Dreams and more Dreams

"Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi. From every mountainside, let freedom ring." by Martin Luther king J.R.

This quote really meant a lot for the audience because that is what the audience really wanted. What Martin Luther King J.R. meant in that speech was that he wanted free everywhere. He did not just whant freedom in one state or in the U. S. he whanted freedom everywhere, the whole world. His audience, the black people, were really happy because they would love to be free anywhere they go. They share the same dream as Martin Luther King J.R.

What this quote meant to me was basically the same thing that the quote mentioned. To be able for one to have freedom everywhere. In this case it was for the black people. I think that the quote is something that has come true for in the U.S. but probably not for in the whole world. There are probably still places in where not just black people but probably some other people are not free. I hope one day that dream will come true.

A Dream Deferred
by Langston Hughes

What happens to a dream deferred?

Does it dry up

like a raisin in the sun?

Or fester like a sore-

And then run?

Does it stink like rotten meat?

Or crust and sugar over-

like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags

like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?

What happens to a depressed soul?

by Vicente Diaz

Does it crumble

Like a dry leaf being stepped on?

Or digs a hole deeper inside

And then sink in it?

Does it smell like the stench of blood?

Or taste like the chanse of hope?

Maybe it just tears you inside

Like bullet throught your heart?

Or does it collapse on you

Like a rocket crashing down on solid rock?

My parents american dream

My dad's American dream is one where he mostly worries about his family. One of his American dream is to have a family and live real happy. That dream has come true. His dream now is to make sure that my brother, sister, and me become someone who wins a lot of money. He also dreams of one day becoming an official United States citizen and be able to live his life peacefully. He also wishes to become a United States citizen so that he can travel freely and one day go visit Mexico again.

My moms dream is similar to my dads dream. She wants to also make sure that my brother, sisiter, and me to be someone that can help out our family in many ways. She also whishes to be a United States citizen and also be able to travel. That way she can go visit her family in Mexico and live in the U.S. My moms and dads American dreams are mainly similar.

Illegal immigrants should stay

Undocumented immigrants should be allowed to stay in the U.S. They are human beings too and don’t they deserve to be treated and have the same rights as everyone else? Even if they may have had come into this nation in an illegal way they come here for good reasons. They do not even plan on hurting the U.S. In fact they help it in many way. Most immigrants come into this nation looking for a better life than the one they may have had in the nation they came from.

Most immigrants that came to the U.S. looking for a better job know that they may find it here. When they come here if probably because they hated the way of life they had in the nation they used to live in. They also know that the U.S. has more things to offer. They may sometimes come her to settle for the rest of their life. Buy a house and raise a family in a nation that may have more things to offer than the place they came from. Other times the nation they come from may have problems with their economy.
When immigrants come because the economy of their old nation is messed up they probably don’t get paid enough at their job. When they come here looking for a job most of the time they find a job that pays more than the job they had at their old nation. That is a good things because it improves the economy of the U.S. Even Barrack Obama thinks that immigrants that come into the U.S for a job help improve the economy. Illegal immigrants come to the U.S to take advantage of the many things that the U.S provides.

My Conquered Goals

Luckily I have a few goals that I have fulfil. One of the goals I have accomplished was to go on the Sears Tower. I still have the ticket and the cool memory. I remember that my family and me had to wait for the elevator and the ride up was the longest ride i had ever taken. Once I got in side the section that visitors were alowed I was amased. It was like a luxurious hotel combined with a history fair. There is a lot of information about the building inside that section. When I looked outside the window I was realy amased. Everything was real small. Cars looked like little toys. Buildings looked like patches on a quilt. I will never forget that expiriense.

Another goal i have accomplished is not getting any homework letters so far. I have made sure to try and do all my homework. That is one goal that my parents are real proud about. I will try to continue and try to keep that goal on track. Another goal that I have accomplished is to visit Michigan. I whent there for a party and to visit the lake. My family and I had a great time. We took a long time in the lake and whent walking on the dunes.

The other goal that I have accomplished is to go fishing. I whent with my uncle and dad. Itwas another great adventure because i got some fish. Some people say it is boring but is actualy fun even is you don't catch anything. The sad part is that there is one goal that I will not be able to accomplish. The goal to not get any detension is a goal I will not be able to accomplish. That is because I got a detension for untucking my shirt.

My Dark History

Hi my name is Dennis Robman I am 98 years old and currently living in Atlanta, Georgia. I am going to tell you the story of my dark history. It was the year of 1947 and I was born into a slave family. I was named Dennis Robman by my parents slave owner. My mom was planning on naming me Thomas but our slave owner didn't alow that. Our masters was named George Patton. He was o0ne of the meanest slave owners who ever lived. When he heard that my mom was having a baby , me, he was real mad. He said that her having a child would cost money because she wouldn't be able to work better. Even by knowing that he still forced my mother to work until she could not even stand. The only days she got off was the three days before I was born and even then our master said that she would get whipped for not going to work. It is said that slave owners would take care for their slaves health so that they would have good workers but our master didn't even care about anyones health except his and his wife. Two weeks after I was born my mom died beacuse of all the whippings, hard work, and lack of food because she saved it to feed me. Even worst was that my dad was sold a couple months before I was born. Since I was left alone I was to be sold but my masteridn't want to sell me because he said that I needed to work off what my mom would have worked if I was to never be born. He placed me with another female slave so that she could take care of me, at least until I could work. That day soon came when I turned 6. I started off by picking cotton in the fields with most of the female slaves. When I started to become stronger and older I was forced to work in loading cotton pales into wagons that whent to sell them into town. Unlike the other slaves that got paid .50 cents at the end of the week, I was never paid anything. that was becaused my master said that I had to work off the work my mother would have done if I had never been born. When the Civil War started my master whent to war to fight for the confederate side. Every day he was gone I always planned to escape and join the war to fight for my freedom for my rights and just maybe I could meet my master and shoot him to death. It was not long before he returned. He came back without a leg and had to be on a wheel chair. I was so happy that he got to suffer. I noticed then that I could kill him in the memory of my mother and run away to see if I could find my dad. So not too soon after that I started to talk with all the slaves that were there to see if they would help me to kill our master and get our freedom. Ofcourse they all agreed and they gave me the appourtunity. One day I got in trouble and got sent to my master to see what punishment he was going to give me. Once there I pushed him off his wheel chair grabbed his knife and stabbed him many times so that he could suffer. I cutt off his head and gave it to his dogs to eat. after that all the slaves killed the guards, burned the house, stole good and money, and we all left the place. Since I didn't know anybody I took my own path to try and find my dad. I was told he was sent to a plantation in Virginia so I headed there. Until this day I have never seen the face of the my father.
