OUTLINE


OUTLINE

 

Dear Peter Foy,

·         Summarize his article.

o   What he is saying

o   His view point

·         What my opinion is

o   This is their web site they get to pick

o   This is their religious belief “and from prohibiting people from freely exercising their religion.” (http://billofrightsinstitute.org/resources/educator-resources/headlines/freedom-of-religion/)

o   They have to freedom to do what they want. Freedom of expression “to express one's ideas and opinions freely through speech, writing, and other forms of communion” (http://www.businessdictionary.com/definition/freedom-of-expression.html)

·         A simple solution

o   Just stop going on their Facebook page

o   If you feel you are being attacked don’t look at their page.

o   If you don’t like what they are doing on their TV show don’t watch it.

o   He is obviously looking for things that he feels attacked on.

 

p.s. I am going to say all of this very politely.

Call to action


I strongly recommend listening to some Hard Rock to see what it is like and see if you like it like I do. Hard Rock is really good style of music to listen to if you need someone to relate to. It helps you feel like you are not the only one going through problems and that some people’s problems are worse than yours. You should listen to some popular hard rock songs to understand what its like.

She tells another story of her being disciplined for talking in Spanish. She was forced to lose her accent and speak in English throughout her school years. She then starts talking about the ways that people speak Spanish like Spanglish, Tex-Mex, etc. and goes on for a long time about Spanish and the way she speaks Spanish and English. She finally gets to talking about how some people are afraid to talk in their native tongue. She talks about how she only saw a few bilingual movies and books. To finish her story she talks about how her language will live on while others die out.

Jake Baldwin


In this article Jake Baldwin is pointing out the difference between the way that the blacks and the whites used to talk. In the beginning he does talk about other languages but his main focus of the article is the difference between a black mans speech and a white mans speech. He talks about how blacks used to use Jazz as a sexual term and then the whites turned it into the Jazz Age. He gives other examples of words used by black that were changed into something totally different by the whites. He ends his article with talking about how white kids never wanted black kids in school and how a child cannot be taught by someone who despises him.
