I want people to know that she was a great teacher who loved her family and her country. She had the courage to speak out and do

When a group of people feel they have been treated unfairly by the government, the US Constitution guarantees you the right to redress the government. The Japanese Americans did that and because the Civil Liberties Act of 1988 was passed by Congress, our constitution is strong again. It was weakened by Executive Order 9066 when President Roosevelt ordered 120,000 innocent Japanese Americans into internment camps. Mary Tsukamoto always took the initiative to follow her beliefs.

She was selected by the California State Senate as a Notable Californian. What is the structure or medium of the work from which the paragraph is excerpted?

Another simpler and clearer definition is that an essay is a free writing.
