WHITE SHADOW- I think the white shadow means that god sent an angel in my dream to protect me from th devil.

MY Mom- I think my mom floating in the air means that god lifted my mom to live for him and t show that he is real.

Me being hot- I think I was hot because I'm to sexy for my body.

In my room- because that's the place I'm in and maybe my dream doesn't want me to fnd out I'm in a dream.

The real not made up DREAM part 2

One night it was hot I turned the air conditioner on and I felt better but then I saw shadow and it didn't look like a human shadow and the shadow was bright it was hovering over me so I put the covers over my head and then I saw the light go away and then I took the coves off of me then it went into my moms room I ran in my moms room and she was in the air and he started chasing me then I woke up and went to moms and she said " SHE HAD THE SAME DREAM BUT I WAS CHASING HER". the only difference was that she woke up with laughter and I woke up with tears and I was only 4 years old. TRUE STORY.

MY REAL NOT MADE UP DREAM :)

On One christmas morning I woke up the end

Response to Mr. L LOWWA EAST SIDE

I think your dream was about even when your family member(s) die a little peace of them inside of you and that you can have dreams and it feels like you're inside your dreams a sometimes it is hard to wake up from your dream when you are dreaming about something that you adore or hate or are frightened of. Sometimes you love that person so much hat when you wake up you start to cry or it is hard to forge about a person i is always hard to dream about people when they past away or when you just don't see them no more then you have pain and it gets harder but you have to keep walking.

MAKE A CHANGE

I think Barack Obama will make a change and he is the best for the job. Not only because he is black but because he represents that all people can do anything especially blacks. Now black people don't have an excuse saying the white man always led the country number one is that is racist and number two is Barack is black.
I believe that Barack will help everyone in the world and settle the war.What my parents taught me was that if you speak it in to existence it will happen and that your mouth is powerful. Barack Obama is great at what he does because he went to school for the studies of economics so he knows what he's dealing with hear in 2009-2013 the years he will be in the office.
I think Barack can relate to everyone all over the world because he is white and black. Some people say he's not white he's fully black just because his complexion I think Barack Hussin Obama is great for president. YES WE CAN. CHANGE,WE CAN BELIEVE IN IT. CAN WE BELIVE IN IT? YES WE CAN.

petland response

I am so angry and disappointed that petland sent the same thing to everyone who pleaded to stop ordering from pet mills that shows me that they don't care and as long as they make money they will keep doing what they do. they don't know that they are killing millions and millions of animals that don't even deserve to be killed then buying from pet mills where they keep the dogs until they die and that they don't care if they get sick it is horrible I hate it and If I had one of the powers that would be one of my things I would change. The way to describe petland in words is disrespectful , cruel , cheap/stingy ,uncaring , cold hearted and not giving thought to there customers this should be there logo.... stop sufering save lives say no today tommorow to puppy mills.

TOP SECRET.....SSSHHHHHHHHH

Thank you for letting me know but I don't think it was a great idea to tell everyone some people don't know how to keep there mouths shut and it might be a problem and people will talk about it and she can over hear and then she will disagree and say we have to study for the test then we buy stuff and then we waste our money and then we have to give everything back to stores hope everything comes out good and no one rats us out I think that we can do a better job then the adult party let's have a good party.

SAVE PLASTIC BAGS OR USE YOUR OWN

Plastic bags go where all garbage goes in the dump and when there is wind the bags fly away and start to pollute our floors and our air and our oceans. It carries all kinds of bacteria the can get you sick and it can give you asthma or allergies it also can get you in a car it can get caught in your windshield and you can be in a critical car accident.I think it it bad to just throw your bags on the floor not just only bags but wrapers,soda cans,cartons and all the other stuff tha pollutes the air and it mostly pollutes the earth that we liv on. SAVE PLASTIC BAGS OR USE YOUR OWN

Dear Petland,

I think that it I think it's wrong to get dogs and cats from puppy mills because it is wrong to see how these animals are treated. We spend so much money for pet land to pay your bills. I think pet land should buy from shelters because over six to eight million animal in shelters were killed because know one adopted them.If you take this into consideration you can save a lot of animals lives. Most people already know about puppy mills that they put them all together in the cold with know jackets and if one dog gets sick all dogs get sick.They put big dogs in little cages and then they start to loose there hair. I think that you should constantly buy from shelters because animals in shelters don't deserve to get killed because they don't deserve it.

