This Poem is about the oil Spill that messing up the land and the earth. This thing makes a lot of people asking is it the end of the world? But is GOD the one that created nature? Because if it created by GOD, it is not our responsibility to control. People nowadays think they can do anything they want to do and don't even think about the end results. We are in a deep hole and we to find a way out.

This poem is about Racism. Why people in this country so worry about skin color? This thing has to stop because we are all people whether you white or black? And some people so stupid they changed their skin color. You have to accept what GOD gave you. I'm black and I’m proud to be black. This is something that will probably always go on but we need to be happy about our skin color.

Assignment II

By doing those surveys that were posted in the second assignment I discover a lot about myself and what I believe in. Some things you never know if you believe on them unless you ask yourself the question and sometimes your answer can even surprise you. Those surveys make me see what I believe in and what is more important to my life. For example, I have high expectations in my values and expect others of my culture to have the same expectations as me, but I forget sometimes that everyone is different and see things differently.
I also strongly agree with the fact of interacting with other races or cultures because I believe that you could learn a lot from others and that could make you a better person. The more you accept and understand others, the more positive and successful you are. In addition, we should also accept the sexual orientation of one another because not everyone had the same sexual experiences and sometimes you do not even know the origin of the other. I understand that God did not create us to be attracted of the person of the dame sex, but we also have to understand that you cannot blame or discriminate someone because of their sexual orientation
Politic is not something that I am really into, but you still have to get some knowledge regarding what is going on in the world and by knowing the past you know what to not do in the future. So many crimes happen because of discrimination and prejudice in the past that you cannot be thinking about acting the same way and all of those misunderstanding to others are related to politics.

Reflection Paper 14

For so long, America had always had the migration problem. Some of the poor countries always had political instability and some people were not able to take the pressure. Look at Cuba for example; this country was under the control of Castro for so long nobody had the courage to protest against his political method. Since Miami was the closest state of the United States to Cuba, Miami became one of the states where you find more immigrants. The immigrants’ rather take the boat and did not even care about if they were going to be a live or not, but they were just worry about leaving their country in order to find a better opportunity and a better style of life without any type of pressure.
It was almost the same situation with the migration of Haitians in the United States. After a long time under dictatorial government, the Haitians had find a leader which they had believed in, but even this leader name Aristide could stay in the country because it was a chaos, people were killed everywhere and for no good reason. Because the population was asking so bad for the return of this leader, the Americans did not have any choose unless bring him back to the country, but that did not make anything better. Haitians still migrate to the United States because they could not find a better life.
This lecture make you see things better and make you see the reality between those poor countries and the United States that it consider a country of support for most of us.

Transsexuality is like a gender identity disorder where the person does not feel comfortable in the gender and they obsessed about having surgery in transform themselves to the opposite sex or dress like the opposite sex. For instance, some men feel the needs to wear women clothes and feel more comfortable by do all the stuff a woman will do. In addition, some will have surgeries like implanting a lot of women part to their body and take shots that will develop their women chromosomes, and even remove their penis in order to have a woman apparel genital. Also you will see women doing all they can in order to become a man, but it is more popular to see a man become a woman.
On the order hand, there is the word intersexuality which means for a woman or a man to have both sexes. To illustrate, some people were born with both sex and it will be up to them to decide which one they would have to keep and sometimes their parents are the one making the choices for that person since he or she was a little child.
Those lectures teach me a lot about gender and sexuality and I know someone can be so different from another one in their sexual life, but sometimes it is not what the person really want but instead what the person was born with.

