Nevertheless, he was tired and fell asleep after a few minutes on the ride. He woke up several times with extreme pain from sleeping in the fetal position for multiple hours in one setting. One time he woke up to find that the movie player was out of order, so he was forced against his will …show more content…
In the museum, Luke and his team were haunted by a terrifying dead sloth, nevertheless, they had to push forward towards the remaining exhibits. Little did they know, they were about to see a webcam with the majestic panda bears. Lights were focused on the lone baby panda with the power to rule the world with the overpowering mightiness of cuteness. After two minutes of staring at a sleeping panda baby that achieved nothing, Luke and his team moved to the mysterious Air and Space museum. Luke was forced to witness a graphic video about a battle in World War One. From flamethrowers to man-made walls crafted from skulls, Luke and his teammates were officially grossed out and gradually left. On their way out of the WW1 exhibit, Luke discovered an Apollo 11 full sized model, he thought it was so cool he just had to stare at it for ten full minutes. Not to mention, when Luke was in the World War One exhibit he saw so many of the first military planes used; Biplanes that dropped bombs, shot other planes, and some were even made just for reconnaissance on the battlefield. In addition, Luke was even able to see a model of the Hindenburg and a real piece of the powerful zeppelin, the also very combustible zeppelin. “One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind!”, Luke sure learned that quote down to the bones of his body, he was given the opportunity to see the real Apollo 11 command module

    I was sure to do my study guide and review it before clinical, as well as completing all labor and delivery drug cards, including two extra. This helped me understand what the nurses and doctors were taking about. This clinical in L&D, which enabled me to use the wave understandings that Traywick taught to us the previous week. This helped me see how the patients were doing in relation to contractions and how the baby was responding. This was interesting and neat to have an idea of what it means instead of going throughout clinical without any insight on this.…

    The museum that I chose to visit for this assignment is the Palm Springs Air Museum. I visited the museum on March 22nd with a few of my friends. I had arrived at the Museum with the intent that I was going to write about one of their many aircrafts. However, it didn’t end up being so simple, for I was delighted to come across an overwhelming array of options. Surprisingly, I was most interested by the historical displays rather than the aircraft. They provided an incredible amount of information about historical aeronautical events ranging from aerial combat situations to very unique events such as “The Piggyback Flight.” In addition, they also have displays commemorating numerous historical figures and groups. One of these…

    In the late 19th century, Ida B. Wells dedicated most of her life to spreading the word about the horrific nature of lynching in the American South. Wells was a journalist, teacher, rights activist, and a public speaker. As an African American woman in the south during this time, Ida B. Wells was able to use her status as journalist to expose to the general public the true facts of lynching cases that suggested black wrongdoings. Wells used cases from all over America to convey the innocence of African American lynching victims. There was a huge double standard between whites and black on the premise of crime. Although white men also participated in heinous acts, they were far less punished compared to their black neighbors. The majority of the cases being brought up at the time suggested that African American men were violating white women. Many violent white men would choose to murder an African American because they suspected he had been “criminally intimate”1 with a white women. In some instances, the reason for lynching was totally personal and obviously took place just to make a statement and “keep the nigger down”2 and the white men would justify it by claiming that the African American was wrong or barbaric. Because lynching is unlawful and without a trial, the accused stood little to no chance in seeking justice. Wells tries to make it clear that white women were to blame just as much as the black men who were involved in the affairs, and that in most of the situations the women were consenting or even initiating the intimate acts. When trying expose the truth about these issues, Wells and others who spoke up were warned and told off by the white men’s press. Even though it was evident that the southern white population was unhappy about the claims being made against lynching, Wells made it clear that she had a specific purpose to disprove the assertions being made against her people.…

    Ida B. Wells uses a straight-forward writing style to boldly prove multiple arguments against the wrongful accusations of the lynching, rape, and the gruesome murders set forth by the vile southerners. Wells distinguish her examples and theories to disprove the justifications of lynching made by Southerners. Within her book, Wells portrays the views of African-Americans in the 1890s. Since the southerners allowed widespread lynching; while cowardly hiding behind the excuse of "defending the honor of its women." (pg.61, 2nd paragraph) The charge of rape was the common excuse used in many cases to lynch innocent African-American men. “The fact that only one-third of the 728 victims to mobs have been charged with rape, to say nothing of those of that one-third who were innocent of the charge.” (pg. 61, 2nd paragraph) The victim's innocence was often proved after his death. Wells states that the raping of white women by Negro men is an outright lie. Wells supports her statements with several stories about mutual relationships between white women and black men. White men are free to have relationships with colored women, but colored men will receive death for relationships with white women.…