STOP ANIMAL CRUELTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE NASTIEST DAY OF MY LIFE

When I was in kindergarten Raekwon , Christopher and I would make dares that you can't drink boogers with chocolate milk with veggies that were on the floor and we would give it to the nastiest girl in our grade she said that she is the craziest girl we were saying chug chug chug she was drinking it we were throwing up constantly she had the veggies in her teeth it was nasty I never want to see that again it was horrible I was sick for three days and I wasn't even the one that drank it. She told us that she had to go to the hospital she had a stomach virus it was a bad one too. we would play Fear Factor who ever drops out loses the $1.00 or the money everyone bet on.

Mean Pet Owners

Mean pet owners
They treat animals like thrash and mean bank loaner

The reason animals run away
Because they can't take that pain and stay

Then you see the mean pet owners sobbing and crying
while the cats and dogs are looking for food and still hiding

When The pet finds some leftover meat
they go to heaven while there bodies are laying in the street

Then the dog owners say sorry and the go to sleep
SORRY SHOULDN'T CUT THE SLICE OF CAKE

Mean Pet Owners

A responsibility of being a pet owner is treat it like your family members and love it with all your heart adore it so you can be a better person in life to real people.Don't be a selfish punk when you see a stray dog if you have food drop it on the floor or if you won't get in trouble take it in sometimes you have to be careful because some animals were abused and they will bit you and sometimes they won't let go of you but don't take it personal it was probably there owner.I think it's wrong because spay and neutering animals real hurt but it is the right thing to do to stop overpopulation and stopping animals from being killed and injured and they can't talk to tell you that something is wrong and like the movie throwaway said " pet owners treat animals like another thing they own.

DON'T DO DOGFIGHTS

I think animal cruelty is a horrible thing to do to your animal it is like you are hurting your own family. Don't ever hit a animal especially if they are young because when they get older they might attack you your mom or one of your family members and they will probably think that you abused them which you probably did. Sometimes when you buy a dog or cat and they bark for no reason they probably were abused and they want to be treated like a pet not a bag of trash or a hot dog in the stands on the floor in a yankees game. Don't do dogfights. An example Michael Vick was a rich football player and he wasted a dogs life for what he thought was fun to see two dogs fight for there lives. it's wrong and he didn't even need the money. IT IS WRONG DON"T DO IT BE REAL TO YOUR DOG. You can prevent a dog from fighting when you see another dog come wrap your dogs collar real tight but not tight that your not choking it.DOn't train it to be vicious that it attacks everyone it see's train it and feed it and treat it like a student give it disipline.

THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD

The Underground Railroad was an informal network of secret routes and safe houses used by 19th century Black slaves in the United States to escape to free states and Canada with the aid of abolitionists who were sympathetic to their cause.[1] The term is also applied to the abolitionists who aided the fugitives.[2] Other routes led to Mexico or overseas.[3] The Underground Railroad was at its height between 1810 and 1850,[4] with over 30,000 people escaping enslavement (mainly to Canada) via the network,[5] though US Census figures only account for 6,000.[6]