Reflection Paper 15

Homosexuality has been around so long, I do not even know why people are still so chock about it. Everyone sexual life is develop differently from others. And the sexual life you choose depends upon of a lot experiences that occur throughout our childhood. For example, the influences of friends and by playing around with others of the same sex, some might become interested more in the person of their same sex when they become adult because they had that comfort since they were kids. Also, child abuse is another cause of someone to become homosexual. There are so many things that make someone become or choose to be homosexual. Moreover, a child could be born with a different sexual orientations and it all will depend on the development on the child chromosomes.
In addition, when it was the time of queen and kings in the world, the existence of homosexuality was always there even though they were still faking it. In the lecture, I relearned about the definition of homosexuality which is mostly divided in 2 categories. First, there is being gay which mean for a guy to be involve with another guy. Second, there is being lesbian which means for a girl to be involved with another girl. There are also other sexual orientations and one of them is being bisexual which is for someone to be involved with parties, man or woman, it is also consider as part of homosexuality.

Reflection Paper 13

By definition race is your origin and the person you are and the one that you become in the country that you were born in. Race and racism have a lot to do in common. For example, most of the time it is because of you race that people have the opportunity to judge you and hate the person you are, and that is the beginning of someone having prejudice against you. Every race is different and everyone should be able to accept the other one, but it does not seem to be the case. Mankinds always want to make things harder and complicated their life. What you it changes if you do not like the other race because when you look at it we are not that different from one another. We might not speak the same language, not be the same color or we might not even know where the other person come from, but we still have a lot in common and the way we feel might not be that different. Furthermore, we might do all surgeries, change our skin color, change our names in order to please other, but we will always be the same and only have one origin. On the other hand, we have the fact of racism which is one someone or a party have some type of prejudices and discrimination against you just because of you race or nationality. Racism is something that have being here for a long time and you can see the consequences of racism by having all those wars or so many death in the past. Now, even though racism is still around, we have a better way to manage our acts.

I do not really understand this poem, but it seems it's related to Arizona. Why they doing all to Immigrants? What they want them to forget about their culture, languages. Why they so worried about those types of things? It’s very sad to hear about those things. Those people need to start thinking about us all humans, its one life to live. I will never forget my cultures and my languages. I'm a proud Haitian, and I expect every other Immigrant to be proud where they came from.

According to the poem, it talks about the people in Haiti who are asking for help and foods. And also crying out how they don't want to die. It's been like that for a long time since Papa Doc died. But the question that I would like to ask is how can the government fix this? But I think the government is a big part of it. Instead of spending or stealing money why they don't try to create more school and jobs. And only the government can't fix Haiti, I Think we all Haitians have to put together, Act like brothers and sisters, help each other and hope for a better future.

Reflection Paper 12

According to the lectures, I could conclude that humans did not have any kind of kindness when it comes to their brothers or sisters; they only care about what will make them feel pleasure. And men kind still will have done the same cruel acts if it was not for Laws and Constitutions. All those wars and killing of people that others did not like or did not feel comfortable around, have being here for so long and had happen so many times. I still cannot stop asking myself why? Also bad things happen in the Darfur region of western Sudan. For example, they had executed so many men that were captured against their will. Women were rape and children were abuse and killed by this group named: Janjaweed. Those bandits did not have any respect for other group, any group that they felt unwanted, they eliminated them. They were also in charge of the destruction of the Religious articles.
From this lecture I learn that I should not hate other groups of people because everyone is equal no matter what cultural differences that we have. I also know that I should teach my children and my students how they should treat others because the violence is not going to change anything, it is only pain that you are causing to the other. It is not only killing somebody that is a crime, the way we treat the other person can also be a crime

Reflection Paper 11

I do not agree with the people that said that the Holocaust did not happen. Of course it did, so many of us where there when it happen and so many people talk about. How can we have all those stories of the Russians tyranny of the time, we have so many lost and so many injured and some of us are still ignoring the fact that those Russians we the devil of the time. It is still amazing to me to see how humans can mistreated others humans so much that they do not even care about the pain that they are causing to others. At the time of the Holocaust every Jewish were afraid and did not have no right. For instance, they did not have any rights to defend and protest for their rights. They were considered like slaves, could not eat like others, could not have any properties, and have to be in services of other and if you disobey you will die. In addition, sometimes the Russians decided to kill a troop of Jewish just because they gave them the order, it did not matter if you were rights or not. Life is funny and crazy sometimes, all those people had to die not only in the Holocaust in order for life to be better. But what about all those people that died a long time ago? Why did not we do something about it? I feel offended and mad when some people still denied the facts that it happens, the fact that those Russians killed those people just because they did not like their nation.
I am sad, I feel bad reading about a type of prejudices that we did not do anything about, we let all those awful things happen and it is afterwards that we see it and wanted to do something about. Even though it was the war, couldn’t we make the survival of human kind our priority?

