I feel at ease from everything, if and only if I am ready to come home. This is what I will feel everytime I go home and when I go home for Christmas break!

Ten Years From Today....

Ten years from today I plan to be financialy stable. I plan to be married with children while in my career. I will be a veterinarian and I will have my own business. I want tto be the buttress of my family along with my family. I plan to have traveled to the places that I wanted to go. My life will be filled with the zeal of living the life I always dreamed of. I would have given my mother money to thank her for all that she has contributed to the person I have become. I would have completed all the goals that I visioned. The struggles I had to emulate order for me to build character. In ten years I would have become the nation's best Veterinarian!

Tell about what triggers anger in you

What triggers anger in me is foolishness of any shape, form of fashion. I hate when people think they have the answer for everything. It sends a terrible ambrosial of anger in me. That makes me feel that they are too stubborn to listen to people when having a regular conversation or even when it pertains to their own life and what they should do to change. People have their own dogmatic views and justifications to prove their bogus theories and to be honest I really don't care to hear the noise. Another thing is when people say how much that their going to do something and never keep their word. Your word is bond, supposedely. That's what build your character. I also hate when people that has an equivocal vocabulary shames those who actually speaks lucidly, and blames various races because of how things are written. There are lots of things that angers me but I don't have enough space to to that, but with anger is not the feeling that counts, it's the action that florishes to come out of you if you don't control it.

Election Coverage

The election started off by trying to calculate the electoral votes for the candidates. The race was I would say was not a match because Obama were ahead by several electoral votes. The ambrosial of this historic moment that Barack Obama became the first African-American President of the United States of America. President Barack Obama won the whole west coast with 349 electoral votes and Senator John McCain with only 163 electoral votes. After his victory on last night he audaciously delivered his acceptance speech. He mentioned that this country needs a change. He deeply expressed his love for this country. As he expressed his love for the people and the country he expressed his love for his buttress, his wife Michelle. His speech was so touching that it touched many, many hearts. Most of the southern states were red. To every ones surprise, Florida turned blue. Teens from all ages were so proud to vote. I know I was so excited that I voted in my first Presidential election and it happened to be an historic one. Those who didn't vote should be ashamed of themselves because people have advocated for our rights. President Obama continued to talk about change in his acceptance speech that it did not matter what color, nationality, sexual preference; it did not matter which states were blue and red states that we will always be the United States of America. That to me is one of the most important thing that he has said. President Obama show awesome "presidentialmenship" towards Senator McCain. When I volunteered for the Barack Obama campaign I thought it was useless, but now I have a new light because I can tell my children on how I help in campaigning for this historic election. This is my first election that I actually watched because before I did not have a say in the election. I'm so happy that "MY" vote actually counted in history that has came to past. This election should give everyone inspiration that they can rise above all the stereotypes; by this we should make excuses of ourselves on why we can not succeed. There were some states that were

Dust Tracks chp. 4

In chapter four Zora finds a zeal about adventure within herself. Zora was the type of person that wanted everyone to think and feel the same as she would. For instance, her dad asked all the children what they wanted for Christmas. The boys wanted basketball suits and air riffles, Sara wanted a patent leather shoes with the matching belt, but Zora, a black saddled horse! Her father was intransient about what she wanted and castigated her every motion of ambitions and her imaginations. She was so curious that she wanted to see where the horizon began and ended. She even thought the moon follwed her her every move and got upset because the moon followed her friends also. Zora's buttress was the same white man that help bring her into this world. He was the only one who seemed to understand her. He would periodically give her advice one everything; from liers to fighting. Though he died when Zora was about ten years old, the old white man left a mark that would always be remembered, especially by Zora.

Dust Tracks chp. 2

Zora's father was considered as an "over the creek nigger,"(pg.8) in other words he was a depreciation of a black man. John Hurston had to be about twenty years old and her mother, Lucy Ann Potts, fourteen years old when John and Lucy got married. No one in her family approved of him because they thought they he would attenuate the family name because of his social status. As the young couple struggled they continued to tell themselves that thing would get better. Things did get better. Her father became the Mayor of Eatonville, FL. Zora's family can be depicted as a strong family with a few flaws but always worked through the kinks. Zora and her father had their differences, but their loves was still there. Zora had tendencies similar to her mother and Sara, the older sister, like her father. Though Zora's parents had their moments of when it was hard to express their love to one another, in their hearts they knew they couldn't live with out each other. Despite of the treatment of her father towards her she knew that she had the best parents.