[edit] Political background
Even at the height of the Underground Railroad, fewer than one thousand slaves from all slaveholding states were able to escape each year, a quantity much smaller than the natural annual increase of the enslaved population. Though the economic impact was small, the psychological impact upon slaveholders of an informal network to assist escaped slaves was immense. Under the original Fugitive Slave Law of 1793, the responsibility for catching runaway slaves fell to officials of the states whence the slaves came, and the Underground Railroad thrived.
With heavy political lobbying, the Compromise of 1850, passed by Congress after the Mexican-American War, stipulated a more stringent Fugitive Slave Law. Ostensibly, the compromise redressed all regional problems. However, it coerced officials of free states to assist slave catchers if there were runaway slaves in the area, and granted slave catchers national immunity when in free states to do their job. Additionally, free blacks of the North could easily be forced into slavery, whether they had been freed earlier or had never been slaves. Suspected slaves were unable to defend themselves in court, and it was difficult to prove a free status. In a de facto bribe[7], judges were paid more ($10) for a decision that forced a suspected slave back into slavery than ($5) for a decision that the suspected slave was in fact free. Thus, many Northerners who would have otherwise been able and content to ignore far-away regional slavery chafed under nationally-sanctioned slavery, leading to one of the primary grievances of the Union cause by the Civil War's outbreak.

[edit] Structure
See also: Vigilance committee
The escape network was solely "underground" in the sense of being an underground resistance. The network was known as a "railroad" by way of the use of rail terminology in the code. The Underground Railroad consisted of meeting points, secret routes, transportation, and safe houses, and assistance provided by abolitionist sympathizers. Individuals were often organized in small, independent groups, which helped to maintain secrecy since some knew of connecting "stations" along the route but few details of their immediate area. Escaped slaves would move along the route from one way station to the next, steadily making their way north. "Conductors" on the railroad came from various backgrounds and included free-born blacks, white abolitionists, former slaves (either escaped or manumitted), and Native Americans. Churches also often played a role, especially the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers), Congregationalists, Wesleyans, and Reformed Presbyterians as well as certain sects of mainstream denominations such as branches of the Methodist church and American Baptists.

[edit] Route

Map of some Underground Railroad routes
Many people associated with the Underground Railroad only knew their part of the operation and not of the whole scheme. Though this may seem like an unreliable route for slaves to gain their freedom, hundreds of slaves obtained freedom to the North every year.
The resting spots where the runaways could sleep and eat were given the code names “stations” and “depots” which were held by “station masters”. There were also those known as “stockholders” who gave money or supplies for assistance. There were the “conductors” who ultimately moved the runaways from station to station. The “conductor” would sometimes act as if he or she were a slave and enter a plantation. Once a part of a plantation the "conductor" would direct the fugitives to the North. During the night the slaves would move, traveling on about 10–20 miles (15–30 km) per night. They would stop at the so-called “stations” or "depots" during the day and rest. While resting at one station, a message was sent to the next station to let the station master know the runaways were on their way. Sometimes boats or trains would be used for transportation. Money was donated by many people to help buy tickets and even clothing for the fugitives so they would remain unnoticeable. Soon after the railroad had freed 300 slaves, some of the freed slaves made a store for the railroad.

[edit] Traveling conditions
Although the fugitives sometimes traveled on real railways, the primary means of transportation were on foot or by wagon.
In addition, routes were often purposely indirect in order to throw off pursuers. Most escapes were by individuals or small groups; occasionally, such as with the Pearl Rescue, there were mass escapes. The majority of the escapees were young bondmen, usually artisans from border states who believed their skills gave them a chance of survival in the North. The journey was often seen as too arduous and treacherous for women or children to complete. Many fugitive bondmen, however, who escaped via the Railroad and established livelihoods as free men, later purchased their wives, children, and other family members out of slavery. Because of this, the number of former slaves who owed their freedom at least in part to the courage and determination of those who operated the Underground Railroad was greater than the many thousands who actually traveled its secret routes.
Due to the risk of discovery, information about routes and safe havens was passed along by word of mouth. Southern newspapers of the day were often filled with pages of notices soliciting information about escaped slaves and offering sizable rewards for their capture and return. Federal marshals and professional bounty hunters known as slave catchers pursued fugitives as far as the Canadian border.
The risk of capture was not limited solely to actual fugitives. Because strong, healthy blacks in their prime working and reproductive years were highly valuable commodities, it was not unusual for free blacks — both freedmen (former slaves) and those who had lived their entire lives in freedom — to be kidnapped and sold into slavery. "Certificates of freedom" — signed, notarized statements attesting to the free status of individual blacks — could easily be destroyed and thus afforded their owners little protection. Moreover, under the terms of the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850, when suspected fugitives were seized and brought to a special magistrate known as a commissioner, they had no right to a jury trial and could not testify in their own behalf, since technically they were guilty of no crime; the marshal or private slave-catcher only needed to swear an oath to acquire a writ of replevin, for the return of property.
Nevertheless, Congress believed the fugitive slave laws were necessary because of the lack of cooperation by the police, courts, and public outside of the Deep South. States such as Michigan passed laws interfering with the federal bounty system, which politicians from the South felt was grossly inadequate, and this became a key motivation for secession. In some parts of the North slave-catchers needed police protection to carry out their federal authority. Even in states that resisted cooperation with slavery laws, though, blacks were often unwelcome; Indiana passed a constitutional amendment that barred blacks from settling in that state.

