Stereotypes Aren't Always Right

One stereotype that is said about most of the slave-owners in the United States around the time of the Civil War was that they were all cruel to their slaves. That is not true. As a matter of fact there is a passage from The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman that states there is a white lady with slaves traveling south. Jane tries to tell them to get moving and that its better in the north. However, these slaves were loyal to the white lady and said she knew what was best and they were sticking with her. This gives reason to believe not all stereotypes are true.

You Should Watch Nashville

One of my favorite TV shows is Nashville. There are three reasons why I like it and think you should watch it.  I like it because the plot is very interesting with a lot of twists. Another reason that you should watch Nashville is because it is filmed right here in Nashville, where I live. Lastly, I like it because there are very good actors and actresses.

Corrupt Power in Animal Farm

One important lesson or theme in Animal Farm is the corruption of power.  This plays a big part in the book because it shows that with too much power, people can become corrupt. Corruption of power happens when the pigs become almost the very thing they sought out to destroy, humans. Animal Farm is a little like the poem Julius Caesar because of this corruption of power.

What I'm Thankful For

There are many things that I am thankful for. One thing that I am thankful for is my family. My family allows me to go to a good, Christian school where they pay lots of money for my education. Another thing that I am thankful for is that God gave me the ability to play sports and do well in school. Last but not least, I am thankful for our soldiers over seas that allow us to live out our lives in this country.

Characters for Julius Caesar

There are four characters from the play Julius Caesar to choose actors for. Those characters are Julius Caesar, Cassius,  Brutus, and Antony. I would choose Chuck Norris to be Brutus because of his age and wisdom. Cassius would be Crispin Glover because he gives off a hungry look as Cassius himself did. Sylvester Stallone would be given the role of Antony because he avenges people in a lot of his movies. Julius Caesar would be played by none other than Clint Eastwood.

Ancient Roman Culture

I did a project on Ancient Roman Culture. I learned about their politics, social, and religious life. The thing i used to present my project was a tri-fold board. I also learned how to present this type of project by using good visual aids. This project was fun to present and even better to make.

What Deserves Our Fear?

What deserves our fear? People are normally afraid of things that look abnormal or animals that are bigger than us. My fears are spiders, sharks, and heights. I would think these fears to be rational because all of them can easily harm you. The only one you can really get before it gets you is a spider. I think that whatever makes you scared is what deserves our fear.
