Anti Rascist book

 Anti Racist book I feel good that the book is about anti racim because its good to not be Racist. There is a lot of discussion on self identity so it was interesting reading about that. This content was new because I have not read a book about identity before. This book is about your identites, your class, who you are. In the book it says you are made up of your family, your neighborhood, your school, what you see on social media, what you hear in books and what you read and listen too. I think that's cool because there's tons of things I read and listen to each day. I watch some of the same things as my sister so we see and hear the same thing.  When I read this book is anti racist i thought it was interesting. It talks about who you are. And I heard about identities. But I haven't read something like this. You get to decide which identities you will share with the world and how you’ll do so. Anti racism is actively working against racism. It is making a commitment to res...

 Who I am blog  I thought the Ted talk video was interesting. The women was talking but with street slang. But it was nice hearing what she had to say. She was saying she's articulate. Her teacher asked her a question. and she said different things. articulate means to express ones self clearly and effectively or to be well spoken. what's good with you son? Was something she said. why these books never be about my people is what she said. Meaning books are never about black people. who controls Articulation. Meaning you cant control it. The only God of language is the one recorded in Genesis. She was wearing a black t shirt. Black jacket Suite. and Black glasses. . She sounds like she's speaking and ryhming. she speaks broken English.  I think she is a good speaker. And she is talking about her race. And her thoughts and opinions. And she's just being herself which is good. you cant expect me to speak your history holy. These words are spoken by someone who is feed up. ...

Wood, Westwood, and Thompson assignment

Wood, Westwood, and Thompson Assignment  I learned that youth workers today will engage with a number of agencies.  I also learned that youth work may not mean the same idea to every volunteer, youth worker, or youth work manger.  Three New words .Educational practice  .Social practice  .Welfare Practice "Role model" is a quote i chose from the article. It"s good for children to have teachers as their role models. To show them what is right and to show them how they should act.  The First Episode of JESSIE! | S1 E1 | Full Episode ...   I chose a connection about Jessie a show on Disney channel. Jessie is a teenage nanny that works with four kids and she watches them in their penthouse. So Jessie is working with kids.

And listens to their problems. Its good to understand kids...

My Value's paper

 My Values paper The things I value are God, school, Reading the bible, praying, Family.  I value God because I believe God can help me through my problems. And I believe that God loves me and everyone. God makes this world a better place. And with God all things are possible. And he can change your life in positive healthy ways.   Reading the bible helps me grow closer to God and understand his word. It's like God's love letter to people. The bible has different stories about Jesus and his miracles and the people he's been around. It's good to be like Jesus by being kind, honest, and loving. And anyone can be like Jesus and learn about God. Even if your aren't religious. But I am Christian I go to church sometimes. And I listen to some Christian music. I listen to artist like Riley Clemmons and Francesca battistelli. Praying is what I believe helps me get the things I want and need in life. I think prayer keeps me close to God. I think praying can make my problems ...
