History

So I am writing my history paper on writing down history. I know that it might sound weird...but I think that these last few weeks of learning about racism in America has really enlightened me. Maybe its just hard being the one that is considered the most racist and always having people bitter towards me just because of the color of my skin. However, I would argue that too in itself is racism. Racism is not just towards people of colored skin although some will argue that it is. Racism can be turned the other way as well. My paper is going to argue that maybe by teaching history we are allowing the past to live in the present. Maybe we are allowing the past to have power in the present by getting our identities from where we came from. It should prove me be quite an interesting paper. I'll let you know.

Btw, Chris is coming tonight. He was supposed to be here in like 30 minutes but his plane got delayed. Bummer, huh? I really can't wait...I mean really. Maybe I should just start driving to the airport and hope the plane is there when I get there. Okay I'm done. Love. Bye

Btw, I love Jesus.
