what i can remember about the femnist lens.
I remember the feminist lens is about women rights and women stereotypes, a lot of things that have to do with "the way a woman would think". Critical race would look at racial issues

Why did i bring this book in.
Because i like the book night and im interested in the holocaust. I read this book before and it was one of the few books i've read that actually kept me interested in what i was reading and made me want to keep going to the next page to know what was going on.

Mistakes i make while writing
One mistake i make the most is using the wrong words at times, like using Effect when it should be Affect. Or using alot instead of a lot. or the wrong there their or they're. The only thing that could help me is more reading and learning more dictionary words.

Yeah there was a time when i felt like i didnt fit in. When i transferred to the hopkins school district which was predominately white from minneapolis which was mostly black. I felt like i was the only one of my kind in that elementary school. And no it never changed lol

Respond to the first chapter of book.
I think the first chapter was very interesting and makes me wanna get more involved in the book. I don't have any special questions towards the book. Just typical, like what problems will the main character goes through and how will the main character evolve throughout the book

Name and identity
I don't think it does at all, i think that it all comes down to the personality. thats like saying the big mac, nasty ass cheeseburger, that wont mean its a nasty burger. THEY ARE DELICIOUS

What is colonialism
POST- Colonialism is stories about people being colonized or how a group reacts to being colonized. Colonialism is the establishment, maintenance, acquisition and expansion of colonies in one territory by people from another territory. I dont know what a colonialist ideology is.

The phrase "double consciousness"
To me it seems like it means you have split personalities or something. Like a lot of people in your head talking to you.

7 line poem on writing
Writing. Words, sentences and bodies.
Emotions, embodied in stanzas and paragraphs
Dots on the I and crosses at the T
writing, sentences just to explain the thoughts of me
Me, writing. freedom
Freedom,
Nothing... be careful what you write

Describe a thesis statement.
It is a statement that pretty much says what the following reading would be about... I dont really remember much about it to say what it is, or to describe it to someone, i just know its something that i do when i write essays.

Reflection on project.
Im proud of everything on my project. I feel like we were dedicated to doing what we needed to do to get done and i think we were creative in the process of doing it. Ehh i really don't know what i would have done different, It was just something that we decided to do. There wasn't even a set plan we just wanted to use our minds and come up with something that we were proud of to turn in.

7 line Poem.
They carried their pride,
they carried each other,
they carried the love
from brother to brother
the things they carried were deeper than the things the held
each item holding a new story to tell
the things they carried.

If a genie granted me 3 wishes.
My first wish would be, to have the power to clone things.
My second wish would be, For my imagination to be really vivid and while i relax i can go to different places through imagination.
My third wish, would be to be able to access 100% of my brain 100% of the time

Do you trust tim o' brian ?
No, why would i trust any part of him, either way it goes its just a story. There is no way for me to prove what he is saying in the book is true or not so to be honest I REALLY DONT CARE. He could write a story inside the story of a talking pony, no one can prove it wrong or not.

What do you wish someone had told you about school when you were little ?
I wish they would have told me how easy it is. School is only hard to people that think about it being hard. If you go into it like you can handle everything thrown at you and its easy you will not feel as much pressure when it comes to the work. All you have to do is have the work done on time and the answers for everything are already given to you, you just have to apply them to the assignments.

What would it be like to live in a gingerbread house? Use sensory details.
Living in a ginger bread house. I would wake up everyday to a breakfast of plump sugar gumdrops drizzled with a little cake frosting to enhance the sweetness of the meal. With a side of steamed gummy bears topped with some of the worlds greatest cinnamon. When im done with breakfast i would shower in the worlds biggest ginger bathroom, with ginger and sugar toilet seats a cake frosted faucet and my shower floor will be framed in the finest red licorice. My house would always have a pleasant smell, the kind you get with a mixture of the spice aisle and candy aisle in a grocery store.
What's the most difficult moral dilemma you've ever faced?
I dont think i have ever been faced with a moral dilemma. Normally my decisions are made Instantly, i dont always know whats right to do or not to do. I Just act, if i feel its right then its justified in my head that its ok, and if its wrong i learn the lesson not to do it again. Sometimes after i do something i reflect on it and think of other ways that i could have acted.
1-9-12 What is Courage ? What kinds of have courage ?
Courage is when you are willing to go against all of your doubts, despite what fear you have, what people will think of you YOU do what ever it is you need to do. Courage in a person is usually doing or saying what most people wont do or say. The kind of person with courage are most leaders in society Malcolm X, Huey P Newton, Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, Tupac Shakur, these are all people who stood up for what they believed and had the COURAGE to stand and say what they wanted and were willing to take the necessary actions to get what they want/need.

No i dont think that this is telling lies. Sometimes this means using more descriptive words than normal. He has done this in many parts of the book. mostly in the parts about the war in particular and the shootings they experienced..