Wanted
The narrator wants the readers to be informed of how her town’s efficacy of its establishment of Eatonville.

But
The Indians, and Spanish were in control ephemerally, but the whites came and went to war against the Spanish, Indians and slaves.

So
The blacks had their own town that were governed by African Americans and the whites could not become dogmatic and control the “pure Negro town” (page 6). The blacks had their own community.

Eternity

Eternity
The Pastor stood up and said “If you don’t give your lives to Christ you will spend eternity in Hell!” Majority of the congregation took heed to the pastor’s warning and gave their lives to Christ, while Antwan, Tracy, and Michael sat laughing and thought twice about giving their lives to Christ. They were thinking that they had all the time in the world not knowing that this day was going to change the rest of their lives! When the service ended on that Sunday afternoon the Pastor call the three over and said to them, “I notice that you all didn’t come to the alter to receive eternal life,” and Antwan replied, “look Pastor I’m living the life I got money, cars, and many friends what can Christ offer me right now?I have all the time in the world to change,” “and what about you two, do you all feel the same way,” questioned the pastor, they shook their heads repeatedly. Pastor added, “Well in the book of James fourth chapter and the fourteenth verse it reads, ‘Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away!’ ” Then Tracy interrupted, “No disrespect to you pastor, but the bottom line is, I aint tryin to hear all that cause what you sayin is a waste of breath. I’m too young to get saved and I still want to go clubbin and if I get saved I gotta give that up! So thank you, but not thank you!” Michael added, “and I’m not sure about getting saved but I’m a good person that I just want to do me.” “Ok I understand that you think you are too young to receive Christ but remember that tomorrow is not promised to you. May God bless and have mercy on your souls because you’re going to need it,” the pastor left to greet the rest of the congregation. The three walked outside silently thinking about what the pastor said. Then Antwan said,” well I’ll see yall tomorrow you know I gotta make dis money,” “alright be easy,” the other two replied. The two also said their good-byes and departed.
It was 3 o clock in the morning on the day of October 31 when Antwan finished making his drop off. As Antwan got out of his car he saw a strange shadow that was following him. He looked back, saw no one, and kept walking until he saw a man dressed in all black with a ski mask covering his identity. Antwan did not recognize who the person was until he took off his mask. It was the Devil himself. He looked so demonic. His eyes were fiery red and his voice was as deep as a trough. The Devil said to Antwan , “thanks for carrying out my plan, I shaped and molded you just the way I wanted you. If you haven’t noticed, you are dead I caused you to get in accident in the car I gave you with the drugs I told you to sell. All of those bad thoughts you thought, I told you think. You know I thought I was going to lose you on Sunday morning at the altar call to our enemy but I knew that you still wanted the life I gave you now it’s time for you to see how I live. Your soul is mine!” The Devil rapidly took Antwan to hell with him.
Tracy and a couple of her friends were at CLUB AQUA. She was drinking and havin a ball until she went on to go dance and passed out. Her friends immediately rushed her to Halifax Hospital. Tracy went into a coma. As Tracy lied motionless on the hospital bed , she was dreaming that she were back at CLUB AQUA. When she walked in the club she noticed that the club’s lighting had a bright reddish-orange color as if they were as flames. As she walked through the club she said, “this aint no CLUB AQUA this look more like CLUB INFERNO!” She noticed that the music she was listening to was very different than what she usually listens to. It sounded like screaming and the sounds of people crying in distress. She then walked towards the middle of the club and saw legions of spirits dancing around a dead body. So she said out of curiosity, “what is goin on over there?” No one answered her. So she walked closer to the body and screamed, “are yall crazy why are yall dancing around this girl can’t you see something’s wrong with her, somebody needs to get her some help!” They ignored her. She forced her way through the legions of these spirits and saw that it was her own corpses and the demons were rejoicing that they had yet deceived another soul. Her soul. Tracy had died in her coma due to alcohol poisoning. While at the club she had too many drinks and was mixing all types of alcohol from the light liquors to the dark liquors. Her dream she thought she was having was actually her death. She cried her eyes out in shame but the demons continued to laugh at her while dragging her to hell.
Michael sat in his room staring at the walls still thinking about what the pastor said until he fell asleep. All of a sudden he felt an evil and unfamiliar spirit hovering over him. He didn’t notice the spirit was there until the spirit held him down with great force, covered his mouth to prevent him from hollering and the evil and unfamiliar spirit instantaneously carried him off to hell. Upon his arrival, Michael was placed in a large, swallowing, and extremely dark cell. The only light there was that of the flames. That same evil and unfamiliar spirit came into Michael’s cell and began torture him. The demon through him against the wall while eating his flesh off of his skin then breaking many bones in his body. Then the demon, with his claws tore open Michael’s abdomen and started pull out his intestines. Michael, battered dreadfully, smelled a stench of burning and decaying flesh. The smell and the screams there were unbearable. The demon slowly led him to the lake of fire and brimstone; Michael stared in fear and in deep sorrow because he saw both Antwan and Tracy burning and deteriorating all at once. Their flesh fell off their bones until there was nothing left. As he watched his friends in agony, Antwan said to him while he were suffering excruciatingly , “ take the pastors advice cause we don’t have a chance anymore to get our lives together but you do. Go warn everyone that this place is real so they won’t have to come here and suffer for eternity. The devil and his angles used us and deceived us by the stupid choices we made just so they can have more people down here burning with them!” Michael woke up at that very moment sweating bullets and breathing as though he was breathless. That following Sunday Michael ran to church and to the alter and got saved. He began to tell the story of his friends and the dream he had. This could be you if your decisions cost you your life and who you decide to serve as your Master: For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Mathew 8:36…. And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Joshua 24:15

