The Book Night

I think that the book night was a good book

The Middle Passage

Burr, it is freezing on this revolting ship. It has been the third day; they keep us down here in this scrawny place. It feels as if it were just yesterday, playing and helping mother with the food, then they showed up. They killed and kidnapped my people, and brought us to this unholy place. Now we stay only below them. We watch them walk, talk, and laugh as they enjoyed watching me and my people suffer. Many had died, many had survived, and this is what they call, “The Middle Passage”. As each day goes by, I witness many scrutinnization. Women are being beaten and raped, children are being starved, and men make us dance just to please them. These filthy, disgusting looking men are poor excuses of men. They are very aggressive. I could not believe what they’ve done to a widowed mother, her child. They snatched the chilled from the mother’s arms and threw the child over board to feed the fish with very sharp teeth and big fins. Next, they took the mother and boated her beautiful face until it looked like a chubby, curved, bloody, ugly ball. After seeing that situation, I knew this was going to be a very, long jittery journey. As I sleep, I hear deafening noises. I wake up to look to see where the noise was coming from. As I looked up, I see sparks coming out of these medal objects. The sparks were so loud, I couldn’t here people that were near me scream. When the noise ends, I hear woman cry for freedom, children were cooing as they were chained to the wall. I tried to yell out to god to ask, “ Why, what have I done to deserve this? Why must my people and I suffer so much tragedy?” but all that came out was a faint, soft, whisper. Soon, I smell a stench so bad, my nose began to burn. They never let us go to the bathroom; they make us go on our selves, or on each other. I look to see what they smell is, as I walked around, I noticed that a little girl was in a corner, urinating on her self. In the other, a mother is also urinating but not on her self, on a person! She looks as it were nothing. As I got closer to the wall, the smell gets even worse. The smell was so bad that I began to taste the bitter, nasty smell on my tongue. I walked closer, and closer. I found out where the smell was coming from. It came from a pile of fences and urban. I began to vomit. I fainted and fell a sleep as we kept getting rocked back and forth on the colossal. Finally, the ship began to slow its speed down. The men bring us to the deck of the ship. They lined us up into rows of ten. Then a man with a white coat walked up top me. He looked at my teeth and my body parts. Just wanted to die but I closed my eyes and held back the tears. I felt so ashamed and embarrassed. Finally it was over. They took us to this small ban like building. There was a crowd of me, but not only men, woman also. A man pushed me on a stage. Next a man who talked very fast held me by the arm, and took my clothes off. I shoved him away from me, and tried to run, but two other men grabbed me by the arms and brought me back to him. I noticed a woman walk over. She was wearing a dress so beautiful, it made flowers look better than doves. She pointed at me, and then gave the man some green papers. She took me to a car, she told me to lie down and fall asleep as she gave a blanket to cover my body. When I woke up, I was at a place where plants were growing and little buildings were everywhere. A few months later, the woman in the pretty dress gave me a bag of food, clothes, water, and money. She then told me to run up north. It was a long journey. I finally made it though. It was long but it was worth it. I was so exuberant, that I jumped up and down with joy. I began to sing, “Yes I am free, I went through many situations, but that is what god wanted it to be, Yes I am finally free!” That was what the middle passage of my teenage life.

This is a story I made in Mr. Eberts blog site
Directions: Write a 2 paragraph "story" based on 1 of the following words.

a) Blue

b) Fifteen

c) Protest

Blue is my one of my favorite color. Blue is one of my favorite colors because blue can go with a lot of other color that I wear. Blue is a color that Sharon, Deidre, and I was every day to school. Blue is the color of my school shirt. Blue is a color of boastfulness. I say that the color blue is boastfulness because the sky is light blue but it s still blue and the sky is peaceful. Ms.Coleman ha so blue today.
This is one of the blogs that Mr.Ebert asked us to do in his class ....
This is one of my best friends post on Mr. Ebert's blog site
1) Did you enjoy the play Fences, by August Wilson? Explain your answer.

2) What was the main idea of the play? Explain your answer.

3) Who was your favorite character in the play? Explain your answer



Yes! I enjoyed the play Fences, which was written by August Wilson because I do admit that I did have second thought about the play. I first thought that the play was going to be uninteresting because when we first arrived, I didn’t really like watching it on the TV because it was boring, but when we went in the audience, I began to really enjoy the performance.
I believe that the main idea would be that you have to love your family no matter what because through out the whole play, Troy’s family was going through a lot. For example: Cory wanted to join the football team, but his father wouldn’t let him, but they still stuck together like family should, also, when ever Troy felt guilty for using the money from his brother. The reason why I say this is because Troy’s brother, Gabriel (Gabe), he was in the army, he had gotten his head hurt so he was a little slow, so the army gave him some money.
My favorite character would be perhaps Gabriel because even though he was a little slow minded, he did do what was right and he had a good personality and he would brighten up the mood in people when they were sad or mad. I also like Cory because his character is kind of like me because Cory, he follows his dream no matter what and he argued with his father all the time, and I actually follow my dreams, and sometimes I would do anything that it took in order to get it, and my father and I, we argue sometimes. The themes that stood out in the play would be, a little of racism, family, and also love. The problem that made me think the most would be when Troy told his wife (Rose), that he was seeing an other woman named Alberta, and that he was going to have a baby with her because I know a lot of people who have been through that and some how, I felt Rose’s hurt and sadness.

your answer.

2) What was the main idea of the play? Explain your answer.

3) Who was your favorite character in the play? Explain your answer.


I did enjoy the play fences even though we missed the first scene in the play .I like the play because nit is very funny and it was very interesting when Troy told Rose that he was having a BABY by another woman named ALBERTA and I do not like the way that Troy told Rose that he was having another BABY by another woman.

The theme that stood out to me is love because every one love each other till we got toward the end of the play when Troy told Rose that he was having a baby by Alberta and then rose got hurt because her and troy have been MARRIED for at least 18 years and now he chooses to hurt her and she things that he made a bad choice to cheat on her because they have been together for a long time. The problem in the play that had me thinking about it was when Troy told Rose that he was having a child it had me thinking because it was wrong that he was going out with another woman when he was MARRIED.

My Favorite characters are Raynell & Cory because he sticks up for him self even if it was his own father and he was threatening his father with his father’s own bat. Also the are my favorite characters in the play because they are brother and sister in the play and they had just met at the end of the show .I think that it was cool that Raynell and Cory the end of the show because if they did not meet then she would have never met her brother and if she ever asks about her brother Rose will jot k now what to say.
