“American History” Experience with Discrimination

When I got here I was called chink, or jap, just because im Filipino. That really didnt matter or I could careless whenever I hear something stupid like that. In my point of view when poeple call each other racial names. Bad carma happens, let carma do its work. Carma really is just bad luck. Sometimes whenever I’m in a conversation that includes describing a person they always use the word “the black guy” or “the white guy”. Honestly I’m always using words like that or my friends may say something similar to that. I don’t know why, it’s just people title others fro thier color. But it’s a way to describe someone you haven’t met.

"American History" Always Remember Paragraph

I was at Nye Elementry in 2001, September 11.So i was only 5 or 6. All I remember is that a plane crashed into two buildings which were called  The World Trade Center. My teacher was crying, the class was quiet. It was early in the morning at school, around 7:47 my teacher turned the T.V. on and all we saw were two planes that crashed into the Twin Towers. Then later in the day when my parents were watching the news and the whole entire building disninagrated from top to bottom. People were jumping out of the building, pedestrians were covered in ash from the impact.

JFK Assassination

Inspirational Experience Reflection

    The expierence of going on pass would be a pleasure. Because my brother is why it’s so rewarding. My siblings teach me whats important in life and thats loving your family,friends are just a virtue. Its not like you will ever see them in your life. I learned that if the person doesnt want to be apart of your life that fine. All you really need is family, my friends will be gone once I turn 18. But one person I really love but now she’s mad. I don’t know what t do about it. So now only depend on my family.

My Reaction to JFK’s Death

        The peoples response to John.F Kennedy’s death is very interesting becuase they speak about what the person feels about thier expierence. I would feel the same way as the kids/adults that effected each other during this time. If it were me writing a responce to the president I would give a verbal explanation on what the theory of John.F Kennedy’s will was and that was to make everyone in the U.S. have equal rights. So maybe when people had second hand view points of what John F.Kennedy’s program, people became proud so ever since JFK died people started to move on.

Primary and Secondary Sources Comparison

Primary and secondary sources both provide information. A primary source is a personal account of an event. It introduces the writer’s experiences, thoughts, and feelings. The participant provides eyewitness details and solid facts about what they saw. Information may be imbalanced in different viewpoints, opinions, and knowledge.  Examples are diaries, autobiographies, letters, speeches, and interviews.  A secondary source is a secondhand account where the writer did not directly participate in the activities. It is based on a variety of viewpoints, and it should contain facts.The primary sources it is based on maybe poorly selected. It can reflect the opinions of the author. Examples are encyclopedias, biographies, history books, reference books, and most magazine articles.