[edit] Terminology
Members of The Underground Railroad often used specific jargon, based on the metaphor of the railway. For example:
People who helped slaves find the railroad were "agents" (or "shepherds")
Guides were known as "conductors"
Hiding places were "stations"
Abolitionists would fix the "tracks"
"Stationmasters" hid slaves in their homes
Escaped slaves were referred to as "passengers" or "cargo"
Slaves would obtain a "ticket"
Just as in common gospel lore, the "wheels would keep on turning"
Financial benefactors of the Railroad were known as "stockholders".
As well, the Big Dipper asterism, whose "bowl" points to the north star, was known as the drinkin' gourd, and allegedly immortalized in a contemporary song. The Railroad itself was often known as the "freedom train" or "Gospel train," which headed towards "Heaven" or "the Promised Land"—Canada.
William Still, often called "The Father of the Underground Railroad", helped hundreds of slaves to escape (as many as 60 a month), sometimes hiding them in his Philadelphia home. He kept careful records, including short biographies of the people, that contained frequent railway metaphors. He maintained correspondence with many of them, often acting as a middleman in communications between escaped slaves and those left behind. He then published these accounts in the book The Underground Railroad in 1872.
According to Still, messages were often encoded so that messages could only be understood by those active in the railroad. For example, the following message, "I have sent via at two o'clock four large and two small hams", indicated that four adults and two children were sent by train from Harrisburg to Philadelphia. However, the additional word via indicated that the "passengers" were not sent on the usual train, but rather via Reading, Pennsylvania. In this case, authorities were tricked into going to the regular train station in an attempt to intercept the runaways, while Still was able to meet them at the correct station and guide them to safety, where they eventually escaped to Canada.

[edit] Folklore
Main article: Quilts of the Underground Railroad
Since the 1980s, claims have arisen that quilt designs were used to signal and direct slaves to escape routes and assistance. According to advocates of the quilt theory, there were ten quilt patterns that were used to direct slaves to take particular actions. The quilts were placed one at time on a fence as a means of noverbal commnication to alert escaping slaves. The code had a dual meaning: first to signal slaves to prepare to escape and second to give clues and indicate directions on the journey.[8]
The quilt design theory is disputed. The first published work documenting an oral history source was in 1999 and the first publishing is believed to be a 1980 children's book,[9] so it is difficult to evaluate the veracity of these claims, which are not accepted by quilt historians or scholars of antebellum America.[citation needed] There is no contemporary evidence of any sort of quilt code, and quilt historians such as Pat Cummings and Barbara Brackman have raised serious questions about the idea. In addition, Underground Railroad historian Giles Wright has published a pamphlet debunking the quilt code. Scholars note that rural Americans hardly had to be told which way was North, since the sun rose daily in the East.[citation needed]
Main article: Songs of the underground railroad
Some accounts also mention spirituals and other songs that contained coded information intended to help navigate the railroad, but most scholars doubt this too. Slaves who wished to run for their freedom could simply discuss their plans at night; they had no need to sing about their plot in coded language.[citation needed] Songs such as "Steal Away" and other field songs were often passed down purely orally, and others, like "Follow the Drinking Gourd," were published after the days of the Railroad.[9] Tracing their origins and meanings is difficult.[citation needed] Most scholars believe songs sung in the fields pertained to freedom in the next life, not an escape in this one.