The First Black Soutnern Mayor,1963

Maynard Jackson was an ingenious man that rescinded through the wiles of adversity. In this time period the civil rights movement was over but still a process for the south to get used to. By me being from Georgia it really makes me feel proud about where I'm from because Georgia has so much potent history behind it. I know that Mayor Jackson had to battle with the castigation and the cravenness of racism to achieve his accomplishment. He had to be very audacious and wanted to amalgamate the Atlanta community. He knew he would have obstacles but because he knew he could make change, he did not worry about what lied ahead of him; he only concentrated on how he can get there. Could you imagine being apart of history as being known as "The First Black Southern Mayor?" (eyes on the prize). That meant that he was the first African American in the whole southern states to hold a political position as mayor. In his honor the Hartsfield International Airport, in Atlanta,GA, has been renamed Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. Even with the name change there were many people who disagreed with the honoring of the name change. Many tried to fight to have his named removed but then there were huge amount of others advocating to keep it and because they fought for the right cause his name is now permanent.

The Last Lynching

The Last Lynching was such a lugubrious and a time of antipathy during the Lynching Era. The Lynching Era occurred in the years 1921 until the year of 1963; which was a fifty year period. The Last Lynching, aired on the discovery channel, was about the era in which lynching was practiced. In the time of the lynching era if you were black you had a strike against you especially if you were black and a man you had two strikes against you. It is very hard to look at how the blacks were treated in those terrible times. The ku klux klan did not a have any remorse of who their next victim would be. Sadly some of the victims would be women. For example, the Rosewood masscre, Levy County. This was the story of which "a little white lie" led to a genocide of the black community of Rosewood, FL. Prayerfully many fled on a train of safety to Gainesville, FL. Fannie Taylor was the woman who came running out of her house proclaimed a black man came to her house in the morning and raped and beat her. Her lie spreaded like a conflagration and because of that men, women, children and babies were brutally murdered. These cravern lynching mobs would lynch African Americans due to false accusations regarding the law, to prohibit blacks from voting and participating in politics, and to put fear in their hearts. This documentary was an eye opener because this made me think about the people who were lynched just for standing up for a cause as little as sitting in a restaurant just so I can receive the same service as a white counterpart. I believe that all of our black males and females should have watched this viewing because we have seemed to have lost the pride and value of ourselves even when it was involuntarily taken away from us. It even showed how they would lynch us for our nature and race; most of the times it was for recreation. Where did you think the words "picnic " and "barbecue" were depicted from; pick-a-nigger and they would literally tie down their victim set them on fire and watch them burn for fun. They would even use these vivid scene on post card to send to their families in different areas. Today you don't see the kkk's as dominant as before, not saying they are wiped off the face of the earth; but we are still holding their legacy to genocide our own race. So they just sit back and watch what they have created in their efforts of white supremacy, to see the race they tried to destroy, kill each other. Could you imagine your husband, father, brother, son or even your mother being lynched because of our gender and their race? Hard to imagine. So let us not forget where we came from and the lives that were laid down so that we can have the opportunities they fought for us to have.