Reflection Paper 10

As a little child, every parent teaches their children how to behave and what you should consider valuable. Every culture is different, but that does not mean that they do not have any similarities. Our parents make sure that we know what is wrong or right and has we grow we built a personality that we will carry everywhere with us. Most of the things we know we get them from our family and from the country that we grow up in. According to the lecture of beliefs, values and attitudes, I discover a lot about myself and others regarding their personality and where they come from.
Prejudice has been there for a long time, some people always taught that they were superior to others and they made and are still making other people feel so inferior. For a long time we had white people using blacks as slave, Jewish were killed, we had so many prejudicial things had happen all over the world. I do not see the point of feeling more than another person, for me all of us are equal and we should consider everyone the same, but it is not what happens. Some parents teach to their children that they should not talk to somebody that does have money; others teach their children that they should not date somebody that is black, people move from neighborhood to other just for not liking the race of their neighbor. It is so ridiculous how people react and when your parent teach you those things either you take it and you become like them, or become a better person by not taking those prejudices values from them.
Some things we are born with them, others we learn them from parents, school and church and when we get older we are the one that have to make the right choices for ourselves by choosing what is good or bad for us.

In the lecture The Rites of Passage, I learn that rituals are not only a religious or magic fact, but they are symbols in that they assert something about the state of affairs. Rites occur throughout our life. For example, every new years, every Christmas or any other holidays, people always celebrate because it is rites that we have learn since we were little. Rites it is like everything we incorporate in our growth and that we do not change no matter happen. And everything seems related to culture because rites part of our culture; it is kind of what we believe in and what we considered important. By wanted to become a teacher, I can say that I am learning a lot about who I am and what is in this and the several meanings of one word. Of course it is necessary to know those things because when you are dealing with students we have to expect any type of questions and be ready to answer.
According the author, Facing Mount Kenya was a document in the anthropological of literature, and was considered as a valuable key to the organization of the African society and their nature. It is not only a formal study of humans’ life, but a work of considerable literary merit. In Addition, the author showed how compassionate those people are and the values of their life.
From the lecture SITTING QUIETLY REVEALS CROCODILE'S TRICKS, you will discover different stories on how those African man acts with the wife and children and also it will give you an image of the actions and personality of their wives. Also you see in the story how a child act and his actions are so unconscious.

Reflection paper 9

Freud’s theory is important because of all the reality that his theory brings whether you like it or not. When you really think about what Freud said in his theory, you will realize that there is a part of reality in his thoughts. For example, the facts that sex is one of the drives that motivate all thoughts, emotions and behavior really have a true meaning. Because if it wasn’t for sex will we have been in this world? Whether it is human or animals all depend on sex. As human, we leave and our races survive among sex because procreation is cause by sex with make life possible on earth. And animal make us survive by giving us food and with the sexual activities among them, the survival of animals species will be impossible. The other drives that Freud talked about are aggression and by aggression he meant the way we protect ourselves in order to survive. For instance, we go to school to learn and get a better education and we compete with others in order to have a wonderful life and take of our family, our life is all about survival and competition. Humans like to compete and usually want to accomplish the best of our lives.
Freud’s theory also talks about Structural Model which includes id, ego, and superego. By id I meant everything that a new born does unconsciously in order to satisfy his or her needs. By ego he meant everything that you know how to control and, you starting to know what are right or what are wrong. Ego should be the strongest in anyone life. By superego he meant that the individual had knowledge over ethic and basically wants to analyze every situation.
Freud also mentions the Topographical Model, which talk about the conscious and the unconscious. The conscious is everything that you have knowledge of doing and the unconscious is everything else in you life that you have never experience or that you do not know about.

