The color purple which is a epistolary novel by Alice Walker. The book is mostly about a young girl who is facing a lot of trouble in her life,but she can’t get herself from it because she don't know how to fight. All she knows how to do is survive.
Celie and Nettie are two sister who lived with their stepfather who they knew as their Pa. Celie was raped by Pa and became pregnant.Her mother died because her young daughter was pregnant and didn't know who the father was.
Nettie’s Celie sister was being looked at by Mr One of the men in the church. He went to her Pa to ask for her hand in marriage but Pa said no because he thought she was too young and pretty to get married to Mr. Pa decided to give Celie up because she was good with children and she already had some her self.
When Celie got married to Mr, she went through hell. She got beaten most of the time because she was a women and also because Mr never wanted to marry her. After spending some time with Mr, her sister Nettie beg to move in with her because Pa was starting to look at her. Mr said yes because he thought he was gonna get a chance with Nettie while she is in the house.
Nettie and Celie was happy to be together again because they were the only two people they have. Nettie had Celie and Celie had Nettie.
Nettie was still going to school when she was in the house. So when she went to school and came back she would teach Celie what she learned. with that Celie was able to read.
While Nettie was walking to school one day Mr followed her.He tried to force her to have sex but she refused. She was so scared that she started swinging her bag with her school book at him. After that she decided to run home.
When Mr got home He was angry that Nettie refused to have sex with him so he decided to throw her out. Separating the two sisters all they can do to stay in contact was to write.
Nettie left the house trying to find somewhere to live. She also wrote Celie to see if she was safe but Celie never reply. This was how both of the Sister was separated and were trying to unite again.
Reading the color purple had a lot of differences in the two sisters, Nettie and Celie. The difference between Celie and Nettie is their religion spirituality and their gender inequality.They both had a different way of dealing with it and also experiencing it.
Celie religion and beliefs is not really strong she likes keeping it to herself. For example,
“Dear Nettie I don't write to god no more I write to you. What happen to god? ast Shug. who that? I say.. What god do for me ..But deep in my heart I care about god” (pg 195).
This quote prove that Celie is not only scared of men but also what people might think of her. Celie say she don't care about god because she might get ask why she care about someone who have not be there for her. Another reason why Celie is keeping her thought to her self is because she cant fight for what she believes in. For example when Celie first moved into the house She let the kids run over her and let them do what they want because she couldn't fight.
“Don't let them run over you, Nettie say. You got to let them know who got the upper hand . They got it, I say. But she keep on, You got to fight. You got to fight. But i say i don't know how to fight. All I know how to do is stay alive” (pg 17)
Celie don't know how to stand up for herself.She cant fight for what she believes in. All she knows how to do is keep to her self,follow people direction and stay alive. To her staying alive is not getting in people way and not getting herself in trouble even though if she want to do what right or what she even believe in.
Nettie on the other hand is very different from her sister Celie in Religion beliefs. Nettie's stand for what she believes in and say what she want to say.She is a very strong women who don't think anybody is greater then her or even control her.Everybody is equal in some way. Nettie and Celie was force to stop their education by their Pa, but with Nettie strong beliefs that she could make she never listen to him.and she spoke her mind. Later on in the year Nettie join a missionary group.
“ Corrina and Samuel and the children are part of a group of people called missionaries, of the American and African missionary society. They have ministered to Indian out west and are ministering to the poor in this town”
Nettie and the family she stay with went to Africa to minister to people during that time Nettie minister unto the little children of African and even open up a school. She did what she wanted to do which was to tell her beliefs for god to people.
Celie and Nettie’s gender Inequality are also very different. When Celie was growing up the situation she went through made her believe that guys are better.
“He beat me today cause he say i winked at a boy in church. I may have have got something in my eyes but i didn't wink. I don't even look at men's. That the truth. I look at women, tho, cause I'm not scared of them”(pg 5)
Celie feared guys and thought they were better because of how Pa treated her.He raped her and got her pregnant.Nobody ever listen to her part of the story because everybody listen to the men of the house. She also thought guy was better because they take total control. For example when ever a guy want to get married they can just take the girl no matter how young they are or even if they want it or not.
Nettie even though had people who experiences the harsh part of gender inequality,Nettie never did. Nettie unlike Celie believes that with education everybody can be equal even if they are a men or women or even black and white.

I have chosen to debate that wiki leaks is bad for our country. Every now and then, new secret documents are released to the public that could cause people to lose trust in their government
I disagree with Colin because i believe that wiki leaks is great help to the people of a government.
For example, in class Mr. Sutherland show us on wiki leaks that in Afghanistan little boys were used as prostitutes to dance for older man as strippers.
Wikileaks, in a recent document-dump, has stirred up evidence that as part of the war effort in Afghanistan, almost two billion US tax dollars have been spent contracting with a private company which, among other scandals, helped throw a party for Afghan police recruits where young boys were pimped out for sex.

The US has been going in the wrong direction for years by classifying millions of documents as secrets. Wikileaks and other media which report these so called secrets will embarrass people yes.

