over the past 15 weeks I have learned so many new skills that making writing more fun and easy. I learned how to make it so you can set up your essay before you even write it so when you come to write it you don't have to flip threw so many pages and tabs you have it all in front of you. I learned that writing takes your own voice but also having other ideas and words from other people to back it up. I loved using google scholar I know that's something that I am going to continue using through all of my college years. this class made me excited to get essays and made me excited to write them I don't procrastinate as much when it comes to essays now. in high school I wish I would of learned these skills because writing would of been so much easier and so much more fun. thank you for teaching me and helping me through all of this class. and thank you for always answering my texts when it was late at night or even early in the morning to help me when I messed up. youve been hands down the best English teacher I've had and thank you for giving me all the resources to be successful in this class, in college, and life. these skills will carry over even when I'm outside of college! all together my favorite unit was this is America, I really learned how to use my own voice in an essay and still have ideas from others to back up what I needed. I loved that this is america was our first unit it made the rest of the units easier.

growing up I always read wonder women comics she's been one of the main female super heroines. other then super women its interesting to say that wonder women really showed that women can be superheros its not just a mans job. another thing that makes her super cool is all her powers she doesn't just have a few powers like a lot of other superheros she has multiple things like flying, super strength, enhanced senses, durability,superspeed, and some other things.

substance: we see wonder women kneeling down wearing her outfit that's gold blue and red holding a sword and a shield.
scaffold: the image is a photograph which is obviously edited threw photoshop and Lightroom maybe another photo editor
story: she looks tired and it seems as if she's about to fight or did fight the sheild and sword show she can fight her own fight and doesn't need help
so what: she shows that women are strong and can fight for themselves

now I still have the same ideas I did when it comes to art but now I have more artist to look at and base my art around. Aaron Phillips was a whole new idea to me I've never seen some who was so confident in their skin art for people like her help her inspire others. and it makes her confidence better most of the artist we learned about I already had past knowledge on but in general art is whatever the viewer wants it to be. art is mad to express some type of feeling idea or purpose.

I wonder how she coped with dealing with the bad backlash I know she heard. but over all she looks like any teenager, her sense of style is great and I love how kinda plain the photo is overall her jacket is what really catches your eye. the white background gives her complexion a boost. the patches on her jacket there's one that stands out the most which is the handle with care one. it could have a deeper meaning to it.

in the statue it really has so much detail. his paintings have so much detail also but in this statue it really shows you can see the nike symbol on his shoes, all the little braids in his hair, etc. I love this is really does relate to his art rumors of war paintings. the whole idea of this is great to incorporate history and modern day things into one piece it catches everyones attention. he said "New York and Times Square in particular sit at the crossroads of human movement on a global scale" he put it there so everyone could see it not only Americans but tourist from other countries can see it here. seeing this sculpture makes you want to stare and see every detail you would never expect to see a person dressed in urban streetwear on a horse posed like that. seeing the original historic piece compared to this one the horse looks exactly the same you can really see how he referenced the original statue. this statue is kind of in a way mocking confederacey.

I really liked what we read, they were real world things about real world people. a lot of stuff was such an eye opener to the real issues that we have going on. I really like the reflections and how we can have our opinion in what we write. doing the homeworks (reflections, reading logs, etc) those made writing the whole essay so much better and easier I enjoyed writeing the essay. being taught this was makings doing the essays enjoyable and easy.

1. buses in the charm city  circulator the busses are free but in the predominantly black neighborhoods you have to pay
2. in predominantly black neighborhood more people are arrested then in the white neighbor hoods
3. public schools are well supported by bcps in predominantly white neighborhoods but in predominantly  black neighborhoods schools are frequently closed down and have low amounts off resources
its crazy to me that even if once African American was spotted in a white neighbor hood that everyone would freakout and move.
in the videos they kinda explained the American dream is unobtainable, and in the reading Coates talks about how the dream rests on our backs

a lot of people say immigrants are criminals and that they steal our jobs. first of all they don't steal jobs they work just as hard as we do. and if you have to worry about someone "stealing your job" was it really your job in the first place. immigrants aren't criminals they didn't bring crime into America they don't bring drugs into America without them those things would still be here. most of the crime done here is from Americans who were born here. and most of the drugs sold here are from Americans who were born here. a lot of people say immigrants come here to join gangs. that's not true they don't just come here for that maybe some immigrants have gone down the wrong path and joined gangs but to each their own. sometimes they join because that's the only place they fit in at maybe if we weren't all so damn judging they wouldn't feel the need to find comfort in the wrong people.

art serves to express yourself or someone or something. in todays society art is sometimes frowned upon. sayings its not a school subject, or its not a real career you can pursue. when it is, its just difficult to start up. I personally use tattoos to express myself and to kinda hide the things I don't like about myself, in society tattoos can be frowned upon when all it is, is personal art on you forever. when tattoos can get covered up, tattoos can be removed... and some people get tattoos because they want it there forever, its not un professinal to have them in certain spots and just because people have tattoos doesn't make them a bad person
