I was born on December 26, 1970. That’s right, I was a 70’s baby and being a Seventies baby means that I was there when Black folk started benefiting from Civil Rights. My mother was working for the state of Michigan as a secretary and my father was working at Chrysler before he got fired for selling weed and then at Ford. We lived in an apartment on Collingwood and then an upstairs flat on Clairmount before we moved to the northwest side in 1976. Growing up in the Seventies, we were poor. Yes, I had two working parents but it was tough making ends meet. That said, we survived because we made do with what we had. Fast forwards years later when we were living on Seven Mile, we really caught hell. Bills weren’t getting paid so things like the

Brent Mitchell learned early on the value of a good tactical flashlight. Growing up in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, hunting, fishing, and camping were some of his favorite activities.

1.) Explain why this person has had significant impact. When most people think of Howard Hughes, they probably don’t think of a billionaire Filmmaker, instead the thing that comes to mind is most likely the Hughes H-4 Hercules, better known as the Spruce Goose.

This aircraft, although one of Hughes most impressive, was merely one of countless aviation records he set.

With his extraordinary flight across the Atlantic completed, Charles Lindbergh became a symbol for the old formal world to connect with the new and distinct emerging modern world. Described as a reserved man, but who would be charming when he needed to be, was a good face for the older generation that wanted an extraordinary man that still had traditional values. Lindbergh declined the monetary awards that were offered to him, did not drink or smoke, he barely indulged in the celebrations thrown for him, and even at one Paris ball he seemed to make the younger crowd tone down their usual excitement and the display of their new and rebellious fads. The modernist also revered him as a new leader to bring the contemporary beliefs to

In the words of Shannon Alder, “If you want to discover the true character of a person, you have only to observe what they are passionate about.” Like the quote said, Smith was passionate (more like confined) with listening to young black woman and old white man. So, for Smith hearing Joni Mitchell for the first time in a college party, it automatically became hate. Mitchell was young white woman, in truth it was rare for the Smith family to hear that specific category of singers. Personally I think subconsciously Smith was a fan of Mitchell work; however, the realization of Smith appreciation of Mitchell work took time and life experience to fully understand accept it.
