A brief screening of 42


            42 is so much more than a number, it was so much more than a person too. It was Jackie Robinson who was the first African American man to break the color barrier in Major League Baseball. At the same time, it was so much more than that. Jackie was a strong-charactered individual who proved himself not with his words or by fighting back, but by his actions alone.

Favorite Movie



Well I absolutely think it is way to incredible hard to choose a favorite movie. There are so many different genres and types to even narrow it down to one. So i will write about a favorite that has always been a really inspirational story and a great movie overall. " Remember The Titans " is a great movie that discusses the hardships of segregation at a small town white domanated high school.

Joy Harjo, Option 3



  
            Joy Harjo in a nutshell derived most of her writing and artistic intelligence from her education. Education has affected Joy in a way that we hope all education affects individuals. She bounced around a few schools but settled down at the Institute of American Indian Arts. She studied a variety of subjects in the arts with Poetry being her strong point. “We began to understand that poetry did not have to be from England or of an English that was always lonesome for its homeland in Europe.” explained Joy.
