Personal Narrative On Contraband

“And this woman's case stands she broke the law and she committed the worst crime which is a death” Is there any objections”

Three of my closest friends who broke the law by going over the limit of doves and I have to figure out what to do about it. I grew up with Jamie, I work with Jim and Brady they are some of the closest friends i have in the world. We hunt fish and even go to church together. They've help me through so many hard times like when my grandad passed away. I can ask them for help info or to help clean a deer. But What will i do if I can't help them cause they have broke the law.

Okay so this one time i broke the law is when my friend had bought music and gave me it.I know now that that is the wrong thing to do and that i should not have done that. That hurts all of the artists but i won't do it again.I wil always check before doing anything that smells a little fishy. “Is it too late now to say sorry”.

Though I’ve heard of the countless lashings and whippings men and women suffered in plantation slavery, I was astonished as to how many times a single person could be abused as one young man recited his numerous encounters of beatings and cruelty. Not only is such punishment used to force them to work, but these abuses are also employed for a range of offences or even in a cavalier fashion, in the hands of men and women to whom brutality seems a way of

For over 400 years, millions of Africans and their American slave descendants lived with that nightmare. Dr. Michael Gomez wrote, “Words will never convey the agony, despair, and bewilderment of these innocents, the depth of their suffering, the pain of their separation.” The American slave trade and damage it caused to those who lived under threat of constant separation is one of the great cruelties in the history of the world. Giving voice to individuals silenced as a result of slavery, scholars are providing specifics on individuals who survived and by what means they struggled to preserve their identities,

Yes I understand it’s against the law to ask, but companies are trying to fill a position with so many candidates and if you are not able to give it your all not fair to them. Yes, I was capable but I would have had limitation and not right. I am a single parent. I had to make many scarifies, went to sleep without eating, but I am still here. It was my choice. Seeked part-time work and worked through agencies. When I saw my limitation, went for my real estate license. I set my own hours, my clients knew ahead of time of my schedule and if not able to accommodate would send out to another agent. I believe in karma and if I was to take the job and months after training they had to redo it, not cool.

I break the law all the time. But I am never caught. The only thing I have are my inner thoughts. I want to destroy the government. Actions like that get you killed. But thoughts, they are a safe place. In this world, anything you do can kill you.

I sit on a bar stool eternally staring into blank space, what have I done? I think to myself. Ned was like a brother to me. I may be free from the prison now, but I feel that I'll be forever condemned by the decision I just made. So what now?, I ask myself. Where do I go?. The constant chatter of the surrounding people and the non-rhythmic music in the background make little distraction to take my mind of the situation. “Lighten up Aaron” a young officer with an English accent said to me. “You’ve help us out a lot ya know”. I put on a fake smile to hide my sorrowful expression and give a polite nod. I pretend to be proud in what I have done but the fact is, betraying Ned was the more egregious decisions. Unable to cope with the company of other

When people think of slavery today they think of all blacks being treated unfairly and beaten all the time. Slavery is a serious and very rough topic due to the horror stories of beatings and how poorly some of the slaves were treated. That was not the case for all slaves, in fact some slaves had it easier than others depending on the overseers and the behavior of the slaves. Some were treated well and had love interests with their owners and some would look more to their religion of Christianity for how they should treat their slaves, which was usually less harsh. There are many factors that come into play when talking about the life of a slave in the south before the Civil War. In this paper I will talk a lot about different ways and reasons why slaves were treated the way they were, how the newspaper talks about the slave life and what the true meaning of "The Longest Memory" is.

Though my coffers are penniless, my mind is rich with mythology but alas, into reality I

Since the beginning of the transatlantic slave trade, captured Africans thought and plotted of ways to resist their bondage. After landing in America enslaved Africans resisted slavery in many forms; some of these were passive while others were more outright and violent. This essay will discuss forms of resistance used by slaves during their journey to America, as well as common forms of resistance slaves used while living on plantations. These forms of resistance were running away, slave revolts, and subtle day to day resistance. Regardless of the form of resistance used, slaves were not content living a life of bondage and used all means available to resist no matter the consequence.

I have been to court many times. I have been the victim of an art theft, a spectator to human trafficking, and the best friend of a murderer.

Slavery has been utilized in the United States since 1619 when the first African slaves were brought to the American colony of Jamestown, Virginia. On the day that the 13th Amendment was ratified, slavery ended. But what happened in these two hundred years is a story of mistreatment and horror for the slaves in America. Solomon Northup, the main character and writer of the memoir “12 Years a Slave” was born a free man in the northern and free state of New York. He recalls the horrors of being kidnapped and sold into slavery in his narrative. Violence plays a large role in not only his capture and enslavement, but the capture and enslavement of millions of Africans as well. However, this violent theme did not just affect the slaves. Master on slave violence was highly common, but so was slave on slave violence as well as master on master violence. Violence reinforced white superiority and ensured black subordination by instilling a fear into the hearts of the slaves from the beginning of enslavement. It made slavery possible by not allowing the slaves to even consider their escape to freedom because the fear in their hearts of capture and punishment was greater than their will to escape.

Ariel was still sleep, so i knew this was my get away. Ariel was my big sister who was currently 23, and tried to boss me around all the time. It was the night of the biggest party in the world, and nobody could stop me. My best friend Vanessa convinced me to go so i had to. i through on my beautiful blue dress, and headed before my jail awaited me.

I have learned that there are a few fallacies I am guilty of however, I didn’t realize they would be something I should avoid. I didn’t realize that simple things like giving too much information could be a bad thing however, I now realize staying simple is the way to go. I’m a superstitious person, so Post Hoc, Ergo Propter Hoc is me saying “if you break a mirror that is seven years bad luck” but that isn’t uncommon for me however, it should be avoided when writing because there isn’t logic that bad luck will follow. When I write I have to learn to think logically and simple which will be a challenge for me. I have found I am also guilty of Circular Reasoning. I like to make statements then emphasis to make the statement stronger however, I shouldn’t because it isn’t
