Almost Adults Model UN
On May, 5,2011 we went to Model UN. First we went to the auditorium there they give us a opening speech were they talked about what would we being doing. We went because Ms. Trenkle had us doing a protect about differnt subject such as refuges and immigrants and HIV & AIDS. So they put them to differnt subject in differnt rooms I was in refuges and Immigrants.What I learned from the experience is that a moderated cause is different from a un Moderated cause cause one you can walk around and one you cant. What I like about the trip is that you felt professional and older. One question did not get to ask is why you can not clap after someone talks. What I would like to change is to be able to clap after someone talks.

"America I Am"
We think the title "America I Am" means that we are americans. After viewing the "America I Am" exhibit we thought that black history is very important. We thought this because if the people back in the day did not fight then we would not have the equal rights that we have now. One object that affected us was the alpha kappa alpha jacket. This jacket represents one of the things black people couldn't do because of segregation. Also black people fought for rights on the train and equal rights. One case that gave black people some rights was Plessy v. Ferguson. A quote from the case was "Seperate But Equal".