Reflection Paper 8

In the article about Beliefs, Values and Attitudes, I learned about the meanings of those words and their values in teaching. Beliefs are everything that you learned from your family and school and that you adopt into your life. For examples, beliefs are like your culture because they are something that will always be in your life. When someone is a little child, your parent teach you how to behave and the values of life, this what make you the person you want to be and the one you will be even if you choose to accept what they teach you or not. In school, they teach you learn about history, how to act with people around you and you learn about wrong and right and those are also part of your beliefs in life. Your beliefs are also part of your conviction and they make them be strong or weak, it depends on how you put them in practice. Furthermore, values are everything you believe in and everything you want to accomplish, it also has a lot to do with your goals and personality. Your values are what are the most important to you, so important that you could not leave without them. When someone said that you have values that mean you are a great person and that you know what you want in life. Finally, attitude is the way you act, your character and personality. Your attitude is yourself, your image and makes people see who you are and what you can and cannot do. Knowing your beliefs, your values and attitudes will make you a better and successful person in life that is why to teach your students about those words will make a difference.

Reflection Paper 7

In the article, Teaching For Inclusion I learned a lot about how teachers should act in their first meeting with their students and also talk about the diversity of students. This article also tells you what should be in a teacher handbook while teaching an individual. For example, the teacher should consider all the diversity issues like ethnicity, sexual orientation, learning and physical disabilities. In addition, the teacher should take interest in the student experiences, interests, beliefs, and goals in order to make the student have a more successful life in college. Understanding your students, make your students understand you and making them feel comfortable in the classroom should be a teacher’s priority. But no matter how hard a teacher might try to make his or her students successful, you will always find students that are undecided about their choices in life and that will go to college just to learn or just to pass the time even though they do not have any objectives. The only things you could do it is always try to teach them the best of your knowledge because there will always be some students interested in what you have to teach. As a teacher you have to make sure that the classroom atmosphere is convenient for your and the students and that you set rules for the students and make sure that you are the one controlling the classroom. Because there are some students that will try to take advantages of any opportunities to get your power out of hand, if you do not keep your control and stability over the students. Teaching is not easy and control the students could be the worst that is why knowing your students, having rules and controlling the classroom is the most important in teaching students.

Arizona Goddam!

I think this poem mean that if Arizona does not be careful on what they are trying to do it might cause a serious impact on them and all over the country. I understand that they trying to find a way to figure out illegal immigrants to get them out of this country, but still I think they could come with a better plan to get that done. Because in my opinion there will be more crimes and I think it will not beneficiate the police officers. So, I think it would be better if Arizona could sit together and come with a much better plan.

Most interesting of our American Birds.

I do not really understand this poem but I think it’s about what’s happening with the oil spill not to long ago. I think it’s very sad to read about how animal are mistreating and killing their own children. And I think it’s our fault because we people when we doing things we don’t think about the outcomes. I think it’s going to take a long time to fix this, but I have no idea on how we going to fix it. In addition, all that happens because of our ignorance.

From the reading of: “Culture: What It Is,” is discover how different writers find their own meaning to culture and those meanings where according to what they observed from people and what they had knowledge of. Edward Burnett Tylor formulated a modern technical definition of culture which was the classic definition. Culture for me is what we learn, what we are born with, what our parents teach us and it is also our religious adaptation. You cannot have a specific definition for culture because culture is diversity because every nation has their own ways, adaptations and have different life values.
On the other hand, Matthew Arnold's critic Tylor view of culture of being one love of perfection and the study of perfection; and he also stated that the cultured person is one who knows the best that has been said and thought in the world. There were also other definitions of culture about people style, personality etc…
The second lecture of this week talks about the second part of transformation context. This transformation context is the one that deal with our growth and with our growth comes our culture. In addition, the way we communicate, the way we act, and the theory that we put in practice. Culture is about accepting your origin and the others too, it also believes in who you are by believing in yourself first. If you do not have a culture it is feeling like not have an identity that is how important culture is and that is what those lectures are trying to make us understand.

