The primary analysis documents is a letter written by a former slave named Jordan Anderson in 1865. He wrote the letter in response to a letter that his former master Colonel Anderson wrote to him.

In the second document, Speeches by Indian leaders, Nez Perce chief Joseph did speeches about the struggle for freedom of his people.
Good morning 2023 Metro Magazine Forum my name is Sienna and today I will be persuasively exploring the negative and positive aspects of the 1960s Australian social and cultural issues of being outcasted from a community in the film Jasper Jones. Hook: (film clip) Have you ever felt like you don’t belong and are an outcast in an over-stereotypical society? If so, you are not alone, according to evidnecebasedteaching.org.au, about 28% of all Australian school students feel like they don’t belong in their community. This is 1 in every 4 students, which is roughly 7 students in every class that are feeling that they are outcasted and discriminated against.

Written Explanation of Individual Response for Speak It is common in today’s world to feel ashamed of what has happened to you whether it is sexually or mentally. Many people turn to depression, self harm, or suicide because they are afraid to speak up about what has happened to them, feeling like no one will believe their story. This is how Melinda feels.
This conversation is a prime example that any person can be civically engaged and that it’s important to discuss issues within a community. It also is a great example that a person who is an advocate for a certain issue may not have all the information, but they can learn from other around them to educate themselves by staying civically
There are so many topics I believe that Richard Wright would've talked about today that it is hard to narrow down to just three. If someone told him that we would have a black president in the next century we definitely would have looked at you like you were crazy but if he were here today he would be proud of how much better we have come today. We have improved as a country today for equal rights and treatment of black people but we also still have a long way to go for we are not perfect. For example he would be very ashamed how black people are still getting killed just because of their skin color. He would also be disappointed that blacks are still getting paid less statistically less than whites considering how many jobs Richard had growing up.

Next, drug testing recipients is not a good use for taxpayer money. Florida started enforcing drug tests so taxpayers would know their money was not being wasted. and of the 800 people tested, only one person tested positive (Cunha). If they tested 800 people and only one tested positive-that is a waste of money. Drug testing individuals costs more than it saves (Cunha).
Drugs are a big issue in the sports industry. Many athletes will take performance-enhancing drugs, such as steroids, to help them play better. These types of drugs should not be allowed because it gives the player a greater advantage over other players who are playing with their natural ability. This issue could be solved if there was monthly drug testing and if the drug was not so easy to get ahold of. Many major league baseball players are getting caught using performance-enhancing drugs.
One side to this controversy would be that because of the screenings it would lower and prevent the use of drugs in poverty struck households. Many law officials believe that if a user had to submit to drug test they would get clean because the need for the government assistance would be of greater priority than abusing illegal drugs. Though this may be true in some situations, poor social classes are not the only citizens abusing drugs. It is well known that drugs are abused by people of all social classes. America needs to broaden their view point on this social matter because it effects everyone, not just those who live in poverty.
Larry’s speech was very interesting it had information I had no idea about. For example I did not know that not sleeping the correct amount of hours can cause a rash. I sometimes do not sleep the right hours but I have never got a rash before hopefully I never do lol. Our body’s need sleep and rest at times even if sometimes we think we are not tired.
Inspired to Make Changes It takes a person who has great morals and high integrity to make a change in the world. Making a change in the world is not easy, so it takes someone who is strong and willing to put time and effort into doing so. Martin Luther King Jr. has shaped history, he has inspired me to want to make changes to the world, and I will take those inspirations and make a lasting impression on the future. Martin Luther King Jr. has shaped history by inspiring people to stop violence and to protest peacefully.
In David Foster Wallace’s “ Kenyon Commencement Speech,” he discusses the importance of liberal arts education in “teaching you how to think” (Wallace, 199). He mentions how education is beyond the knowledge we learn, but about simple awareness will impact the choices we make for better or worse. The real value of education cannot be found in a career (you may or may not be fired from), but it can be found in the way you view things through a different perspective and by considering how other factors can contribute to everyday life. This new approach in thinking will allow us to appreciate our lives and overcome our inner “default setting” towards the world (Wallace, 199). I agree with Wallace’s argument because the purpose of higher education should not be about having career-specific skills and obtaining a degree, but about intellectual and personal growth will help us survive in the real world.
FLHD 1500 Can One Person Change the World? I definitely believe that it only takes one person to impact the word, make a huge difference and change it a better place. That this one person even if not being able to do a lot materially to change the world, still has the power to inspire others and help that person changes the world. It may be hard to believe, but I have a strong belief that one person can set an example for others that may affect the outcome of any and every situation. I always ask myself this question and as Maya Angelou once said, “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel” and that is absolutely true.
