#RashadGotCaught?
On Friday, when Rashad got to the convenient store, he grabbed a bag of chips and headed to the back where the drinks were. He noticed an older white lady in the back also looking for a drink, and a police officer on duty. When he was picking up a drink, the lady accidentally bumped into him, and the drink and chips went flying. The officer heard the noise and ran back there. He immediately grabbed Rashad and started yelling in his face asking if he was stealing and trying to assault the lady. He got pushed out of the store and shoved onto the ground. He then blacked out.

Today, Quinn decided to wear a shirt that said, "I'm Marching," on the front, and on the back,"Are You?" He got many stares, some good and some bad. He was also told at basketball practice that if they skipped practice the next day for the march, they would be kicked off of the team.

Friday comes and goes, and Quinn is debating whether or not to go to the march. He decides that since he's already on the Galluzzo's bad side, and that his crush was going, he went to the march, not caring what they thought.

The ending of All American boy was very interesting. I was sort of disappointed but at the same time it was good.

# data[].attributes.body
The ending of All American Boys was not what I expected it to be, however, although I was not disappointed, it was a decent ending. Overall, I really liked how the novel--specifically the ending reflected reality. This novel actually reminded me of the book called "A Long Walk To Water," by Linda Sue Park or even "Wonder," R.J. Palacio.

The ending of All American Boys is something that I kind of expected. When it did end, I was a little disappointed, considering that there was no follow up, like another smaller chapter with both of the boys talking or something at school the next day. Or maybe seeing Quinn getting kicked off the team for not going to practice and going to the rally instead.