Reflection Paper V

I would like to be one of the leaders of the “Little Rock Nine” because I will have the opportunity to express the feeling of those African-Americans student who was not consider as equal as the others simply because they were black. When you are reading about this story that happen in 1957 in an American High School, it feels so painful to think about all those mistreatments that black had to face. Isn’t school supposed to be teaching students about equality and acceptance? Didn’t church at the time talk about love and compassion for the other? So I still cannot find the reason of white men cruelty at the time and even now not everybody can accept themselves be equal to black African-American. If I was one of those students I will have felt offended, inferior and uncomfortable. Because how could I be in an environment where I am not accepted and not treated like the other students? It is like being in prison, I will not feel the liberty of life and I will see that my life is a misery since everywhere I go they treat me different of they look at me like I am a complete stranger, I really feel the pain of those students that were considered like people that were going to court. As one of those student I will protest for my rights and make the world see that as a black person, I am not different for any other nations because only one person put us in this world and he did not say anything about anyone being superior that the other. All those racist movement at the time was so unintelligent, after all the help that white men got from black in order to gain their independence. Maybe if I were leaving at that the time I will have being one of those leaders and might have been killed already because I have protested for my rights as a human being.

I never knew anything about Lena Horne until today, but it is a wonderful pleasure for me to get to know about a beautiful and talented woman. I enjoyed reading this poem because it could relate to anybody. And for me, she wasn't only a singer, but a real good actress. She was a gifted woman and she accomplishes something with her gift. But now, she passed away, her name will always remember.

My comment about the Arizona law SB 1070.

According to this poem, I think it tells you that J. McNair is against this law, it’s a way of discrimination and this law will turn into racial profiling. In my Opinion, I do not agree with it because I think they should been passed this law. Let's think about the mothers and fathers that are illegal in this country, and some of them have kids; Therefore, the government going to have to send them people back where they came from and those kids will grow up without a father or a mother. And I think there will be more crimes because those kids will not have anyone to talk with them or control them. However, I do not think this law affects legal residents who are living in the country. If u know that you are legal, there is nothing you have to worry about when you walking in the street.

Paradigms are defined as a set of rules and examples. It is all about how we recognize and understand things. I could say paradigm it is like morality and ethics, it is a way for us humans to see things as good or bad and have the courage to analyze all situations that we confront. Is there a way to explain human behavior? Yes there is because of paradigms there are actually a way to define and describe our actions and give us some type of judgment. As an author stated that the key to faming is the imposition of information on the situation, which means that fame is all the information that we got from an actions. It is the same thing I am doing right now, from all those readings I get information which I learn from them and explaining them in this paper that I am writing.
Paradigm shift which is also call revolution of science is a term that was created by Thomas Kuhn in a book that he wrote in 1962. That book was subject to describe the theory of science and it is also in contrast to his idea of normal science. According to the author, science is described as a series of peaceful interludes punctuated by intellectual violent revolutions. All those things that we discover and created in this world, we are the one that create the evolution of the word and that is what paradigm is about. It is also our perception of things, our inventions and our cultures. Culture, religion, gender, and occupation, all of them of are object of our paradigm, but on the other hand paradigms shift only deals with the scientific part which means invention of electronics or any kinds of inventions that men kind could create.
God is also part of our paradigm because we learned from time to time how to control our actions, which means what is good or not and what we should do or not. God is also part of our way of behaving.

