Amazed

This process of blogging is really an amazing opportunity for us. Getting the chance to see what Kofi, Nelson, Sojourner, MLK Jr., Dred Scott, and everyone else wrote was incredible.

I have two questions for today:

1. The African National Congress formed out of hopes to stop apartheid. After 20 years, memebers were frustrated. Why? (1 paragraph)


2. Nelson Mandela is a powerful leader who inspired black South Africans to fight against injustice and apartheid. If you had a chance to meet him, what would you say to him? (2 paragraphs)

First questions...

So, I guess I have a couple of questions that I want to ask you today.
Remember, your grade will be based on how thoughtful you are about your answers.

1. As we have been reading about apartheid in South Africa, what are you thoughts on Nelson Mandela? (1 paragraph).


2. What does this quote mean to you?
There is no easy walk to freedom anywhere, and many of us will have to pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again before we reach the mountaintops of our desires.....

Welcome!!