Collin you essay and quote you got were really good. If i had agree with your opinion there will be nothing to fix. You give me the information of where you got your quote from. Your point that you was trying to give out was clear. good job.

the color purple
What do Celie's letters to God tell you so far about 1. Her character traits and 2. Her beliefs about and relationship with God? Use quotes to answer both parts of this question.
“It’s worse than that, I think. If I was buried, I wouldn’t ave to work. But I just say, never mine, never mine, long as I can spell G-O-D I got somebody along.”
Celie’s letters tells me that she doesn't have no one to talk to.(not trying to spoil the story) Nettie Celie sister is not with her no more and she never used to talk to her dad, so while she staying with MR_ a man she never wanted to marry she don't have no one to talk to.
To me Celie is a very quite person who is scared to stand up or fight for her self.
“I keep hoping he fine somebody to marry. I see him looking at my little sister. She scared. But I say I’ll take care of you. with God help.”
“She good with children, Pa say, rattling his paper open more. Never heard her say a word to narry one of them. Just give em everything they ast for. is the only problem.”
She care about other people and not herself. For example when MR came to ask her sister Nettie for her hand I'm marriage. she was scared for nothing bad to happen to her sister so she wanted to take her place.
Her beliefs about and relationship with God?
Her belief about god is that he is there and is watching over her even though she don't have no one right now. She write to him when she has something on her heart. She writes to him when she is in need. her relationship with god is that he is the one who give her strength to survive since she cant fight. she believe that one day god will bring she and her family back together. she belief that god is watching over her sister, her and her children her daddy send away. she also belief that one day god will take revenge for her, to all the people that gives her pain and love to see her cry.

Debate post
The question i chose to debate about is Should teens be allowed to vote?
In my opinion, I would say no teens should not have the right to vote..Because we are young and not mature enough to take upon a big responsibility.
Teen should not be able to vote because they might not be interested in politics but since they have to vote they will just chose anybody.
Teen should not be allowed to vote because they might do to just look cool. when you are given the right o vote that means you are responsible enough. But when you are doing it just to be cool then that not responsible.
“No. I was immature as a teen. I wasn't well-versed in politics or national affairs or social issues. Most teens aren't. Similarly, they're not old enough or experienced enough to have solidified real positions on important issues beyond what their parents have taught them. This is something you can only see in retrospect, as an adult” (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071219150549AAJEdSw)
“They don't understand the issues and most of them wouldn't take the time to get out and hear the candidates.”(Asylum 92) Speaking from a teenager i agree with this quote the kids will not want to take time out of having fun to listening to politician speak.
“You live in a democracy and that means that you get a say in who runs your country, and by way of this privilege you also get a say about how your country is run”
Teen still get the right at some point for them to chose who will run the country. but that will be when they are mature enough.
“A government by the people, for the people just can't work without the people. This is a simple fact. Like a car without an engine, or a computer without a hard drive, a democracy without voters is just a shell and has no power. While it is easy to say "one vote doesn't make a difference" the reality is that every vote counts”. (http://teenadvice.about.com/od/teenlifefaqsandqas/a/youthvote2004a.htm)
A government for the people will always be for the people. But when we feel like given it to everybody and it not taking seriously it will be mess up. When it mess up the people will no longer have a government that will be for them.

THE RESPONSE POST
I got this great quote of my sister Beatrice Zulu page. I tried to link it but for some reason that was not working on my computer. But if you will still like to see what I'm talking about the name of her blog is call (IN MY SHOE).
“Everyone think I should be happy, because I’m the only child of my parents.”
Her saying the world think in that sentience will make me hypothesis that she try to say that not true. If that is what she saying that i agree with her.
Because you are the only child doesn't make you happy. i mean some people who feel like if there parents have a lot of children, they wont have the attention they had, or they wont get the money they used to get because now they have to share. That obviously can be true. But that should not be a reason why you wish to be that only kid. Sometime you may feel lonely and need some one to talk too. having a sibling and help you with that.
One thing i will let to put out is when you have a sibling and you guys ask your parents to go somewhere like a party. The chances of you go will be very fear, because your parent will think about the possibility and they will understand that you are with your sibling. Which means you guys will watch out for each other and give good advice before doing something stupid.
having a sibling can also be helpful because you can never tell your future.
I'm not wishing nobody bad luck by saying this, but how about in the future you are not that successful as you think you would end up.Your parents are dead so you cant run home for help. But you have a sibling who became very successful and can help you with your problem.That one of the good reasons why no matter how happy you are or how many things you get from your parents, you should never be happy that you are the only child in your family.

Elite Colleges
“Elite colleges”
the writer is Martha O’ O'Connell. The main point of the response: understand that is not “where you go” that matter. I agree with her because i went to a small school that really don't teach a lot because of the student. the student take all the teacher time to stop them from talking and we don't learn non thing. But when i were applying for high schools on my mind i thought i wont get into a good high school. then to my surprise i made it into a small and great school like ASTI.
for me to go back to her point of it not where you go it what you do. When i went to my middle school it was hard for me to learn. first of all i were still learning English because i am from Africa. when the student are taking all the teacher time by joking around, it take time away from learning. even though all that was happening, i plane that in my mind i will do all my work, study for test, and make sure i ask the teacher for help when i needed it. So doing that i got good grades.
what i did was all my work even though i were at a small school but i ended up in a great school that really helping me.
“How do selective institutions help their students succeed? Let me count the ways: First, graduation rates rise with college selectivity, even among equally qualified students. “
“Third, even among equally qualified students, those who go to the most elite colleges have a much better chance of attending graduate and professional school. Again, among those who score 1200 or better out of a possible 1600 on the SAT, about 40 percent of those who go to the most selective colleges go on to graduate or professional school compared with only a quarter of equally qualified students who attend the least selective four-year colleges.”
In my opinion i don't think it right for money to have the power. That means for us who don't have money, but we try our best just to make it into a elite college might not make it. The reason is because all the kids who father or family has the money will be the one accepted because they wont need to ask for scholarship. Then the money maker are the one who will pay there fees on time.
those are my opinions and that what i think of the strong persuasive point and the weak persuasive point.
the writer is Martha O’ O'Connell. The main point of the response: understand that is not “where you go” that matter. I agree with her because i went to a small school that really don't teach a lot because of the student. the student take all the teacher time to stop them from talking and we don't learn non thing.
