...my work, notes, assignment and providing genuine and necessary feedback. In addition, it was great reviewing other’s assignment and providing needed and necessary feedback in return. It was fun at the same time having to look at my peer assignment on a professional level. I interacted with them via the discussion board and email. Initially, it was a little bit awkward but after a while I got over it as I do that at work already where I review my colleagues report blindly. The only difference was that I have seen my colleagues before compare to here where you have absolutely no idea who they are except from the brief introduction from the first day of class I read about them. I had great interactions with them where they told me amazing stories about the chosen companies and I did the same in return about Naira bakery in Brooklyn, what prompted my in law to start the company. Overall, this class has been a great experience for me in the end. Personally, working with my classmates on those assignment, chatting back and forth, and working with ideas, brainstorming, helping arrange my notes was superb and very helpful. It was a good opportunity to get to know your classmates beyond the initial introduction, turning in assignment and discussions in the discussing...

...become independent and no longer dependent upon my parents. I learned how to live on my own, when my babies were sick I had to learn how to care for them, work a job, get them to a sitter etc. This was a change that I experienced but however, it has made me stronger and the woman I am today. I also went through stages of change where i felt I could not care for my children because I was being evicted from my apartments, no transportation, and losing jobs every month due to my attendance. I went through a change of depending on men who I thought were the world to me and always left me. The final change took place when I got tired and got saved. I grew up in the church all of my life and as an adult; I wanted to live the party life. It is amazing how even in our "mess" God is still there with us even when we stray. We may leave him but he never leaves us. When I got saved, my life changed and has never been the same. I am now stable, my twins are 14 and they are respectful young men of God. I have been blessed with stable employment, nice transportation and I know to depend on God and not man!!! I still have bumps in the road and we all do but his grace and mercy is given to us...

...Amazing Grace is an inspirational movie focusing on William Wilberforce’s numerous efforts to bring an end to slavery. I personally was not really shaken up by much in the movie, but one thing did. The one thing that struck me in the movie was Wilberforce’s passion for the abolition of the slave trade, and how much he wanted it done. As William Wilberforce stated “I wish I could remember all their names. My 20,000 ghosts, they all had names, beautiful African names. We'd call them with just grunts, noises. We were apes, they were human.” The fact that William Wilberforce carried the slave trade as a burden proved to me that this was something very bad that needed to be stopped. His burning passion for the equality of all people was one moment in Amazing Grace that really struck me....

...My Reading Response to Amazing Grace Jacqueline Stephens My Reading Response to Amazing Grace The poem I have chosen to respond to is Amazing Grace by John Newton. Giving birth to a child creates a strong bond between a mother and daughter, the emotional bond created between my granddaughter and myself is due to the fact, I had custody of her for the first two and half years of her life and I sang Amazing Grace to her every night before bedtime. She weighted a pound and six ounces when she was born, by the Grace of God she is a thriving six year old. This gives reason for her name, Nevaeh Lee, her first name backwards with her middle name, Heaven Lee. This poem touches my heart on a level no song has ever done. It was a way we spent our special time together. I can feel her little body lying on my chest with her hand clutching my shirt collar. This is the “Intensity of Emotion” (Section 13.4) I feel when I think of those times and wish by some miracle I could experience them again. I can hear her mom calling me on the phone when she had visitation at her at bedtime, asking me, “What does Nevaeh want”. I asked her what is she saying, she replied “mazing”, my heart broke. I told her she needed to be sung Amazing Grace to go to sleep. I feel the tears now. I started singing this to her when she was six months old. That is when she was able to come home from the hospital. I think I sang this to her until she was three and there are times...

...The ways in which the Baptist church worship THE TRADITIONAL SERVICE Music: Currently, this venue continues to enjoy the great hymns of the faith. A hymnal can still be found in the pew pocket. However, there are many who know most of them by heart. The song leader leads the congregation like a choir in singing everything from Amazing Grace to Zion Haste, accompanied by a pianist and an organist. There will always be a "special," just before the message, referring to a | | solo or small group musical presentation or perhaps even the choir. A Southern styled gospel quartet fits very well into this type of venue. Message: With his suit and tie uniform looking every bit the man of God he is, the pastor preaches a sermon from the Word of God to a spiritually hungry congregation. Regardless of the topic of the hour, the conclusion of every message will contain the plan of salvation. Doubtless, a hymn of invitation will be sung at the conclusion to invite sinners to come and kneel at an old fashioned altar to do business with God. As the hymn, "Just as I Am" is sung (or a similar hymn of invitation), those who respond to the calling of God's Spirit are met by personal workers up front who pray with them if needed. Souls are saved and lives are changed. | - THE CONTEMPORARY SERVICE Music: Two electric six-string guitars, a bass guitar, a digital electronic keyboard, and a set of drums flank the pulpit. The choruses are flashed up on to the angled ...