[edit] Legal and political
When frictions between North and South culminated in the American Civil War, many blacks, slave and free, fought with the Union Army. Following passage of the Thirteenth Amendment, in some cases the Underground Railroad operated in reverse as fugitives returned to the United States.

[edit] Arrival in Canada

International Underground Railroad Memorial in Windsor, Ontario.
Estimates vary widely, but at least 30,000 slaves, some[who?] saying more than 100,000, escaped to Canada via the Underground Railroad.[5] The largest group settled in Upper Canada (called Canada West from 1841, and today southern Ontario), where numerous African Canadian communities developed. These were generally in the triangular region bounded by Toronto, Niagara Falls, and Windsor. Nearly 1,000 refugees settled in Toronto, and several rural villages made up mostly of ex-slaves were established in Chatham-Kent and Essex County.
Important black settlements also developed in more distant British colonies (now parts of Canada). These included Nova Scotia, Lower Canada (present-day Quebec), as well as Vancouver Island, where Governor James Douglas encouraged black immigration because of his opposition to slavery and because he hoped a significant black community would form a bulwark against those who wished to unite the island with the United States.
Upon arriving at their destinations, many fugitives were disappointed. While the British colonies had no slavery, discrimination was still common. Many of the new arrivals had great difficulty finding jobs, in part because of mass European immigration at the time, and overt racism was common.
With the outbreak of the Civil War in the United States, many black refugees enlisted in the Union Army and, while some later returned to Canada, many remained in the United States. Thousands of others returned to the American South after the war ended. The desire to reconnect with friends and family was strong, and most were hopeful about the changes emancipation and Reconstruction would bring.

3 words.....Jennifer salas GREAT STORY

I woke up to the sound of my cellphone ringing. It was Parker! And it was 7:02 AM. Parker dropped me off late after we celebrated out 2 year anniversary last night. I wonder why he's calling so early. I answer the phone and hear Parker yell "congradulations! You have just won two 50 yard-line seats to the biggest game of the year! open your bedroom window and claim your prize." And before i could answer he hung up the phone. Courtside seats? I say to myself.....To the biggest game of the year...? "The superbowl!" I yell. I hop out of bed as quikly as i can. I open my bedroom window and see Parker standing about a foot and a half away from me outside my window. And in his hands were two 50 yard-line seats to the biggest game of the year. "So get dressed. I'm taking you out." Parker said excitingly. "Now? But its so early. Where would we go?""You'll see"... said Parker, grinning as he blushed and looked into my eyes. So i quikly got dressed and quietly slipped out my window so i wouldn't wake my mom. my parents are very lenient. as long as i do my chores and i get good grades and im back by 10:00 pm, they pretty much let me do as i please.But my dad works nights so hes not going to be back until 9:00 AM; and its only 7:23 AM right now. So i rode on the handlebars of parkers of Parkers bike as we rode all the way to... Denny's! So we sat there for about 2 and a half hours talking while we ate our breakfast special. "It's 10:08 Am," i say. "Shouldn't we be leaving?" 'yeah ur right, lets go." So Parker and i rode his bike all the way to his house. His mothers old suburban car was parked in the driveway. So Parker went inside and told his parents that we were leaving. " it only takes 15 minuts to get there so we'll be there in no time." Parker said. " How could you have gotten such amazing tickets!?" i exclaimed. " I mean, 50 yard-line seats! Thats incredible!" " Yeah, i got them like three months ago" " Wow Parker, i think im falling in love with you." i joked. "uh, yeah." Thats what parker always says when i joke about things like that. Its almost like he's hidding something. So while we were driving i called my parents to tell them that i was going to the superbowl with Parker.They were thrilled that he even got the tickets." well, were here" "The game starts in 30 minutes, lets take to our seats." i say. As we finally took our seats in the stadium, Parker looked at me for a few seconds then said, "Ya know Val, You make me really happy, you really do." And as i looked back my simple reply was, " Ditto." As the game went on , Parker and i yelled and shouted at the players along with all the other pycho fans. The Bears were up 22 points and the giants were down 12 points. There were only 30 seconds left on the clock.The Bears have the ball, he's running! he's running! he's running! Touch down!!! The Bears win! The entire stadium thunders with cheering and shouting. I feel great! I grab Parker and hug him. And at that very moment when the rest of the world cheered for the Bears, Parker held me and said the three most important words that i had longed to hear. And as i held him i said the four most important words back, ....."I love you too....."

