While listening to Monica present her case to the SARB members, I felt she was sincere, however, I learned that she struggled with prioritizing her duties. I felt as if Monica needed extra support understanding her priorities and the support wasn’t coming from mom.

    “Letter to My Son,” written by Ta-Nehisi Coates in 2015, was in all essentiality advice. The article begins with the author describing his own sadness at the distance between a country built on a dream, and the sobering reality he saw. He continues on to talk about how his body, his son’s body, and the bodies of many of their peers around them, are very often going to be at the mercy of people around them. Coates then speaks of escaping the danger of having his own body at the mercy of another, and his desire to rescue himself through “a clash with the streets.” Cue a change of tone in the letter as it moves on to speak of the author’s “Mecca”. Which in this case means a holy city, or a place of light and perfection. For Coates, this place…

    From 1954-1960 Father Knows Best was a top show on television. It started on the radio in 1949 and then debuted on CBS in October of 1954. The show took place post World War II in a town called Springfield. It was never stated what state the town was in but due to mentions of Altoona, a town in Pennsylvania, viewers are led to believe that it took place in Springfield, Pennsylvania, just fifteen minutes from where I live. This show was very popular because it was such an idyllic presentation of family life. Robert Young played Jim Anderson, the father of three who balanced his family and job as a salesman and manager of the General Insurance Company. Jane Wyatt acted as Margaret Anderson who was married to Jim and was a…

    I am writing this letter in a hope that we will meet one day in the future. At this state I am a seventeen year old high school student. I have been given an assignment to write to my future child about personal success. To let you know right here at the beginning of my letter, I really believe that being a good parent is a sign of personal success. At this point I am not sure if I want to have a boy or a girl but I am certain that I have every intention of being a pillar of strength and support for my child. I know some people in their thirties that do not want to have children and I must say that I admire them for recognizing that parenting is not what they desire in their life. Do not let this contradiction confuse you. Knowing yourself and accepting yourself is a great success!…

    Coach Carter quoted “You have to be a great follower before you can ever lead”. This can mean many things but to me, it means that in order for you to be able to step up to leading, you must first learn how to follow. From Coach Carter’s message, I can learn that before trying to become a great leader, I first have to be a great follower. Without being a great educator, I have to be a great learner.…
