This was my last visit at Make the Road and it was a packed house. I was helping two children at one time so it was pretty hectic. But all in all we finished helping and they got their work done. That’s all that matter.

Different area but teaching kids still is as rewarding as always
The movie the 13th amendment talks about the controversial past and present of the black persons civil rights. It explains how institutionalized slavery is the same thing as slavery, just a variation to make it seem like black people are not slaves. It estimates that 2 million are in prison as of now, which is 1/4 of the United States general population.
Tee play that me and my other LC group members was very good. It was about different jobs and how the working class people go through their days. Many of the jobs had taken a serious toll on the people and made them wonder if they had been at their top potential, what kinda living would they make for themselves. I enjoyed it because it showed me the true meaning of hard labor and the behind the scenes feel of a lot of different jobs.
The African burial ground site was a surprisingly interesting form of community service for many reasons. When we arrived I saw the breathe taking architecture it entailed. I enjoyed sitting there and walking around , conversing with my classmates on how important it was to have such a place. The earth is etched in stone on the ground and has vivid detail that is appealing to the eye. Overall, I enjoyed every moment of my little trip in the lives of those not forgotten.
