Third book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Today I finished my second book and it has taught me so much. To hear someone like Carter G Woodson talk about the African American society like that was just amazing. At the end of the book he talks about the words Negro and African Americans. I am going to start my reading on my third book. I don’t know what book I am reading yet because I changed my third book choice as well. My grandfather was right about The Mis-education Of The Negro. He said that I had to read that book. He also said that the book is something special and that it would change my opinions on the world back then. I recommend that book to anyone who wants to know about what African Americans went through back then. If I compare the two worlds, before the 1970s and now, I can see tons of differences. We have an African American president now and we have made so many improvements. I will ask my grandfather for more books that he has in mind and I will make changes to my contract with the next two books that I plan on reading.

Almost done

I am almost finished with my second book. Throughout the book so far, Carter Woodson has talked about his experiences in segregated society. They include discrimination in the work place and education opportunities. The book helps me to understand how people of the African American race were treated in the late 1800s and the early 1900s. African Americans have been discriminated against for a long time. It’s a very interesting topic because many people have different opinions on it. This book gives more detail on how they were treated and what jobs they were expected to do. This book was published before blacks achieved some equality. I would love to see the opinions of Carter Woodson on the world now. I can’t wait to move on to my third book. As I have read more and more, I have been able to read a bit faster. So this class has helped me. This class has been good for me. I understand that books can be as good as movies. Even better at times!!!!!
