Sit-in

With patience and unity, civil disobeyers can so capture the attention of the government that it takes action, leading to an improved society. The most striking case of this is the Civil Rights movement. The bus boycott, the Greensboro sit-in, the March on Washington—even under the threat of beatings and imprisonment—all created waves throughout the nation and led to the Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act, which legislated an end to segregation and discriminatory voting requirements…

it and then live in today's society we’re we no longer have to tolerate that is amazing. Knowing that they continuously fought for our equality and achieved their goal but some never got to see their goal outlived. I believe as a society we need to sit back and really appreciate the path that they paved for us. Over all I enjoyed the book I feel as though Lewis did a great job on portraying his views and thoughts to his readers. It is a great text that needs to be including within school…

Their moral conviction is strong enough to accept the consequences of following their conscience. For example, on January 3,2017, the NAACP protested the nomination of Senator Jeff Sessions as US attorney general with a sit-in. They opposed Sessions due to his record on voting rights and police reform and didn’t believe that he’d represent their needs (PBS). Because newscasters got involved and 6 NAACP participants were arrested, Sessions’ and Congress’ future actions…

Yellow Card It is an average day at Cumberland Elementary; my face warms from the sun gleaming through the windows, and I sit in my desk in Mrs. Huffman’s second grade classroom. It is a rather cheerful classroom; chairs of all different vibrant colors stationed at each desk, my own being purple. A cushy rug with a checkered pattern displaying the alphabet fills space between the desks and the chalkboard. The wall to my left has the sticker board marking how many teeth each student has lost. I…

Fair with Ryan, my boyfriend, this year. But the one thing I wasn 't excited for was to ride The Ring Of Fire. This was the ride I gazed at from my house, three blocks away. Sixty feet high in the sky, round like a ferris wheel, passengers would sit in a caged style ride, that looped around clockwise and counterclockwise, and occasionally stops at the top. The fire engine red loop reminded me of a hamster, on a wheel who has lost control. We wondered into the crowded Fairgrounds, and reached…

that came to my mind. I remember one day she had came to get me just to ride with her to the store. And on our way there she had bought us some food. We had got McDonalds. I got an sandwhich and fries and ice cream cone. And she got a kids meal. We sit in the parking lot and eat our food. And as I sat there I’m thinking to myself should I tell her what’s going with me or just don’t say nothing. And she says “ What you thinking about over there, you're very quiet today?” So I tell her just life…

Technology serves a very strong purpose in the world. I say cellular devices have more of an affect with this generation. I can’t walk down the street without seeing someone’s face planted into a screen of any kind. I feel separated from the world even though it’s right at my fingertips. Crazy how something so small can hold so much “knowledge”. Wrap your mind around this, one person sends or receives, on average, 110 text message a day. The average person sends 120 emails in one day. Ridiculous…

and worship I don't find the same amount of joy in it as I do when sitting and reading a good book so a book about the excitement of walking with the Lord would catch my eye on any bookshelf. My eagerness for the word and God presence rises when I sit and express my adoration for…

September 22 and September 29th; 7:40 am-2: 40 pm The last two weeks have been a little crazy, to say the least. I really feel like in these past two weeks and especially today, that I have been getting really involved in day-to-day activities with the class. The past two Thursdays were pretty similar to any normal Thursday in this class. Like normal, the class eats breakfast and then does their daily jobs. I have gotten the opportunity to work with my host teacher and two students on watering…

how much demand you have for your production process and also the demands of the final customer. Its not to have anything more than that, or anything less. When your products are prepared and ready to go just in time, they don 't get a chance to just sit in your warehouse for no reason and take up space. Its also a benefit because that means that there is no cost to your company for holding onto…