The Lynching of Michael Donald

Michael Donald would have never gone to get those cigarettes for his sister if he knew his life would suddenly end like it did. The paroxysm of his death was that of angry men. Michael Donald was born on July 24, 1961 and was maliciously murdered by Klansman. It all started with the trial of Josephus Andersonan. He was an African American who was convicted of murdering a white police officer in Mobile, Alabama; in which the case was acquitted.This was in the year of 1981. This really vexed the members of the ku klux klan. They figured if a black man could get away with murder so can a white man. One particular night Michael Donald was walking back from the store from buying his sister a pack of cigarettes when two white men feignly asking Michael for directions to a restaurant. As Michael approached the car, James Knowles pulled out his pistol to Michael's head and told him to get in the car. The Klansman depredatedly found their next victim. As Michael advocated for his life about how he's the only one to provide a source of income for his mom and offering to give them the little money that he had;the two unmoving denied his appeal. They took him to the nearest woods and beat him tire sly; Michael, only trying to fight for his life. When they noticed just beating him alone would not work, they slit his throat multiple times then lynched him ; across the street from James Knowles' house. When his mother heard what had happened to her son she took justice into her own hands. She took the murderers to trial. Henry Hays was executed and James Knowles is serving a life sentence by testifying against Henry Hays. Michael's mother was rewarded 7 million dollars from the United Kl ans of America. Belau Mae was able to buy her first home and later died. In remembrance of Michael Donald, a street was named after him.

Southern School Desegregation

We all should know how the noisome Jim Crow laws were in the South and how desegregation was important to the African American race. When I think about desegregation in the south, Little Rock nine comes to my mind. There were nine students who wanted to go to a better school that offered better opportunities. The only problem was that the school were predominately white. In those times blacks could not attend the same schools as whites. Intransigently, with the ignorance of racism, a selected bunch did not want anyone except of their own kind to attend their schools. When the nine students who were far from being pusillanimous, maybe nervous, walked in that school for a purpose; to get a better education. Sadly, only one out those nine students remained anomalous about being the average African American who usually only having completed the eighth grade. This inspires me because not everyone who says they're for you are with you. You may have to travel some roads alone but in the end you'll notice that, that person or path was not for you in the first place. I value my education because not many people have this opportunity to get a college education. So I leave you with one of my quotes: An outstanding person stands out.

Abortion for or against

I am against abortion 100%, because it's legal murder to an unborn child who did not ask to be in this world, but was taken away because of the choice the mother had made. This is not a peccadillo choice but rather a major one because women who get abortions are not aware of how abortion affect not only the unborn fetus but her body as well. What she have to realize is that when going through any abortion process is indelibly detrimental to her body. When I hear a female who brags on abortion I feel antipathy toward that female. How can you brag about killing a harmless and innocent soul because of the mistakes and irresponsibilities on her behalf. That is unfair to the child to pay for the mistakes of someone else. Children are gifts from God. God is the only one who decides whom to give or take life from. So who are we to get rid of a gift that was given to us by God to love, cherish, and protect! When I think about abortion I hear a little voice in my head saying " Mommy why are you hurting me, don't you love me any more? Why are you getting rid of me?" It hurts because many women say they are Christians but are breaking one of the ten commandments. THOU SHALL NOT KILL! Please if you are a women and a christian think twice about your decisions and abortion because when it all boils down abortion is still murder. Seasoned with love, Brandi.

