In chapter 6, it talks about the seven-mile world, which was centered in Crotonoa Park in the Bronx and extended to create a seven mile radius around this park. Crazy Legs described hip-hop’s four elements as: DJing, MCing, B-boying, and graffiti. Just as we learned in class, it really goes on to talk about graffiti and how it was seen as a “way of gaining status in a society where to own property is to have identity”. With the goal of graffiti being to achieve the most fame, which was done by taking the most risky spots in the city, youths were putting themselves in high danger to get the perfect “tag”.

Though not a militaristic man, he had no doubt that the misbehaving colonies must be made compliant. The war under Howe and Washington officially began in Lexington and Concord and then Bunker Hill, and it made him uneasy. He

First, while both characters share similarities portraying the perspective of the genocide, they also show some major differences in the point of view as the main character in the movie was a hotel manager while the other main character from the book was a young, Tutsi woman. Also, while they face similar conflicts and hardships, both have their own personal field of adversities to face.

In chapter thirteen, Walt and Eric make it to Shamattaawa. When they get there, they are so relieved because they thought they were lost which would be terrifying because there would be no way to get out. Eric and Walt started becoming annoyed by every little thing, which causes them to blame each other. It only gets worse as things get tougher and tougher. Finally, things got to the breaking point and Eric and Walt snapped and started fighting. I understand why they started fighting because they are stressed out from worrying about being on the right track and being cold. I would be very irritated if I was in that position also. I am surprised they never fought from the beginning of the trip. That shows they work well together and can work

I’m glad that I chose this book because it taught me that one person can have a huge impact on an issue that he or she feels strongly about. I thought Serpico would have become a replica of those crooked cops. Who would of thought Serpico would be the police officer to deny graft, bribery and other criminal benefits? That’s the most appealing information because who would chose justice over money? Apparently Frank Serpico thought that corruption wasn’t going to get him to a detective rank. He believed the only way was to endeavor. A quote from the book was “the
