A place I never wanted to leave

 A place I never wanted to leave is Milledgeville, where I was born and raised. I really wanted to move to Atlanta because it was better opportunities up here. Milledgeville didn't really have good opportunities. The one day February 12, I was outside waiting at this party with my brother and then somebody's tried to jump me, almost got shoot. My mom and auntie did not like that so, they moved me to Atlanta. I really didn't want to leave my friends and family. I like being in Atlanta its really big but still the same as Milledgeville. Today in class, we had to make a one pager about this short story "Ambush" By Tim O'Brien. When making this one pager it make me think about me going to the military because it shows me how serious the war is. The war is life or death.

It’s a deeply personal matter, especially in today’s world, where our digital presence is a significant part of our lives. As for whether privacy is a basic civil liberty , it is. Today we read a poem in class called Refugee In America by Langston Hughes. In this poem, it actually taught me a lot of things. About freedom and liberty, in the poem he talks about how he loves freedom. But when he talks about liberty he knows he's not free.

What is the most important aspect of your identity? Tell what it is and why.

Family and Community, Family ties and strong community bonds are often central to Black African American identity. History of Struggle and Resilience, The legacy of slavery, civil rights struggles, and ongoing battles against systemic racism shape much of the identity for Black African Americans. Music genres like jazz, blues, hip-hop, gospel, and other art forms, are often viewed as vital expressions of identity. Today in class we had to read a poem called I, Too by Langston Hughes. This short poem talks about Langston Hughes in a white family, and he is being treated bad, but he doesn't care. When reading this poem, it teaches me that you can do or be anything in life. After reading it, we had to create a mask about ourselves.
