What impact do you think reparations could have?

Answer:

The Japanese-Americans and Holocaust survivors got reparations for their hardships but for some odd reason African-Americans have not.

Possible reparations could be money and statues, but I think appropriate reparations would be free services. Many African-Americans are struggling and live in poverty because their families could not recover from slavery. I believe that free healthcare/ medical care and free higher education because it would be very beneficial. It would provide African-Americans with free doctors visits and medication and free college and university could provide poor children with opportunities to get a good job to support their families. They could become doctors, and lawyers, and presidents. There is nothing the United States could appropriately do to make up for this, but they can make an effort.

Why does the Fifth Amendment matter today? It prevents people accused of crimes from being sent far away to plead their case alone in front of a single judge.

The amendment protects the rights of children and minors that are not covered by other language in the Constitution.

Without this amendment, it would not be possible to pass laws to protect our right to use new technologies and ideas.

If it didn't exist, an innocent person could be forced to speak at their trial and may say something bad out of nervousness.​

The Note

All Rhonda wanted to do after she got Tracy's note was to barricade herself in somewhere, and tiny little Appleton Library seemed as good a place as any. She brought a few schoolbooks with her and a sci-fi novel in case she just wanted to lose herself. But as she sat in the downstairs cubicle, all she could do was read Tracy's note over and over:

Rhonda,

I won't be going to leadership camp with you after all over Spring Break. My aunt offered to take me on a trip to Costa Rica, and I couldn't pass it up. Sorry. Hope you have fun!

Your friend,

Tracy

As Rhonda read over those last words, she felt a sob well up in her throat. She and her best friend Tracy had been planning their 10 days at leadership camp for months—how they would be roommates, go to classes, and study together. And now "sorry" is all she had to say? Rhonda fought back the tears, but it was of no use. Suddenly, she felt lonelier than she had ever been in her life.

Passage 2

No Take Backs

Not four feet separated us

when you spoke those fatal words,

the corners of your mouth quivering

I wanted to snatch them from the air,

make you take them back,

and return to a time

when every word you uttered

rang clear and pure and true

But the great ticking clock

that marks our minutes and hours

plods relentlessly forward

And there are no take backs

Caring for Coral Reefs
Zachary Felton

Coral reefs are amazing underwater worlds. They cover about 186,000 square miles of ocean floor. They mostly exist in the warmest parts of the world. This is because coral reefs develop in shallow, warm water, usually near Land and mostly in the tropics. Coral reefs prefer temperatures between 70 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. This is why they are found off the coasts of Africa, India, Australia, and Brazil Coral reefs closest to us are found off the coast of Florida.