Everday Use by Alice Walker

The setting in Everyday Use was in Georgia in 1973. The main characters were Maggie, Dee (Jaunjero), Momma, and Hakim ( a Muslim). Maggie and Dee, who later changes her name to Jaunjero, are the daughters of Momma. The movie begins with Momma rocking in her rocking chair in the front yard waiting to check the mail. When she finally checks her the mail, she come across a letter from Dee and starts to read it. Dee is the only one who went off to college to get an education. As Momma gets excited uncontrollably, Maggie is in the bathroom mirror examining her burned body, feeling hopeless. Maggie was caught in the fire at their previous house . Momma save her by pulling her out. Ever since then Maggie very timid with low self-esteem feeling as though Momma loved Dee more; leaving her feeling neglected. Momma ran in the house to inform Maggie that her sister is coming home. Maggie asks Momma how does she look so she can feel a little better about herself. Maggie pace fully walks outside so Momma could view her; Momma complimented her on how nice she looked. On the day of Dee's arrival, Momma sat rocking in her chair with Maggie standing next to her. As Dee pulled up in the yard, Momma noticed that she had brought a guess. Dee Hakim got out the car to greet Momma and Maggie. She took a lot pictures of them both. After that, she then introduced Hakim to Momma and Maggie. Momma couldn't get Hakim name right to save her life. Dee also informed Momma and Maggie that she changed her name. They had their disagreements about the the reason why she had done so and the history behind the name. She couldn't get her name right neither,seconds after they all went inside to eat. As they were eating, everyone were conversing; Maggie not saying anything as usual. Juanjero briefly talk to Maggie to see what she has been up to; Maggie announced her engagement to John Thomas. Several minutes Momma mentioned how Dee haven't written her in six years. Jaunjero made many excuses about being too busy and then insults Momma. Many times. Juanjero notices the churn top and bucket and explains to Momma what she can use it for; the churn top for the center piece for her table and bucket for a flower vase. Momma gave her a brief history regarding the yellow wood churner and then gives the churner to Juanjero. As Juanjero continues to snoop around the house for valuable artifacts, she discovered two particular quilts that her grandmother made. Momma suggested for her to get other two one quilts. The quilts made by their grandmother were to be given to Maggie when she get married. Because of the selfishness of Juanjero, she wanted them any way but Momma pleaded with Juanjero to take the other quilts; she wanted to use the quilts for tapestry in her house. She started to insult Maggie on why she did not did not deserve the quilts. Maggie heard the vicious insults that were made toward her and said that she didn't need the quilts to remember her grandmother. When Momma heard what Maggie said she snatched the quilts from Juanjero and gave them to Maggie. Juanjero mouthed off about how they don't know who they are and stormed out of the house and left. Maggie felt a new light about herself. She felt loved and wanted. Juanjero's motive was to get the valuables of her home to use them to decorate her house; forgetting the heritage of them. The themes of this movie was loneliness, deceit, selfishness, happiness, confidence and love.

I've Been to the Moutaintop Speech

This was the speech the last speech that Dr. King had done before his murder in Memphis, TN, on April 4, 1968. Dr King did not abscond the truth about the ineffable conditions that African Americans had to endure during the civil rights movement. When King spoke about the moutaintop, he basically said that whether or not he would live or die, he just wanted to do God's will. Even though he was stabbed in the chest, he realized that if he had "sneezed" he would have died. Dr. King knew that if he had died that his dream would have became a nightmare but he knew God had a purpose for his life. When he made his speech, to me, was like he fortold his death because he knew that his purpose had ran it's course. Though he was addressing the problems pertaing the sanitation workers, he felt lugubrious about how the segregated south and their "Jim Crow" mentality of hate continued to spread like conflagrations . Dr. King was very influential to people of all races across the globe. We should look at Dr. King's life so that we may become better people knowing that we all can have our dreams come true if we have a vision. He was a very audacious leader that believed that non-violence, perserverence and a strong faith in God. Though they murdered Dr. Martin Luther King, but his dream will always remain eternal.

The Ballot or the Bullet

Malcom X's speech "The Ballot or the Bullet" was so dynamic and powerful because as I was listening to him speak with such passion, it reminded me about our economy today. His blandishing speech would have made me take some action in fighting for the black enconomy if I were alive then. What stood out about the speech was when he quoted," that's the problem with the people is that they're singing too much; they need to stop singing and start swinging!" How I perceived that particular quote is that you do not have to use violence in order to get you point across; it's a thing called perserverence to get to that goal that you're trying to reach. Malcom X were saying to the blacks, in that time period, that they would support the whites and their businesses, but on the other hand you could not get one of them to support their black owned businesses; back then blacks did not have many opportunities then as do today. He advocated for blacks to support themselves and their businesses. When he spoke about the war he was very explicit on how the white man can not win a war on foot but with airplanes and atomic bombs. It made me feel a fervid feeling of how the economy fell then and now have similar attributes. It was kind of scary to me but very true. This is a speech is one of the best I have heard in my lifetime!

