I wish to focus my paper on Esi and her grandson, Kojo Freeman. Kojo, often…

the natural and human grounds, the Great Barrier Reef Committee kept the Great Barrier as a protected Park Authority later in 1988 after continuous studies leading to a human catastrophe’s event from oil drilling in 1927 that killed many species. Mining was banned and the remarkable biodiversity of the Great Barrier Reef and will be a concern to protect it forever (5).

trade and even opened up new jobs. The railroad is able to bring more people at a time into town, which would be a great advantage to the town, because the more people equals more business and trade. People also found work on the railroads and in coal mining.
