poem

I love hot pink and they think I am girlie,
I love Disney and friends think I am a little girl.

I love red velvet and they think i don't got taste,

But no mater what they they say.I am going to like what I like and walk through them like if theirs a wall between me and them.

PWA Essay

            Would you like to go back to the future to see how your ancestors life use to be like compered to your life now? KINDRED the novel we read was of a woman named Dana the main character,who transfers back trough time to save a boy named Rufus when he would be in danger.During this time period many slaves' didn't have rights and wouldn't face their owners,so they would do every thing the owner would tell them to do.Rufus dad,named Tom Weylin who was a slave owner who had two personalty a great one as well as cruel one.Trough out the novel slaves' tried to show resistance by not hitting the slave owners'.On the other hand Tom Weylin tried to oppressed slavery by violating slaves' as well as mistreated them.Dana tried to liberate slaves' from slavery even though she had many obstacles to face.One obstacles Dana had to face was Tom Weylin as well as Rufus.Octavia Butler main massage was ,Follow your own path and don't conform to other people prescriptions.

            Octavia Butler wrote about how Rufus conforming to his father prescription caused him to be a cruel person.One quote I would use to back up my thesis was when,"He pushed me back on the pallet,and for a few moments,we lay there still.What was he waiting for?What was I waiting for?He lay with his head on my shoulder,he left arm around me,his right hand was still holding my hand,and slowly,I realized how easy it would be for me to continued to be still and forgive him even this."From page 259 on The Rope.This quote is important because is proving how Rufus is trying to abuse Dana,After Alice was found dead.Even tough Rufus new Dana and help him ,he still tried to abuse her as well as other female slaves'.Similarly,Tom had abuse many salves' trough live.Based on this you understand how he was conforming to some presciptions made by his father.

           Based on the novel KINDRED Rufus dad Tom Weylin would violate slaves' in front of Rufus.This would show Rufus to follow the same path as his father.A quote to support this was when,"Weylin ordered the man striped naked and tried to trunk of a dead tree." "Weylin stood whirling his whip and biting his lip." "Weylin had used on Rufus." This quote provides many evidence on what Weylin would do to slaves' but to his son as well.Tom Weylin caused Rufus to turn as violent as him through acting violent to and in front of Rufus.Rufus then beat Dana because she responded back to Rufus in a conversation.This shows what happen when you pay attention to prescriptions.

         Octavia Butler wrote on the novel KINDRED who Rufus tried to kill people as his dad,because they thought they they had the right to do this because they where slaves' owners.A quote from the novel that proves this point was when,"I wish I had shot him."as well as ,"If you had,you'd be dead yourself by now." I read this on page 256 in The Rope.This quote said by Rufus explains how he tried to kill Kevin as well as other people.On the other hand Tom Weylin would kill slaves' for different reasons.even though Rufus hadn't kill people he thought of doing it.However,the slave owners is not a excuse for killing people.I wonder if Tom Weylin would regret of the murder he committed?

                  In conclusion,going back to the past to visit your ancestors life would be difficult because it depends on what time period you would go to as I had said before Octavia Butler main massage was,Follow your own path and don't conform to other prescriptions.Even if your a slave owner that is not a excuse for your dad actions.It was very difficult to be a slave back in time.Living in the past as a slave or a slave owner cause many problems.As a slave owner you had to face many obstacles as well as the slaves'.Even if you thought every thing was going to turn out good then it may be the opposite.If I were Dana in this situation I would try to escape,even though you had to face obstacles if they would capture you.Trough the novel Dana tried to handle all the pain that Tom Weylin and Rufus as well as his mother would do to her.Learn from yesterday,live for tomorrow.The important things is not to stop questioning,by Alber Einstein.

Great Great Grandmother

I never got to meet you but i heard many nice things. My sister would tell me you made the best Mole. You would make it sweet ,but a little spice.Every time you would wake up you would make your self dark coffee with sweet bread.You loved wearing pink dresses. She had a pink dress with flowers she love the most. She would greet you with a big hug and a kiss. If i could go back in time i would love to see her in her pink dress and eat her mole. I would love for her to tell me what you loved in life.
