The only place to ecsape the White prejedice against blacks is to go up north. Jefferson is a black man that many of the white people take advantage of. Grant is well educated and the school we works at is very poorly funded.  They have to get hand me downs from all of the White schools and the Board of Education told him to get the kids to start working and to earn money working in the fields.  Basicly he told them to stop worring about education and start working on labor and hygine because that is all they are going to be good at. 

The movie i watched on shakespere was a theactrical performance on midsummers nights dream.  The actors did a very good job, i thought.  They did a very good job on the props, to make the affect of a forest they wheeled in many trees to make it actually look like a forest.  The plot of the play was a  little confusing, there was a fairie named puck or somthing like that and him and the king of the forest planned to make the queen fall in love with a donkey by eating some special flowers. Also there was 4 lovers in the forest and a group making a play.  Shakespere is hard to understand and hard to act out so i think this acting group did a very good job acting it out.

The war in iraq has been pointless, we have lost over 2000 men.  If we stuck to the original plan we would have only lost 50 but we kept going and trying to take over iraq.  One of the main reasons why we are losing so many men is because when we secure an area we have to leave some men behind to made sure it stays secure but since we dont have enough people to leave behind, when we attack another place the previous place becomes overrun again.  To fully achive our goal we are going to need to add to the number of soldiers that are currently fighting.  If you ask me i think that we should have just taken our soldiers out of iraq along time ago and focused on more important things such as the killings in Darfur where many more people are being killed and abused.
