Journalism

This short story is about the hardships of being an american journalist and stuff. i do agree that it is a very tough job and you have to have a true passion in doing it in order to be successful. But I do not agree with some things that he is saying in the essay.
One thing is how he thinks that the gu getting killed is unjust. Im not saying that should have killed him, im just saying that there are limits to some things you can do. Journalists naturally stick their heads in to things that are not any of their business just so that they can tell every one about it. Again, im not saying he should have been killed. I am just saying that he should have known that people dont play with...he still didnt deserve to die though.
So the guy talks more about how it was bad and stuff. But I just do not fully agree with him on that. For example, if you are a big time murderer. wouldnt you kill a journalist who is close to catching you and broadcasting everything? I would. He also talks about how he was in some other country nd trying to find stuff. Now common sensewould tell you that if they catch you, you are gonna die. 1. because you are in their business, and 2. because they dont really know why you are here. You could possible be a big terrorist trying to blow all types of stuff up.

Did MLK really die?

Years ago, black people werent able to have the same rights as others, but is it still like that? I say not really. Black people do have the same rights as everyone now though. Since we have a black president and all that. But there are some things less obvious. But nothing that big. So in my opinion, if MLK was still alive, he'd be happily retired.
When i say less obvious, i mean its in some peoples morals to not have their kids marry within their ethnicity. Or like a black guy not getting a job over a white guy. As far as we've come, race still does matter. If it didnt matter at all, ares wouldnt only have typically one race like they do now. So as i was saying, in society now, people still look at the color of your skin. Some parents would be furious if their daughter married a black guy. I even act differently when im around white people than around black people. Kids talk about it all the time (joking). So racism will never go away. I mean, thats probably why we have a black president. Even if we dont hate each other, there will still be that thought in your head about what they think of your race. There will also always be steriotypes that'll make people judge you. Therefore, my answer is not really.

Seattle

So this essay is basically about how the "plae faces" took over the land over the land previously owned by the native Americans. I honestly agree with everything he is saying about it. The white men did not love the land as much as the native americans. They actually thought it belonged to everyone. But they still loved the land and did not want anyone to harm it. It did give them food and stuff. So who wouldnt love something that feeds you? So in that case, i think they actually deserve the land more than the white men because they loved it and cherished it more. While the white men didnt really take much care of it at all. He also talks about how they were basically minding their business and palefaced people just show up and take it. Not cool. But for some reason they are just like ok and go over to their reservations. Thats one of the things that i do not agree with on the part of the native americans. If they had fought for what they wanted, they may have gotten more of their land. What the white men did was basically like me stealing someones phone, in front of them, and then selling it back to them. So the Native Americans should not have let them do that to them and their land. I think they should have at least went down with a bigger fight.
