NHD reflection

My NHD project I did for this year’s topic, which was Conflict, and Compromise is Misogyny or Myth women in hip-hop. I also did something really surprising I worked with a partner I usually don’t work with anyone cause I am so use to working by my self but it actually turned out to be a good experience. Yes, we disagreed on some thing we had a couple clashes, but we always still got are work done in a way we both agreed on. While doing this project we did things we never imagine doing and meeting people, we never imagine meeting. We did things like interviewed classmates Juju, Christa, Amie, and teacher/Band member Mr. Todd and underground rapper Chief Honcho. In theses interviews we asked a verity of questions and one of the big ones was "what does hip-hop mean to you?" Over all are project was good and done to the best of are ability.

If only, if only....

Bigger and Gus were imagining what it would be like if they were able to fly an air plane. They imagine flying in the sky and escaping their troubles and fears. They soon realize that what they imagined is only a dream. They realize that they can't fly a plan because of the simple fact that they're black

Bigger Thomas then recklessly tossed her down the air chute .The examiner also confirmed that the blunders to the head weren't the exact cause of death, instead 19 yr old Bessie froze to death. Evidence found at the bottom of the air chute shows that she made many attempts to escape. The medical examiner also states that prior to the struggle she was raped.

My reflection on Service Learning last year

My reflection on service learning last year was that it was fun I did touring at Mc Call Elementary School. While doing that i learned a lot from the kids and I hope they learned a lot from me but overall it was fun and exciting and I hope we do it again this year.

ideas for Service learning

1. Help people in homeless shelters get what they need.

2. Read books to children in schools.

3.Play & Recreation Programming for Children.

4.Gardening

5.Help the Mentally challenge kids and or adults.
