Joesph Goodman

My name is Joesph Goodman and I'm a slave for Henry Larson. I've been working for about 4 years for this guy. He's a real piece of work. I've had about 3 tries to escape but I've been whipped until I was bleeding on my back so you can say I'M NEVER EVER GOING TO GET OUT OF HERE! WHEN WILL THE BLACKS FINALLY BE FREE?  So this is where I'm going to be for the rest of my life.

Civil War Book

The book is about the life for the soldiers in the Civil War. How the soldiers live in the war. My characters want to win the war. They are going to work their hardest. I'm going to write the story about the soldiers in the war of Fort Sumtter

What motivates people to act?

People act by how they look, how many friends they have, how rich they are. Some people act like there better than others, they try to be funny, try to get attention, and they make fun of kids whose friends with someone that person who is making fun of them doesn't like. Those kinds of people are just losers, and I know two groups of three kids who do just that. Most people are selfish and self-centered since they only care about themselves and not the person next to them! The time I really wanted something was when I was about 11 and I really wanted Guitar Hero for the PS2. I told my parents that I would barely play it even though I loved it so much and was on it all the time. I also told my parents that it'd help for better hand-eye coordination.

Justifed to Fight

Yes there are, for example the war in Afghanistan and Iraq. We are fighting for our freedom against terrorists who want to kill us. You can fight for something without being violent, you can come to an agreement over something that two people want and their arguing/fighting back and forth about who gets it. When you fight peacefully you don't use guns, kill, hurt, or injury people.

Free Will

Yes, because we can do whatever we want, as long as its not illegal.

3 Changes in Middle School

1) We get to eat whatever lunches we want, and what we want...the school has to bring it.
2) We can say whatever we want without getting in trouble.
3) We get extra resource time.

 Yes we will still be prepared for highschool because this isn't going to effect our learning.

Reflection

I thought it was easy. We talked loud and had a lot of info, facts, and opinions. We opened the class for discussion. Nothing really. I liked it...I hope we do it again with different topics for everyone. Nothing really. Talking in front of the class.

Can Human Beings Ever Truly Be Equal? What Would the World Be Like If We Were?

It'd be unfair. People wouldn't have any reason to fall in love since everyone is equal and the same. No one would ever be better than someone else. Everyone was made by God differently, and people shouldn't be judged on how they look.

If You Could Have A SuperHuman Power, Which Would You Choose and Why?

I would want to fly, because I could get to places faster.
