My stomach feels like it’s tightening into a tiny little ball. I feel like throwing up. I keep thinking that I’ll get laughed at

the minute I step off the bus. Instead, I’m greeted by a couple of my friends who were in my English class last year. At that point, it hits me. Ms. Gruwell, my crazy English teacher from last year, is really the only person who made me think of hope for my future. Talking with my friends about our English class and the adventures we had the year before, I began to feel better . . . . I receive my class schedule and the first teacher on the list is Ms. Gruwell in Room 203. I walk in the room and I feel as though all the problems in my life are not important anymore. I am home.

ASAP 50 POINTS ENGLISH
Alja [10]
King says we have to realize that it is always the time “to do right”! He made the point that in order for everyone in the U.S to have human dignity, the “quicksand”-like national policy of his time must be changed to “solid rock”. By engaging in “nonviolent direct action”, they bring hidden things out into the open. Without the problems clearly being seen, society would remain otherwise. It leads to healing.
