By the time that we were in middle school, the majority of my friends felt that reading was a chore and turned their noses up at any books I'd suggested to them. It's only logical to conclude that there is some grievous error that teachers are making between first grade and junior high school. That's not to say that students cannot be rescued from this loathing of books during high school, but by the manner that high school teachers present them, that isn't a likely prospect. The serious decline of youths reading literature that Francine Prose notes in her essay is a depressing, almost tragic circumstance. If reading is exercise for the brain, then are teachers doing enough in other areas of education to promote thinking?
Therefore, the nation would be easier to govern because the inhabitants, in general, aren’t expected to often commit crimes and disrupt society. However, when speaking of the future of democracy in the Caribbean, many problems developed, which disrupted the potential of a powerful political government. The Spanish-speaking countries in the Caribbean, such as Dominican Republic and Puerto-Rico, have made major improvements. With the future ahead of the Caribbean, several things need to be implemented in order for the Caribbean to successfully continue with Democracy. Democracy in the Caribbean has survived for centuries because of a few different things that should still be used in the future of the countries.
It also teaches us about the events which have occurred that have made society the way it is today. The information given in these diary entries make readers appreciate what they have now, and become aware of the changes which were made to make our lives easier. Most importantly, a major benefit from these Historical diaries, I believe is the knowledge obtained, because Knowledge Is Power. Slave diary entries are probably the most touching and intriguing historical diary entries ever written. We can learn many things from these entries like the hardships faced by African Americans, Racism, Morality and much more.
At an early age she started to realize that the English had taken over her culture. Kincaid conveys her resentment toward England in her essay through tone, anaphora, and figurative language. Tone is a writer’s or speaker’s attitude toward a subject, character, or audience. In Kincaid’s essay “On Seeing England for the First Time”, the tone is one of sarcasm. When Kincaid views the map of England presented to the class by the teacher, she makes a sarcastic comment, “at the time I saw this map - seeing England for the first time - I did not say to myself “Ah, so that’s what it looks like.” Her teacher views the map with awe.
Unit one also taught me to reevaluate how important certain priorities when it came to writing. I learned from the other unit one authors, Joseph M. Williams and James E. Porter, that when an essay is read by someone who is looking for grammatical error or plagiarism instead of content, they will often find the error and ignore the content. Although I do still know the importance of grammar and originality, this class and the grading style has let me put those constructs in the back seat until the editing process, instead of making them something I had to constantly worry about. I don’t believe that good writing revolves around grammar, but rather how well your words can convey a message to the intended audiences.
t Dear Jeff, How's it going buddy? Hope all is going well. Recently, I heard you are having a tough time in school. After reading this essay on Gatto quitting school you are not sure what to think. As well did I when I first read Gatto's piece against school.
Malcolm X showed everyone who read his book what hard work, ambition and determination could do. In my early years in school when it was black history month and we had to do project I always leaned more toward Martin Luther King rather than Malcolm X. However I’m glad that we had to read his piece by him because it not only allowed me to learn more about Malcolm , but it was also an inspiration for me. For example although to me having an education is important while reading this he showed me the significance of how blessed I am that I was able to read and go to school. Another way that Malcolm X inspired me was when he taught himself to read by just using the dictionary.
The success of the Harlem Renaissance is not only felt on the cultural context but also in the social aspect. Unlike the previous years, the Renaissance led to the civil rights movement conveying their message in amore unique and organized way. The practice of applying cultural mediums in availing their grievances was a more appealing method than the previously used political approach. The Harlem Renaissance changed entirely the dynamics of African-American arts. Most post-Harlem Renaissance writers were successful as the Renaissance led to the public being more open to African-American literature than what was previously being experienced at the beginning of the century.
