Immigrants

Immigrants come to this country to get good jobs,so their child could study, and specially to progress and get freedom. People in this country have freedom that is why people that live in countries that they can't be free come to this country. Do you feel free in this country?I do. I am sharing this whit so you can know that treating people badly because of were they come from things aren't going to change.

In this country many people are free, but not every body. For Example: There is people in this country being treated differently because of their skin color or because they didn't born here. Like black people,Mexicans, and any people that didn't born in the U.S.A. Like in the first video we saw with Mrs. Davis that a woman that when to live with her cousin because she was being abused by his boyfriend and her cousin was selling drugs but she didn't toad she was getting in trouble.So then she when to jail. First, they gave her 12 years. When there was 1 year left they add 15 years to her case just because she was black.A good thing of being in this country is that you could study with out trouble. 

Like one day I was in Clement Park and there was a mexican women who was attending a white baby and the white baby's mom came out of no wear and start saying mean things to the mexican women like "HOO YOU BLACK BEACH YOU WILL NEVER STOP BEING MEXICAN,LIKE YOUR MEXICANS FRIEND HAVE BEING CLOSE TO MY CHILDREN AND I DON'T WANT THEM TO ACT MEXICANS LIKE YAA YOU ARE FIER" then the black women said "YO WHY I AM FIERD?" and the other one said "YOU ARE FIERD BECAUSE YOU ARE MEXICAN AND I DON'T LIKE MEXICANS AND I AM NOT PAYING YOU FOR THE WEEK BECAUSE YOU ILEGAL."

A good thing about being in this country is that you get healthcare and education.I like this country. Another good thing about being in this country is that you could get home when you need to and sometimes the government gives you work,this benefits is just for some moth because you have to get a apartment and start paying but the education,healthcare and work can be as long as you need to.

In Conclusion, I share my thought so you could know that every body needs freedom and that you can be racist because we are equal and we may be tread equal. There may never be blood or heart for any body because of our skin color or because of were we come from.

Thank You for reading this.

My Vision of Freedom

5/20/09

    Veronica's Vision of Freedom

   How do you feel about freedom? I don't think so good. Why? Because there is people in the world that don't have freedom. For me not having freedom feels like if you were locked up. Every body should have freedom. Why?Because is not fear that in some places only the people that have money are free.I am writing this vision so some people can understand that every body should be free.

One of the most important rights that every body should have is healthcare. Why? It is the most important right because with out healthcare every body will get sick or die like in Gopi's story that she got sick of polio for not having healthcare. Another important right is the education. Why? It is important because all the children have to prepared for the future and if they are not prepared they will not get work or nothing. But some of the children specially girls cant like in Maya's story that she couldn't finish school because she was a girl.My vision of freedom will never stop and will never end.

I also write this vision of freedom to let every body know that freedom is important. Another right that I believe some one need to be free is a home and some love. Why? People needs this because if you live in the street what kind of freedom is it.It will be like Amerigo's story that his mother didn't want him and she trow him to the street and he got very sick for living in the streets and working in the garbage. You also need love because if you don't have love your life will be sad and angry.I believe does are the most important things that you need to be free.
