Books?? Read? WHAAA!

        I can say i have a read a good variety books so far. The ones that interest me the most of course were the ones that i was forced to read for school. However there was one that i read and i enjoyed reading. That book was The autobiography of Malcolm X. (okay yes we read it in this class but I saw this book as one that many should read because it shows a side that many of us do not know)
       Malcolm X opened up a whole another side of the Civil Rights movement i was not aware of. In my history classes they always taught us about Dr. King whenever the Civil Rights movement was brought up. They might of mentioned Malcolm but it was briefly. They only stated that was on the opposite side of Dr.King preaching violence. But if you read this book you shall see a whole another side. Malcolm did not preach violence he said if  you get hit then hit back. Self defense not acts of violence to resolve things. I never learned or heard about his separation ideals. How he turned to a whole another religion.
     This book really made me think and made me aware that we only know what we are taught. And we are taught only the things that they want to teach us. Malcolm X was considered outrages for his ideals but in my view Malcolm was an intelligent and wise leader that wash harshly betrayed by the man he looked up to as his "god". You guys know about this book HOPEFULLY you guys do. But i strongly believe this a book everyone has to read
      

A great movie

            In todays modern technological world there are a variety of movies that are either good or really bad.  Todays blog is movie review. My movie will be Vantage Point
    Vantage point is one of those types of movies that requires thought into it. The basic overview of the movie is that the US president is killed while on a trip to Spain. There are 8 different stories and there stories are told. It starts from the beginning explaining the scene and what happened then one new vantage point is shown revealing major details. This movie kept me interested throughout the whole film. They reveal new info and then when you think you know the answer to who the killer was a new point changes everything. This movie is one of those government running and shooting type of movie. If you guys wanna watch a film that will keep you interested in solving who the murder is then i suggest you watch this movie. OHH did i mention it the movie takes place in Spain :)

We have the right... wait do we???

            Today under our prestigious famous respected marvelous government we have multiple rights. Heck when they started this country they made a whole list consisting of ten of them. These rights are to be brought on for everyone. And retaining or denying people of the United States from these rights is considered a crime. A crime punishable by great means.
              So they gives us rights but at the same time they restrict what we can do. Hmmm how does that work out?? They say we have freedom of speech yet they can censor some things we say? They say we have the right to bare arms, yet there are over a million of laws saying we cant? They say we cant be under unreasonable search and seizures yet the cops can do whatever they want?
             But honestly speaking we do hold more rights than any countries. Well thats what i was shown. But then again they only teach us what they want to. These blogs get more and more vague each time how about maybe you can hint to us what they are supposed to be so we can write about them please. so lets end this blog with a big oh TA DA!