to do what you do best and not be labeled
love yourself no matter what then If they say something mean walk away and keep your head up.

SS paper WHY PEOPLE AREN"T TREATED EQUALLY.BY EMMANUEL MCNEIL

I believe people aren’t treated equally because through out history, there has been injustice with certain races. In this research paper I will tell you how people were treated differently and how they were treated like garbage.
Throughout history, African American people have struggled to gain equality in America. For example ,some white slave owners imported blacks and used them as slaves. Most slave owners/masters kept their slaves from learning , reading and writing making them ignorant. They even have little kids working dangerous machines they have them loosing feet , arms and legs.
For example : In world war II, many Jewish people suffered greatly at the hands of some German people , simply because, some Germans believed that they were the master race and other races were inferior(all races were hated by German). In some parts of the world Jewish people are still struggling to gain equality.
Many people died in painful deaths for example: Gas chambers, gunshots and starvation. People even attempted to hide in secret compartments in the house for example: Ann Frank she wrote dairies to show us how people are not different.
Douglass continued traveling up to Massachusetts. There he joined various organizations in New Bedford, including a black church, and regularly attended abolitionist meetings. He subscribed to William Lloyd Garrison's weekly journal The Liberator, and in 1841 heard Garrison speak at a meeting of the Bristol Anti-Slavery Society. At one of these meetings, Douglass was unexpectedly asked to speak. After he told his story, he was encouraged to become an anti-slavery lecturer. Douglass was inspired by Garrison and later stated that "no face and form ever impressed me with such sentiments [of the hatred of slavery] as did those of William Lloyd Garrison." Garrison was likewise impressed with Douglass and wrote of him in The Liberator. Several days later, Douglass delivered his first speech at the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society's annual convention in Nantucket. Then 23 years old, Douglass said later that his legs were shaking but he conquered his nervousness and gave an eloquent speech about his rough life as a slave.

In 1843, Douglass participated in the American Anti-Slavery Society's Hundred Conventions project, a six-month tour of meeting halls throughout the Eastern and Midwestern United States. He participated in the Seneca Falls Convention, the birthplace of the American feminist movement, and signed its Declaration of Sentiments.

Left Behind

Never get left behind,
It will be the worst days of your life.
you'll feel like nothing,
and you will always have strife.
things yu did bad just cut youlike a knife.

Don't get left behind
us kids speak your mind
take your time
Don't get on the wrong path
go on the true vine

Protect your family don't let anything
rip your mind up
then you will find someone
That you love and you never give up
then you say that's what's up

Enemies

Enimies get on your nerves sometimes but, you have to deal with them. To stop your fo's try to treatingthm with respect and then maybe they will treat you the same way.
Sometimes they might say No or they something that might tick you off , If you pay them No mind and don't stoop to there level then they will leave you alone or even say sorry. For example: If they say shut up when you are ting to apoligize just don't say nothing to them walk away.
I know these things because sometimes would be the one apoligizing or the one to say shut up but, I would feel bad and I would tel that person how felt and wonder how I would feel if they told me to shut up.

FAMILY

Family is not family if you only see them ata funerals.

If you don't even see them on a important holiday like christmas ,thanksgiving ornew years that's not family.

