a QUESTION FOR THE PUBLIC

Is there anything we can can do to save the ocean water ffrom the polution or will it just continue and can we just slow down the process?

"Media Saves the Beach"

Is there anything we can really do about the pacific gyre, or just try to reduce the amount of trash?

- is this really a big issue or just something that will continue.

Do people know the issue at hand about the water? Or do they have no clue?

- many people want to help the ocean but how are they advertising it to notify people

Can we still make a difference after reducing the pollution in the ocean or will it always be a ongoing issue?

is this a now problem or a forever ongoing situation

.

"ESSAY"

The war is still going on because of the confederate flag. To some people it represents the pride of the southerners to others it represents the slave states. For white southerners people find it as to be there flag but to the black southerners it is something that is felt like a hate sign. In dying for Dixie when questions were being asked about the flag, the lawyer had said the flag is a racist flag. For many being in an area where hated or mistreated by other was hard for blacks. In horwitz journal he arrives in the town entering a bar with racist comments and saying on the wall, rude people getting in his face jumping to conclusions. As he is in the bar a man approaches him wanting to start a fight, showing how ignorant the people in the bar were, giving an understanding why possibly the war was still going on. While he runs out the bar for his life he walks to the city not to far away across the state line to check into a motel. During all this we read that people have been talking about the murder of Michael Westerman and how some see him as an icon a hero for to die for the confederate flag over 130 years.

As the days goes on he goes about to finding the man who shot Michael. He talks to the man, telling him who he is. He was a boy from outside the town who was sent out to make a better life for him. He was viewed as a trouble maker a fighter, but he wasn’t. He was tired of how he was viewed and just ended up falling back into his old ways. The war isn’t a war, more of an eye brow raiser for outsider of still conflict over this situation, which come to say that not as changed from the south, they still haven’t recovered from the past and learns to let it go, as the former leader. For years there has been conflict between blacks and whites. Like the southerners have never let it go. Maybe past generations passed down stories from the past and brain washed there kids, and then there kids brainwashed there kids.