My favorite time of the year

My favorite times of the year is Winter and Fall. Fall is one of the most beautiful times of the year Georgia. The color of the leaves on the trees depicts a plethora of different shades of oranges, reds, yellows, and browns. I remember my dad used make us rake the leaves and we dreaded every moment of it. The fulfilling part was when we raked the leaves in a big pile and jumped in them. When I think about Winter it reminds me of winter wonderland . Though the air is extremely cold in Georgia, the smell from the fire place fills the air with the ambrosia of hickory wood. When it rains the water freezes on the trees making the trees look like glass. The snow, looks like fluffy white cotton. One of the attributes I love about the cold weather is that when I go to bed, I turn on the heater and me and my bear cuddle up nice and cozy and go to sleep!

My day at the beach!!!!!!

My day at the beach can be described a sanguine. A day at the beach gives me such tranquility because the roaring of the waves drives me in a state of relaxation! The waves have a taciturn way of communicating with me; causing me to feel at ease with myself. The weather is temperate most of the time but blazing on another occasions. I love the beach because it's a venerator of one of God's most beautiful creations on earth. Sometime I just sit back and think of many things that come to my mind or just need some fresh air to clear my mind. The beach is a place where I would go with someone special just to sit and talk just because the setting is right. There are some things I truly despise about the beach, the unwanted tans and sunburns. I recently went to the beach and I had a blast except I had got two shades darker. What a bomber!

Emmett Till's Murder

Emmett Till was a child anyone would love because of his sense of humor and his outgoing personality. Emmett Till was only fouteen years when he was brutally murdered in Mississippi. His murder was so malevolent, that, his mother requested to have an open casket funeral just so the public could see just how the nefarious acts of racism and injustice emerged in the south. There was about 50,000 people who viewed Emmetts Body. This explains the disparagement of African Americans of the of the segregated south! "Jim Crow" gave the permission for this terrible act of malignent behavior towards the people who technically who built this nation but becuase of the color of their skin, were treated inhumanely. The jusitice system was so discombobulated that years after Emmett's death, Mammie reopened the case, after the murderer's we aquitted previously, tried to get justice for her son and due to racism remained useless. Emmett Till will always be an example of how the practice of racism arise. African Americans should look at Emmett Till life story and understand what racism can cause. Meaning, that though we don't see racism as did the 1960's, it is still existant today.

Yes We Can!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Barak Obama started out his speech giving thanks to all the people that help him to get where he is and the state of S.C. While reading Barak Obama's speech, had convinced me to believe that he is a very audacious man. He spoke so eloquently of the conditions of the United States of America that everything he stated was corroborated. He spoke as if he had already saw an emulation of this country's success. As I continued reading his speech , I got the impression that he have such a passion to see the problems that are corrupting the U.S. vanish by us as a people coming together, dispite the negativity from opposing others, by doing the what people said could not be done . Obama noticed the inchoateness of our country's downfall and believe's that it can be changed through change. He talked about how health care should be improved for the families who can not afford healthcare. He also spoke about fighting a pointless war; in which I truly agree with! I think that Obama is ingenious to the fact of him trying to turn an lugubrious nation back the way it is supposed to be. I belive we can have a better future if we believe in change.

My Autobiography

My name is Brandi Me' Chelle Gay and I am from Riverdale, GA. I attend Bethune-Cookman University and my classification is a freshman. My major is Biology concentrating on Pre-Veterinary Medicine. I have four sisters and two brothers from my dad and my mom has three out of the seven. My parents are Rhonda Denise Law and Lloyd Cornell Gay Sr. They have been divorced for almost ten years; making my mom a floundering single parent. My mom is my butress, God being first, because when I look at the ineffable hardships of her life existance, I push myself to do better. My mom were always explicit about how she wanted her children to do better than she had done through out her life. Her prayers and her guileless in our future has landed us in college; my brother Cornealius who attends Edward Waters College in Jacksonville, FL, a sophmore, and me and my twin attends B-CU. I wouldn't say I've had the worse childhood but I did not have the best. In my life I have encountered a lot of obstacles in my life, but I can say that they were only ephemeral. The only reason I am where i'm at is because of the grace God and I put him first in all that I do.
