struggle of the first quarter

Coming to the end of the first quarter of my junior year I have realized that I cant handle things the way im used to. Everything I have all ways had good grades for the most part. This year is going to be a lot harder just from the first quarter i can all so tell im not doing as good as im used to. I have been letting myself slip in school waiting last minute to do my homework and mostly my blogs and reading. I know that has to change now because if i don't change now i will continue to wait last minute. When i first started my junior year i thought my english class would be some what like it was my sorphmore class but i was wrong. We have less time to do are work and we have more work on top of work. My main struggle in english is reading when is comes to reading i just don't have the mind set to be able to site and read three or four chapters in a row. Im good when is come to my these but test and quiz taken i all so struggle because most of the time the test or quiz is from the book we are reading.Beside just worrying about english i all so worry about my other classes i heard junior year was the most hardest and important year of your life and they were not lying.

"Waiting on the World to Change"

I think that "Waiting on the World to Change" by John Mayer is an excellent example of a song that relates to. To Kill A Mockingbird because the The lyrics, which state: "Me and all my friends We're all misunderstood They say we stand for nothing and There's no way we ever could Now we see everything that's going wrong With the world and those who lead it We just feel like we don't have the means To rise above and beat it
So we keep waiting Waiting on the world to change We keep on waiting Waiting on the world to change. These could be the thoughts and words of Atticus who was waiting for the world around him to realize that it was wrong to judge a person based on their race.

justice (emmitt till)

Back in 1955 Emmett Till a 14-year-old African American boy was brutally murdered by a white man all because he whistled at his wife. Emmett Till did not get any justice until many years later. The case of Emmett Till is just like the case in the book To Kill A Mockingbird with Tom Roberson. Tom Roberson was a simple black man who worked on a white mans land who all so would help his daughter with other things. Than one day Tom Roberson was acutes of beating and raping his daughter when it was untrue. The only thing the people in the court room could see was a black man and a white women and they figured right away who and who was not guilty. Still till this day we have problames in the court room but we make the best of things because one day the truth will come out it all ways does

Brown v. bored of eductation

Segregation was a huge issue at this period of time. African American children were denied the rights promised in the Fourteenth Amendment by a majority of public schools. Arguments about this issue came from Kansas, South Carolina, Virginia, and Delaware. Each case involved people representing African American children who were trying to obtain access to their local public schools without being denied because of their race. African American schools were suppose to equal to Caucasian school, but in reality, they were inferior. It was argued that the African American children were being sent a message that they were on a lower level than Caucasian children. The Board of Education argued that the segregation simply prepared the children for the segregation they would face in adulthood. The Supreme Court's Brown v. Board of Education decision did not abolish segregation in public areas, such as restaurants and restrooms, and they did not require desegregation of public schools by a specific time.What it did do was declare the mandatory segregation that existed in 21 states unconstitutional. It was a small step towards complete desegregation of public schools, but it was a step in the right direction. still till this day brown v,  bored of Education is till used in many court cases. it shows that still today 2010 people are still being treated unfairly