Reflection Paper II

According to the transformation lecture, I learned and also know that transformation is everything that happens in our every day life. By the previous sentence I mean that transformation is our experiences in life, the things we learn and practice. For example, when you are a little child, your parent teach you a lot of things to put in practice like learning how to write, to eat, to talk and as you grow older those things become familiar. Even though we get older, we are still learning about ourselves and about life which make our personality. Transformation is about everything, we transform physically and mentally.
It is not only human that transform animals also have their way of growing. For instance, we could have an egg right now and a couple a months later it becomes a fly which means everything can transform from one thing to another, like the weather, plans etc… That is why Webster stated that transformation is an act, process, or instance of change in structure, appearance, or character; a conversion, revolution, makeover, alteration, or renovation. By renovation he meant the fact of repairing, alteration means making one thing to something different, makeover means improving ones appearance, revolution which is the change of a situation, and recovery which means recap from something, it could be change of religion or political view.

On the other hand, there is the transformation creating contexts which talk about self-concept, self-confidence and self-esteem. Those context are things that create our personality, it is like its part of us. To illustrate, self-concept means the way we see thing and analyze them. Self-confidence means the confidence that we have in ourselves and it make us realize our goals most of the times and self-esteem have to deal with our emotions rather we believe on them or not.

Reflection Paper I

By reading the prehistoric of human use of fire, I find out a lot of information on how fire was created and how it what used to help human survive. According to researches, fire was used by Homo Erectus about 1.5 millions years and it is unbelievable to see how useful fire was and still is. For example, they used fire in painting, cooking, and also used as some sort of light.
Secondly, I learn about the invention of wheel. Find ways of transportation is something that human created and made in practice long time before the existence of Christ. And by reading those lines I realize how important the invention of wheel is to us, since the technology is increasing every day.
Researches show that language existed long time before writing, but we cannot separate languages from writing because without language we will not have the creation of writing. Writing is not only about what we type or print, but it is about all the images, the sign and the objects that make wring possible. By reading the history of writing, I discover that before the words that we type today were created, signs were the only type of writing that existed. For instance, if we go back to Egypt we will see all the picture writing input in the walls in order for human to express themselves and make other sees their values and objectives.
Finally, I gained a lot of knowledge from those readings because even though I learned about the history of the word and everything that come with it when I was younger, by reading and writing about it make me more captivate about history. And as a pre-teaching intern, I have to know the human history because I will have top teach my student about them. To illustrate, if I have a student that come to me and ask me any kind of questions, I will know that I have the answer for it. In addition it is not only about teaching your student, but teaching yourself before everything else and I feel so comfortable knowing that I learned from those lectures.

MY BIBLIOGRAPHY

Hello Professor Mcnair, my name is Jacques Abraham, I am 21 years old and I was born in Haiti on January 17^th, 1989. I have two sisters and two brothers and I love being the last child of the family. I came to this country in 2003, and did the rest of my high school at the North Miami Senior High which I got my High School Diploma from in 2007. After graduation I decided to attend Miami Dade College where I am majoring in Elementary Teaching. Since I was a little kid, I always loved doing two things, which are: “Playing basketball and also teaching kids around me by telling them what is good or bad”; However, when I was in High School I wanted to become a professional player. I cannot say that I was the best but I was one of the best. To illustrate, I was a point Guard, a team player and was really passionate about playing for the team. After i graduated I was supposed to go to Gainesville for a try out but my dad didn't want to let me go and at that time I was under his authority so I didn't have any other choices. Therefore, I decided to pursue with a degree in Education. Sometimes, people asked me: “Why do you want to teach?” Others say that this major do not pay or it is boring and I always have one answer for them: “I am not doing it for the money; I am doing it because I love it.” People might think that education is easy, but it is not, especially if you do not like kids. I know there are a lot of bad teachers out there, but there are also bad police officers and lawyers etc… In life there will always have good and bad in anything you choose to do, but I will do the best I can to be in the good category. I am almost done with my Associate in Arts, I will graduate next year and will beginning my Bachelor degree Miami Dade, but I would love to go to a bigger university so I could have an opportunity to try out for basketball. My long term goal is to open a school in my country for the kids because I think that one way for the country to go forward. I have been in the United States for almost seven years, and I done a lot of good things during those years. Now, I am working on getting my Mom to the country and I will continue working hard on my accomplishing. My favorite show is Meet the Browns and I love watching all kind of sports.
