If I could live one week in any time period since the dawn of time‚ I would choose the mid-1960s to the early 1970s. I love this era of history because so many great things came out of it.

One of my service learning projects was based on my bill to the president. I addressed an issue that is contradicting our environment from the past years and is still occurring today. My bill topic was about racial profiling towards black people from the police and how it’s affecting our country.

Not only was Josephine an example for me she was an inspiration and an idol for so many African-Americans. She is a heroine in heart‚ mind‚ and body.
