    Sally just shrugged as they were trudging through the muddy, rainy, and crowded streets with wet coats. Everything was obscure, the gutters were filled with dirty water. Their drenched feet and boots whined as they stepped on the cemented sidewalk.Their bodies had gave up on providing heat and presented to the atmosphere’s harsh temperatures. The small droplets upon their face chilled their skin and faintly glowed due to the foggy streetlights. The wind howled and echoed into their ears while the rain pattered down upon the ground .The water flowed down along the sidewalk flooding the drain system. The cars zoomed by so fast that the puddles splashed like a tsunami. With only the streetlights providing illumination along the street, the road…

    When I was in 7th grade I received a “C” on my report card for my algebra class, all because of a homework assignment I had gotten a “0” on. My excuse for not turning in the assignment was because “I couldn’t find my workbook.” My parents were very upset that I got a “C” on my report card due to the fact that they were already aware that the homework assignment was a zero, and that I could have turned it in late and still get a “B” on my report card that quarter. We were scheduled to have a conference with my algebra teacher to discuss my report card grade and why I had gotten it. Not long before the night of the conference my dad told me to find my workbook, but I ended up doing a sloppy job at it.…

    I don't believe that America was truly free in this time. The " Separate but free" made it clear it wasn't. People were being told where to sit and where they couldn't sit because of the color of their skin. If America would have been truly free, laws like those wouldn't exist and people would be able to go about their day without the fear of being arrested because they sat in the wrong seat in the train. There was also no freedom towards colored people because every time they tried to use their rights, it was always twisted to make it seem like they were treated fairly even when they…

    When people come to America and decide to live here one of the first things that they think of is that this is “the land of the free.” In reality, it is not so simple. A person’s freedom in America is limited by many different factors. Citizenship, gender, race, religion, class all play a part in how free one can be. We are not all equal. In recent years, this question of how free we should be has come up again and new limits to our freedoms have been created. After the World Trade Center was attacked by terrorists on September 11th, 2001, President Bush signed the Patriot Act six weeks later. In a state of panic, Congress rushed to give the government more power so that they could try to catch terrorists and protect the American people. However…

    “It is estimated about eleven million immigrant living in the United States, in which six million are Mexican” (Passel, 2005). Many Mexican will sacrifice their family culture and traditions to move to a foreign country for a better way of life. The change of life is difficult for traditional family, having to change their culture traditions and even having to add new ones can have a huge impact on families. Family is a very important factor for Mexican families, having that strong bond and respect for one another is what keeps them united. Families who migrate to the United States take along their culture and their language to maintain and promote it to their children. Families try to preserve the culture, by celebrating cultural traditions and rituals to make them feel closer to their Mexican roots. Having to obtain different traditions was not a negative experience for Mexican families; it was a way to come together and celebrate holidays from their new country. A traditional Mexican family lived by fathers rules the breadwinner, having mother at home caring for children and home. The changes in the home start to occur when both parents are out working, this take a toll on the children attitude and the stress with having to learn a new language. Maintaining the culture in their everyday life was important for immigrant parents, so their children can pass down to the next generation and know their background. But around the second generation of Mexican-American the culture tends to fade because parents do not maintain the culture their parents have taught them. The cost of getting ahead is having to change family cultures and traditions, “Parents chose to relocate to the United States for their families’ economic security and to get their children ahead with bilingual skills and a U.S. education.” (Bacallao and Smokowski, 2007). From all the change and sacrifices made to get ahead, La Familia is what keeps Mexican family united and strong.…

    We have been free for a very long time, but it hasn't always been like that. Ever since Christopher Columbus arrived in the new world, I have had more freedom. The slaves during this time had no freedom. They were only allowed to work and earn a small amount of money, until they were allowed freedom. Freedom is a sign of how we are Americans and why we live, where we live, and how we live.…
