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.

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.

Reflection Paper 16

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.
