possessions and experiences that feed our minds and satisfy the soul-life of simple needs and fewer wants, belonging to a man who's at peace with conscience and everything, except perhaps hunting tigers and lions in the African jungle - even though I have never been to an African jungle and much less hunting tigers and lions. I cannot conceive of anything more thrilling, and more fascinating than an adventure in Utopia.

Greetings to you on our final week of class! It has been a journey that I’m glad I have received the chance to experience in which I learned a lot. This week I chose to compare and contrast “A Raisin in the Sun” and “Everyday Use” because they have a lot of similarities. “Everyday Use” was one of my favorite stories to write about in week’s two forum.

He played for the Ethiopian National Soccer team in the first African Cup of Nation. At the time when I was a baby he was one of the few living soccer players who played in the first African Cup of Nations. He was also a veteran from the Korean War.

It states “Another huge movement going on was the Civil Rights Movement led by Martin Luther King Jr., which encouraged changes throughout the 60s in support of African American equality” (Winn).
