There are many interesting parts throughout a nonfiction work of writing; the most interesting piece of information I learned while reading Anne Frank’s, The Diary of a Young Girl, was how Anne managed to accept her difficult life while staying positive. For example, Anne understood the problems from the war: “...we really ought to save every penny, to help other people, and save what is left from the wreckage after the war” (64). In spite of the fact that Anne dealt through problems with her…

down and broke her. As a matter of fact, the damage being done is very noticeable when she moves from the south to Lorain, Ohio. In general, it only takes a few weeks to settle in, but for Mrs. Breedlove, it is obvious that was not the case in her diary, she records, "I weren't used to so much white folks... Northern colored folk was different too. Dictly-like. No better than whites for meanness. They could make you feel just as no-count, 'cept I didn't expect it from them. That was the lonesome…

influence their line of thinking, which ideologies they will side with, and the kind of people they will surround themselves with. In regards to past publications, one book that comes to mind is William Luther Pierce’s (A.K.A. Andrew Donald) The Turner Diaries in which have been linked to known lone wolf terrorists like Timothy McVeigh and various white supremacy groups as one of the possible influences for their violent actions. While some people would prefer not to allow any hate literature…

I’m writing this entry from somewhere along the Ohio River. I have escaped my captors and I am making my home. My time with the indians has been horrific. I am only lucky that I have some skill that makes me useful to them. I made shirts for the local trading post that was operated by two Frenchmen Goulart and Laplante. I was paid in blankets which proved to be very valuable among the Shawnee tribe. I feel extremely lucky that i didn’t suffer the same fate as the other captives. First they were…

Slave stories from the West 1920; Cherlynn Williams My life had ended and begun all in one moment. I remember the day it all happened. Thick hot tears welled up in my eyes and I screamed. My Poppa whispered “Calm down, Cherelynn, you’ll be okay.” and I refused, arching my back in the overseer’s arms. Taking a swift kick to his face, I attempted to escape to no avail. Other slaves that were stuffed in the crowded pen began to grab at the overseer’s arms. A warning shot was fired into the air…

To Family 16/10/1851 Hello, I haven’t been able to right the past few days because I have been busy. I want to tell you what has been happening.

At dinner time I have a stew made from Veggies from the Chinese or some Damper and salted Mutton. My tent is a nice one (my opinion), I got some canvas and wood from the store and I made a wooden frame and…

The bell rang and the second quarter of my Kindergarten year at William Cullen Bryant Elementary ended. I grabbed my report card as I ran out into the light snow and spotted my mother's white 1997 Caravan by the stop sign, as usual. An enormous smile covers my face as I hop into the car, eager to show her I had prioritized my academics before sports, as she had asked me to. As soon as I was settled in, I handed her the envelope containing my pride. Proud of what I had accomplished, but to my…

I and he are like twins. A character that reminds me and has many of the same characteristics that I have is Greg out of the book Diary of a Wimpy Kid. First, we both are very humors and spread lots of enjoyment, laughter, and jokes. Second, another thing we have closely in common is our act of being very creative. Third, we both enjoy spending time with family and friends. As can be seen, I and Greg have a great amount of characteristics and traits in common. First of all, we both have a great…
