STOP THE VIOLENCE

I think that the type of violence that affects young teenage women is threatning abuse. I think that it affects them the most because I have seen many girls in abusive relationships that they want to get out of, but are scared because their partner threatends them by saying that if they leave they are going to take the kids from them,they're going to commit suicide,hurt them or someone they love,etc... I have once been in a type of threatning relationship before. I didin't want to be with him anymore and broke up with him several times but every time I'd try to break up with him he'd get really drunk and start to do crazy things like crash his car on purpose,wouldn't go to work, tried to hurt himself, etc... People use to say it was my fault and that I should be with him or else he was gonna end up killing himself. At first I started to believe it. So I kept getting back together with him. Afterwards I started thinking that he was ruinning my life and I shouldn't be with him if I don't like him, so I decided to leave him for sure. At first he did do all his disaster and all, but then I talked to him in a mature and understanding way, I stayed away from him, and did not listen to annyone. As time passed he got over me. The advice that I would give other girls in similar situation is to get help, talk to someone and leave him before you or someone you love ends up getting hurt. I would also say to not believe his threats because the law is on your side.

  1. I think Thomas Jefferson did not keep his promise towards the Cherokees because the U.S. government and the whites wanted the Cherokees rich land, their wood, oil, and crpos.

  2. Some examples of how the Chrokees became acculturated was: that they adapted their government to the U.S. model of government, build schools, and some became Christians.

  3. The indians had lost ninety million acres of reservation land. The Dawes severalty stated stated that, after each Indian had received their allotment, it was declared "surplus land" and the land that the Indiand did no use was sold to non-Indians. The land that was sold to them was poor and not good for farming.

  4. Cheif Joseph is the leader of The Nez Perce, he was furious because they agreed to move to a reservation in 1855,but were later told to leave when gold was discovered there. "Joseph outsmarted the government soldiers over and over again with his superior military tactics".Captain Jack engaged in the U.S. Army because they were forced onto a reservation in Oregon to live with old tribal enemies who continued to torment them.

  5. The constitution said that Native Americans land will be respected, but those rights were not respected because Andrew Jackson as the president over ruled that law because he and the whites wanted their land and researches like oil,wood, and the crops so he took it from them.

  6. If I were an Indian ordered to move west, I would fight for my rights. I would go to the court and say that "we are being kicked out of our property", and in the constitution it said that "land will not be taken from Indians without their consent,"because I wouldn't want my family to have to go through all that suffering.

obamas speech

A line I remember and resonated with me was that he said that you wont succeed at everything you do the first time. I think I resonated with that line because sometimes I dont succeed the first time I do something and then I give up.

Three words I remember Obama said were:commit,try,sucess

Obama has inspied me to try my best and to not give up, to be someone in life, and education is the only way to success.

Obama was tring to say that no one knows what yourfuture is and no one can tell you what to do, only you can do what you want to do.

I want a career that helps poor people and I think I can contribute to my country by helping feed hungry people. Im not only going to get payed but Im doing it by helping others.
