The Miseducation of the Negro

The beginning of the book is interesting, because Woodson talks about how African Americans were taught that White Americans are superior to them in school. That is the way life was for blacks in the first half of the 1900s. Woodson talks about how if blacks acted out of character that they were put back in their place. If a black person wanted to work in New York or in a high paying job, they were told who they were and what their race was and finally that they weren’t allowed to work in that facility. He says that highly educated African Americans often become pessimistic to be a constructive force. They don’t quite know how to stick up for themselves. Woodson experienced this time after time. He is speaking from his own experiences and he is expressing them in this book. That’s why this book is interesting so far. I understand a little bit more what life was like then. As I read this book more I hope to learn more what African American life was like and realize that I’m lucky to have a great life now. Woodson says in the back that blacks need to learn to stop being dependent on other people, and learn how to be more independent with their decisions.

FINISHED MY FIRST BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have finished my first book today. I’m happy to say that I enjoyed every minute of the book. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys. It turns out that Lazlo wasn’t behind any of it. Zara was the mastermind behind everything that happened. I can’t wait to read my next book, because this book had a movie type ending. It’s like I pictured everything that happened in the book in my head. The books ending left me in suspense. The Trackers are set free to roam in the real world. Zara is behind the whole Shantorian idea. She is a criminal mastermind. All the money that was missing was put back into the bank. Lazlo is in the highly secured agent department and I hope he is set free. I hope that there is a part three to Trackers and I hope that they eventually catch Zara and ask her questions like why did she do it and what is in her mind to make her do crazy things like that. She needs to go to jail! I will move on to my next book which I have chanced from Cyborg to The Miseducation of The Negro. My grandfather said I should read itso i will give the book a chance and read that instead.

After my readings today I have found out that Shantorian never existed. It turns out that ISD leader Lazlo and accomplice Zara were distracting the Trackers. This is the climax of the story. Emily has been found, Lewis has returned and the Trackers are on their way out of the ISD. Lewis, Finn, and Emily new that Lazlo and Zara were on to something all along. The book has improved my opinion on reading. I thought that there was no such thing as reading for fun. I thought that reading was only for education purposes. I wonder what my next book will be like, because Trackers has been great so far. In the book I am reading now I can relate to what these teenagers are facing. Of course I’m not a genius, but like me they face challenges that normal teenagers face in the real world. That’s what I like about books now. I can relate with my own experiences. In the book the Trackers got tricked by Lazlo to do something wrong that they would regret. Teenagers today are pressured into doing something that they will regret later in life. So overall the book is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Reading experience

I am currently on page 83 and a member of the Trackers has disappeared. Lewis has gone. The Trackers have proposed a meeting with Shantorian. While team leader Lazlo went to get Shantorian the cameras started to malfunction. The lights turned off. Then a bright light started to come down the driveway of the Trackers hideout. Then Emily ended up missing and that’s where I finished my reading for today. Every time I stop reading the book I am left wondering what will happen next. I can’t wait to see what will happen next. With all the cameras malfunctioning in the story and the lights going out, Shantorian had a diabolical plan for the Trackers. He is a master mind and he tricked them. The book is very interesting so far. I’m anxious to see how the story plays out. I like a lot of action packed books. The kinds of books that have action in every part of the book are very interesting to me. This book is nothing short of action packed. I want to see what the other books I am reading are like. Trackers is my first book on the list and its great so I am ready to read the other books on my list.

Trackers!!

So far Trackers has been very suspenseful. There is a lot of action in the book. The story has been mostly a flashback so far. The main characters are very smart and serious about their work. I think they will have a hard time trying to catch the crook. They describe the criminal Shantorian as a mastermind. Shantorian can figure out anything you put in front of him. The original Trackers, Finn, Lewis, Emily, and Adam have joined two others Zara and Lazlo pursuit to catch Shantorian. They are trying to get inside of banks. They want to put cameras inside of the banks to figure out the password for the money flow. Without the code money can’t flow freely through the banks. While creating the plan they received mail from Shantorian. In the actual time the story is told Adam is in a high securitized place. It’s not considered a jail. He has just been taken in by federal government to be asked questions about the events and The Raymond Disk that is so special to The Trackers. The book is very interesting so far. Right now I am at the part where the bank plan is taking place. The book is awesome!!
