In Ms. Horne's class we are doing a project on the cointelpro and how government allowed the rights of citizens to be violated and neglected. I made my connection with Doruba ( Robert Moore ) . Who was accused with the murder of two police officers with no proper accusation . They just framed him and had him spend 19 years in prison. He was later on found not guilty and released. The cointelpro is basically a legalized spying method brought into light by J Edgar Hoover he was a cop and against the activist movements such as the black panthers and other activist parties so he brought up the plan of having each committee go against each other so that they can tell on each other. Because he was clever enough to think thoroughly that the only way to destroy a society is by having them destroy themselves. His theory was very affective he was able to clash all different types of groups and organizations legally because the government supported him and other followers one hundred percent The cointelpro was a very terrible thing because it allowed false accusations to be made and people were being spied on with everything they do in there day day life. I think this is a despicable act and it supposedly stopped but , in my perspective it still continues on until today .

SUCCESS( P)
I am passionate about being successful. I want to be the one in my family to bring everyone out of the gutters. I hate the idea of seeing my father slaving everyday to make someone else's dream come to light. I really do not like the idea of working for someone else and my temper and attitude is built up the same way. I am going to become my own boss. A entrepreneur there for it is not up to anyone to hire or fire me. The thought of someone else having control of weather I eat or not kills my spirit. I am a very independent person. I have no problem being to myself because it gives me time to gather my thoughts and think about who I am and what I am doing with myself.Even the thought of having a dominating partner in any situation such as a boyfriend or husband still has me questioning my future , because in the future I look forward to having my own little family and providing them with things my parent were not able to provide for me. I refuse to spoil them though because I do not play those silly games. They are going to have to work for every penny even if not physically it will be done mentally. I want them to understand the value of money and success through hard work either academically or doing little chores around the house and not allow everything to just be handed to them. But , without education success is just a figment of the imagination so I am going to step my game up in English class because that is the only class I'm slacking in.

MY BIRTHDAY ( FC)
HEYYYYYYY ! My Birthday is in exactly 17 days I am beyond excited. I have so many things to get done like my hair, nails, my outfit and my preparation for what I'm going to do on my birthday. I am turning the big seventeen Whoop ! Whoop ! which means a lot to me since I have a late birthday so in my mind I'm actually turning eighteen. I am ecstatic about the fact that I am going to be seventeen graduating high school and starting my freshmen year in college. Birthdays has always been a big think for me. Every year I just strive harder to do it BIGGER and BETTER then the previous year. My zodiac sign is a scorpion. My favorite color is Pink. Just the thought of the color pink sends chills down my spine. I am obsessed with this color. Its so bright and gives a fun and energetic vibe that just captures my attention every time. I like bright vibrant colors rather then boring solid and dark colors because I feel that colors can tell you a lot about a person and we are all guilty of judging people by there looks and what they are wearing before even get to know them. I love listening to music. Music should be a mandatory and essential aspects of every ones life. There are all types of creative genres for all different types of people. There is music for all types of moods or personal everyday settings people are faced with. I believe music has the ability to change your mood into whatever you want it to be. My personal favorite artist/ singer is Rihanna. I have been in love with this women since the 7th grade. Her nonchalant attitude and personality is what inspired me to be the person I am today and I thank god for that. I use to care a little too much about people thoughts on me and the way I carry myself but now things changed and I really think its for the better.

( PB)
I am passionate about becoming a model. I would like to become someone who is known all around the globe. Something like a international model. I want everyone to know my name and to also make a lot of money in the process. Being that I'm from a Muslim and African background my parents mostly my father is against the idea of his daughter being seen half naked around the world. Sometimes I try my best to shove the idea of becoming a model out my life but, its the hardest thing to do when yours always being complimented on your looks and being advised with the taunting idea of becoming a model flashing in my mind. Even in school I'm referred to as Ms. New York, Ms. USA or even Americas Next top Model all theses nicknames get me so pumped on my passion that I attempted to change my fathers perspective but its always to no avail. Being that I have to keep the image of being Daddy's little girl I fear losing his trust and love by following my ambition. But, I hope one day I will be able to change his stubborn mind. If not I will just go into the international business field because that is my second passion. I want to be an entrepreneur and become my own person. I am positive that he would like that better and I feel like I owe him that satisfaction because throughout most years of my life he has been both a mother and father figure and not many people have the advantage of having a strong father figure in their life. I am not interested in being a model my whole life. I actually look forward into having my own family and being a good mother to my kids and not end up lonely like Tyra Banks. I just want to go into modeling until I make it big enough to have the right connections in order to open my own successful clothing and jewelry boutique maybe even a few restaurants. I am positive that my goal will be a success because today's generation is based on who is wearing what and who you know. I also know that no matter how drastic the world is or becomes people will always need cloths and things that are going to make them feel like "down" , " get money" , or " have swag" by wearing the latest and trending designer brands.
