Tuskegee Airmen I dedicate my first article to the Tuskegee airmen. They were the first African- American aviators in the United States armed forces. The Tuskegee airmen were subjected to racism. Despite these adversities they trained and flew with distinction. They went on amazing missions and saved many people. I chose these men because they inspired me to believe that even though you may be doubted and scoffed to still strive for your dreams. When I think of the Tuskegee airmen I think of a quote by Walt Disney. “Whatever you do, do it well. Do it so well that when people see you do it they will want to come back and see you do it again and they will want to bring others and show them how well you do what you do.”
Self Portrait Poem I’m slender like my dad My eyes are like the color of coffee beans I’m rising like a tree My hair is soft and curly I love the game of basketball I’m intelligent, Dependable, and reliable My heart holds the belief that all good Comes from above My drive is fueled by my passion inside.

Ode to Persistence Firm in a course of action Despite opposition or difficulty All things are difficult before they are Easy It’s not about the fall it’s about the Reaction Success is not a skill It’s a persistent attitude Persistence is like a water fall Never ending You can try to block it but Eventually it will erupt Persistence is not for the Weak-minded You need passion, goals, and a driven mind Persistence is not easily learned It is something that is instilled from Birth Persistence means never turning around Figure out how to climb it, Go through it, or work around It.
