this picture shows how the people that ran the ships would just throw the extra people off to make more room. the sad thing is that its hard to believe that they overpacked it so much that they woud actually throw people off. they didnt care one bit for the slaves. they also didnt even look at them as real human beings. its sickening to think how people could even believe that.

Having My Say

i dont know a whole lot about obama and i dont really care for him, but its rediculous thatthis far into his term people want to be questioning his citizenship. im sure that if there was a real issue, it would have been noticed by now. also if the state of Hawaii says that he was born there and have first hand witnesses, then that is good enough for me to believe. we just need to continue on and get back to the real things that need to be discussed

Whitman

"...and wood-berries, and the commonest weeds by the road,..."

i can relate to this part because ever since i can remember, i have been going up to a cabin in michigan with my cousins and aunts and uncles. when we are there we go by the road and pick for berries. sometimes its annoying because of all the weeds.

emily dickinson

The bee is not afraid of me,

I know the butterfly;

The pretty people in the woods

Receive me cordially.



The brooks laugh louder when I come,

The breezes madder play.

Wherefore, mine eyes, thy silver mists?

Wherefore, O summer's day?

... i dont know for sure what emily dickinson is trying to say in this poem, but i think that she is trying to say that nature does its own thing and it will go on without us.

Antitranscendentalist

i prefer anti-transcendentalist writing because it puts everything into an actual perspective. people, and everything else for that matter, are not always good. nothing is perfect in this world and bad things do happen. thats why i like anti-trans better than trans
