African Union day was about the different countries trying to decide on a rule kind of thing. My country was Somalia and I was grouped with Tyler and Audrey.  African Union day was also about he conflict in Burundi.

I learned that there are a lot of people who will fight and try to win but most of the people don’t win. They can.My favorite thing was being with a group and being able to decide with a group and not by your self. and it was also arguing and you could yell at people.  I like that you could vote or when you wanted to listen  to more you could say something and then you could listen and if you didn’t wanna listen then you would be able to say table.

Jersey Kid.

The kids got clothes from people. This one boy was the last one to get clothes and he was offered the Jersey but if he took it then the other kids wold make fun of him and beat him up.He ran out because he didn’t want it and he didn’t wanna get beat up. Then closer to the end of the movie he was sitting with the police officers listening to the game with the police officers and once the African team won they were ALL happy.

It respects them because then everyone can vote. They are able to do the things that whites can do.  They can do what they wanna do and not have to be told what to do.

I think the Native Amazonian’s should. Not just because they were there the longest but because they make stuff that they can use to get food and water. They can make a bow and some arrows and call it good then go hunt.I was reading they book and it showed a man with a bow hunting for game.

The loggers are taking the tree’s away from them. They cut trees down that they don’t even use and are taking oxygen away from everyone. The loggers also take the tree’s down and so then the Native people don’t have anything to make stuff with so they could die. The Farmers are making farms and it’s taking the tree’s down and the Native Amazonian’s  don’t have a to make stuff out of them.

I thought it was awesome that people came to our school just to tell us about there life. I liked the stories that some people to me. I feel bad for some people because they might not ever get to see there family and friends ever again. Some people had to sneak out just to get to a safe place. The stories people told me were awesome. I had a girl tell me that her family was in a bad place and they could not even go out side because no one could be trusted. When her family got here it was in the middle of winter so her kids were so amazed with the snow that when they got to there house they went out side and stuck their tongues out because they never saw snow before. Then I had this man tell me that when he was about 8 his brother and him snuck out in the middle of night because they wanted to get to a safe place.

It was important because we could lean more about other people and get to know how they live or did live. It was important to me because I wanted to learn about how they got here and how it was to them. One person told me she got here in winter and they loved the snow. Well at least her kids did.

What I thought was cool was that some people had to sneak out and they could have got caught but other people wanted to move cause it was not safe there. Some people might not ever get to see there family again because there family is trapped behind a wall but the person isn’t. I don’t like how people kill each other if they say a mean thing about there president. Some people ate bugs,rats, and snakes just to live.

Sept 11

As I look at the pictures and read the stories in the new’s paper’s from after 9/11, I now under stand how bad it was. I thought it was just like wow plane hit but no it’s like WOW they struck us. I feel bad for them because most of them lost there families that day and a lot of them ether got stuck in the fire or had to jump out or just fall with the Tower’s. I feel disgusted by the people in the planes who did this to them because I mean like why would you want to hurt other people. I feel So bad for the mother who killed her two children because she thought that a demen  would get them.
