and a traitor symbol on America because of events he took in such as him making South Carolina stay in the union and pay taxes, him vetoing the pet banks, and he signed for the Trail of Tears. First, he was still a dictator symbol of America because of him forcing taxes to South Carolina. The reason he forces high tariffs on South Carolina is that after they heard about the people having to pay high taxes South Carolina didn't want to follow along, so they tell the country that they no longer want

African Americans their rights but the south were against it claiming that the slaves provided the much-needed labor for their farms. This is what led to the civil war amongst other issues, and even though the country has been united ever since, race is still an issue and some states in the south fly the confederate flag. Opponents, however, have called for the removal of the confederate flag claiming that it fuels racial tension. One such opponent is South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, who made the

By far one of the most beautiful and tranquil places I have visited, the Sea Pines Resort on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina leaves me in awe every time. The overall beauty of the island is second to none and makes you want to stay forever. Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end, like when the week at the luxurious resort is over.

In my twenty-one years, I’ve taken some amazing vacations to some absolutely, beautiful places. These places, however, pale in comparison to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. I can remember being a young child and taking my first true, out-of-state vacation there. Since then, my family and I have gone there almost every year. Perhaps that is why I feel such a deep connection to this breathtaking spot. The most fascinating part of Myrtle Beach is just that; the beach. The weather in the summertime makes

We have now begun on our journey to South Carolina. I can’t wait to arrive, though I am worried about the travel there. When we first set out, father spoke with James, Elizabeth, and I. He finally thought it was time to tell us about Lexington and Concord, I don’t think he knows I know so much about it already. Though he told us some things I was not aware of.

I recently completed the Senior Experience for English 4 at Lexington High School, and I learned so much throughout it. I encountered a few difficulties throughout the experience. Choosing my topic was a bit of a struggle, but I eventually decided to go with a topic relating to physical activity. Another obstacle I encountered was working with my advisor.
