limitations

I have to over come my limitation of not being born with the strength and athleticism. I have to work much harder to gain the same outcome that people are just born with. I was born skinny and uncoordinated and no chance to do anything in anyone's eyes except my parents. I train with my father to get better and have a chance to do what i want. My dreams. I practice everyday at something whether big or small i practice and get myself better. I have come a long way but i still have very far to go.

South African Ghandi

If i was in Ghandi's shoes back on the train i would have took more drastic actions. I would have stood up acting like i was going to leave then punched both men in the face then jump of the train. As simple as that. It was an unjustifiable act that should have never been committed.

Slavery

Slavery is a terrible act that for some reason was acceptable even though our constitution says every man is equal. John Quincy Adams spoke out against this because he realized that this was very wrong. Slavery is something that is immoral and sacrilegious. People are meant to all be treated the same slavery was a cheap way to make money. The slave owners didn't care about these people they thought they were equal to dirt. This is just completely wrong. President Adams felt the same way that the north and more people do today that everyone is equal and no one deserves to be treated in that way.
