The visible wealth disparity between the residents of Los Angeles is very stark and can be seen within neighborhoods. Starting at Sunset, near the Greystone Mansion, the…

Others argue fault for the defeat should also lay with Frederick Benteen, the other officer who headed the third company Custer, after Reno and Custer’s companies. Some say Benteen was also near the battlefield when the fight between Custer and the natives began. In the book, To Hell With Honor: Custer and the Little Bighorn by Larry Sklenar, it is said that when Benteen believed Custer to be heading “into battle without him, Benteen became frustrated and angry, and it would now take a very…

On it, it has the faces of four of the most important Presidents of the United States.

a rare case. However, the hospital provided a better care then what the mothers at Fowler Park could provide. In August 2013, my mother and I picked up our belongings and moved to Richmond Hill Georgia. My siblings stayed behind in Cumming, Georgia to not complicate their already flustered lives. Richmond Hill for as far as I knew it to be was a desolated town, the skatepark there was filled alcoholic teens, and the representation of a church was non-existent as my Mother and I had a blank…