We would not see my family If my parents couldn't sing
we wouldn't even be noticed in the family in the family tree

family is people that love
each other and that comes together for little things like birthdays ,holidays or just to come together that's I think family is.

Feelings

Feelings are important
some people can't express themselves
some people don't even talk
sometimes you feel left out
If your dad or mom leaves you before you were born you wold be mad

feelings eat away from your preey personality
feeling can get to your emotions
If you wish you had a great stepfather
I hpe it comes true
If it comes true I hope you have one like I do

mother

Mother, how have you turned out to be so sweet?
How did you raise me by yourself ?
How did you eat?
As I grew up we bonded more and more
Even though I did somethings yu weren't proud of and yu could of kicked me out the door.

God has matched us up perfectly
I love you because your real with me

If you get fired I don't care
As long as we have our love to share
Oh yeah can you clean my underwear

A typical day without my hearing

Hooray I finally go to the hospital to get my hearing aid. I wonder what this button does beep.... beep.... beep.... everyone covers there ears so I try to fit in and cover my ears too as the nurse comes out and presses the button to turn the alarm off. They called and said"Emmanuel michael McNeil McCullough". They repeated it three times and no one replied so I waited and then the nurse talked to me in sign language and said " what's your name I told her "Emmanuel Michael McNeil McCullough''. she helped me into the doctors office and she told the doctor something and the doctor laughed I red her lips and she said "see this is what I hate about disabled people.
The doctor came to me with a flashlight and he saw a tear come down my I he checked my ears and he put a camera in my ear to varify that I was really deaf then he put a black microphone and the I heard people in the background then talked to the doctor and said" you might not think I'm norma but I was born the same way as you , I walk the same way as you and I eat th same as soo if I'm dumb your dumb and one more thing thanks for the hearing aid now you can't talk behind my back".

THE MORAL OF THE STORY DISABLED PEOPLE ARE JUST REGULAR PEOPLE SO IF YOU MAKE FUN OF THEM YOU MAKE FUN OF YOURSELVES BY EMMANUEL MICHAEL MCNEIL MCCULLOUGH.

My disability

If ihad to give up my one of my it would be hearing because it I can wear a hearing aid and it will be like I am a regular person without disabilities. For all the other sensee there are no cures or devices for touching ,tasting ,smelling and sight.

Barack Obama

Barack Obama winning the presidential election to me is a very very very big change. Now black people can't say that the white man held it down because now we made it. 40 years ago Martin Luther King j.r said " One day us as blacks would make it to the promise land but he might not make it there with us ", and that was when he was assinated I think Barack is the best cause he can relate to black people and white people and he knows how to campaign. I hope Obama will focus on the killing in Iraq and focus on everyone in america safty because I think everyday people all over the world are getting killed by gangs and people like drunk drivers.

how much is he worth?r.i.p

Awoken as the day go by I finally relized in the corner of my eye
The devil tries to win but jesus is in my heart and will always will be apart
when my last days come i'll know that we have won and relax cause the battle is done!!!

heaven is what you need in your life
not a wife that constantly gives you strife
jesus can cut you like a knife so watch your back and think twice

My creator created me on earth
theres no price on jesus cause he is first
If you listen to me you were born under his birth
if you know tell me how much is he worth?????

thief in the night

I think aceyalone thinks that when you die you either live you life over again or you go to heaven or hell I mean heck Mr.lahana. another thing that I think he thinks is that when you die is that you have no one to hear you and that you are all alone. I am a christian so I belive that god will count yur blssings and depending on what path you take you will go to heven or you will go to hell I mean heck Mr.lahana.

My Child Labor Poster

met program

I just watched this video where a girl named Joseanna never had the resources to help her parents. So Joseanna had to work and drop out of school. She was frustrated confused and and she probably felt discouraged.The met program helps people stay in school and not work on farms by paying you to study and come everyday to learn and not lose their education. I would say to a store owner that little kids work hard making food in farms and we don't care who made we just put in our mouths. They have to drop out of school and waste the education. He shouldn't buy from farms that employ children.