...“Amazing Grace” all i need remix WHY NOT TRY A LOVE RAP? Inspired by…someone CHORUS:X2 Before I met you I was wasted space. I felt there was no way of saving face. Now through the church of love I’m gaining faith. You’re my song on Sunday..my amazing grace verse 1: It was raining outside, in walked the sunshine. A pretty young thing, had me fumbling dumb lines. Stuttering and mumbling,damn she was so fine. A diamond class lover this girl is a gold mine. Those were my thoughts as she passed and smiled. I wondered if this love would last a while.. Damn…those aren’t thoughts a single man should have. Most of us are like..“man when can I tap that ass?” But,really,when i sit back and examine the facts. She filled my heart’s void and prevented collapse. Kept my mind running like Flo Jo on tracks. She had a body like a big-mac baby was “stacked.” Beautiful, intelligent, and sexy as hell. Makes other women irrelevant..Alexi to Zell. (A to Z) I’m imprisoned by love.I’m in the “ecstacy cell” I’m deep in a trance in which I instantly fell. It seems as if the clouds just drifted away. She’s my angel of love that lifted my faith. Now there’s nothing but blue skies.No shades of grey. She’s my song on Sunday..my “Amazing Grace” CHORUS:X2 VERSE 2: She can handle life and support herself. But she ain’t gotta do a thing with her gorgeous self. Perfect complexion..eyes like stars.

...that the only questions God can answer are those that are tied to faith. The truth is that God is in everything; therefore all questions can be answered by or tied to Him. The gift of testament through the verses included in the bible is just one of many examples of the answers God has given. Through the words written in the 66 books of the bible, the answers to many of the dilemmas of our day can be found and explained. One way is stated, “As we read the bible, one of our first startling discoveries is that though the people in the story lived long ago, we recognize ourselves in them. They faced the same problems we face. They had questions like ours. The responses God provided for them remain true today” (NewLiving, 2005). It is amazing that no matter where a person looks in the bible a story, a verse, a chapter can be found that can take a believer or non-believer and make it apply to their lives. A life that is...

...replications on anthropology and racism today. The essential to answering the question of what is Anthropology is the real mystery? In this essay we will discover how anthropology and racism are intertwined and affect our lives. Racism today takes the form of financial and political differences, arranged along the collective group of race. These two things are both facts and still very much present. Before saying anything about the human evolution and biology, it would be necessary to understand ideas of the race shape scientific investigation. The human evolution to categorizing hominin species to discussions about Neanderthal and denisovan breeding and potentially entering the race of ideas, configurations of anthropology and racism today. I like to give you a little insight to how we will look into races the black race is a race that has been abused in time past. They tend to be violent especially to themselves. They are group of that have some that think only of themselves or do anything to move up the latter. The things that is so amazing about this group of people is how they will come together when one of there on has been wronged be another race but they turn around and do it to themselves. Figure that out and let me know. Nacirema are culture that is very superstitious and are determined to live a quality of life. The central belief underlying the Nacirema is that the human body is very ugly. The natural habit is to keep away weakness and disease. Imprisoned in a body, man...

...Race and my Community My name is ****** and I am a 33 year old white woman. I live in a very small city called *******, we are located just outside of the *** *****, ** city limits. Our city has a population of 4,660, according to the 2010 U.S. Census. Although our city is only one square mile, we have many diverse groups of people that live here. While we may not be a large city by any means, we are rich in culture. Our racial break up is listed as such: 71.82% White, 6.09% African American, 0.22% Native American, 15.72%Asian, 11.46% Hispanic, 3.24% from other races, and 2.81% from two or more races. 0.10% Pacific Islander. While the majority of the community is white, we do celebrate other cultures. We as a community try and make sure that we stay as diverse as possible. I have lived here most of my life, and have never had any kind of racial issues. Even in the high school that I went to, which was mostly Hispanic and African American, I cannot recall ever having a racial issue with anyone else. In my community we have a mayor, and a city council. As of today, all of the members on the city council are white males. Our race might be the only thing that we have in common. While I do not agree with a lot of the things that our city council is doing right now, I plan on trying to change some of that by running for council myself. I am going to attempt to get myself on the ballot for 2013. I would like to see some of the other minority people in our community step up...

...bit of fiction to them. While reading Malcolm X: Learning to Read I learned what a brilliant man Malcolm X became to be. The intelligence was not developed through standard education but was developed spending almost 15 hours a day reading in prison. Book after book and topic after topic were explored. Black rights, genetics, history of America, and many more were exhausted to the point of memorization. Malcolm X went as far as to copy the dictionary page by page into his own tablet to expand his vocabulary. The extremes this man went to were amazing. It was interesting the knowledge I obtained through reading this short essay. As it was explained in race determination that a white man carries a recessive gene, a black man does not. With this theory in mind it is said that the first man, Adam, had to be black. A black man can send off a gene that will produce a white race but a white man cannot produce a gene that will create a black race. This was a reality check for...
