The quote in the picture was very powerful on how Willy felt in the story Death Of A Salesman.  It is sad that even though things have changed generation to generation, the American struggle has not changed today.  Willy paid the ultimate sacrifice so his family could live his American Dream by committing suicide. I do not agree with how Willy handled making the family finically secure. I understand how frustrated after working years without getting anywhere, how he could make that decision for his families benefit. This quote is a perfect reflection of who he felt about his life.

I Loved this story about our war hero. We often think of our soldiers of being invincible. In "The Things They Carried" we learn about the emotional and physical every soldier carries with them through out battling.  They are human just like everyone in the World. This was a good eye opener for society to see the realization of war.

This poem demonstrates how Langston Hughes thought American was in a rut. He wanted America to be great again. The line that say "Let It Be the Dream It Used To Be" leads me to believe he doesn't  feel like America is what it once was. This poem was part of the equality movement between the black and whites. They finally were started to come together.

This story was very sad but was uplifting at the end. It was sad in the fact both the mother and daughter were burned in a house fire. There were 2 sister and only one was burned. The sister had struggles because one was burned and the other was not. It as uplifting because at the end of the story the sisters found peace with each other.

Instead of writing or displaying a picture about the story. I chose to place a picture of a stamp that was produced to honor author Toni Cade Bambara. In my opinion, you made an impact on society when you have a  stamp in honor of you! I know it was not printed in the U.S. but in Ghana.  Know matter where a stamp is printed it is an incredible!

Fighting, being humiliated searching for what are thought gold coins, and drunkiness were few things portrayed in this picture. It really demonstrates some of the main points in the story.  Instead of the coins being money they were actually advertisements for a car. This was a story about social inequality between black and whites.

This story was a very good read. I like the how the author took the word "Echoic" and made a meaning for it in the story.  Its means you say whatever you hear in a echo. I like the way they used it in the story!

I really enjoyed the poem "Niggro" by Langston Hughes because it was in an era where blacks were just coming out of slavery. The Harlem times brought both blacks and whites together for entertainment.

I found this article on "The Yellow Wallpaper".  It was fascinating to me that this was really how they thought the "rest cure" would help  people who had nervous breakdowns and/or depression.

This story was the most exciting to read so far for me! I loved the mystery it had in it.  The women covered the evidence right under the mens noses.  It was also sad in the fact Minnie felt so a lone it drove her crazy.

I researched the author, Jamaica Kincaid after I read the story "Girl".  It was interesting to learn her stories were written about what she has gone through in her own life. She has over come may obstacles.

The below picture is what I visioned when I read girl. A mother showing her daughter the ropes so her daughter can have a better life.

"free, free, free!"
I believe this quote from Mrs. Mallard was the turning point in the story.  It changed the mood of the story from grieving a loss of husband to the selfishness of feeling joy to being newly single.  Ironically, Mr. mallard was actually a live the entire time and in the end of the story he is the one who lives the free life.
