· No restrictions
· Ability to obtain life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
· Just and equal
· Voice
· Belief
· Emotion
· Not under any one else control
· To speak or not to speak
· Privileged
· Do anything
· No government oppression

Race
10 points of interest
· Race is a modern idea
· Race had no genetic basis
· Slavery predates race
· Race and freedom were born together
· Race justified social inequalities as natural
· Human subspecies don’t exist
· Skin color is only skin deep
· Most variation is within and not between races
· Race is not biological but racism is still real
· Colorblindness will not end racism
One idea that I think strikes, as surprising is the idea that race is modern. Back then they said people were grouped by religion or language or social status. I still consider that happening today. So saying race is modern is sort of a contradiction to all the facts given because people were categorized by race centuries ago.

For this project I learned
the different methods physical therapist use to diagnose their patients. By looking
at the results I gathered I was able to create an exercise program he the Drexel
student to help improve her sense of balance. After going over the program the patient
was given 5 weeks to continue the exercise program and come back after the 5
weeks to see how much she has improved. Although there were some obvious improvements, there were also some
areas where more work was needed.

Perspective changes everything and we always need to be aware of
how perspective influences us...
Perspective is always there and what keeps are minds aware. In English class Mr. Block always made sure we as his students always see or look at things in perspective. Perspective is needed when learning because no one can look at anything in one perspective because if you are, then you will really learn nothing at all.
In class we had to use perspective when we were looking through the “Feminist Lenses”. We had to look through situations in history through different lenses because "through different lenses,what do we discover?" We had to look through it as a woman or man. How would they see the situation? It really pulled everyone from their seats because you had to rewire you brain to think as a woman who was all about woman empowerment or as man who saw that all women do was wrong. It helped keep the mind dynamic because you had to switch roles fast when playing in the Feminist Lens.One of the assignments I had to use perspective was my play I wrote for Philadelphia Young Playwrights. I wrote about two girls who are a millions miles away from each other and have completely different lives meet and bond over having the stress of SAT. I had to use perspective in this because I am a sophomore and have never taken the SAT before so I had to have my character play the role of someone preparing for it. It was hard at first since I didn’t know how a person would feel. Then I remember watching a documentary about Korean students preparing for the entrance exams in college. I could see the nervousness in their face because this one test can determine your whole future. I really wanted to show how “Behind closed door there are a hidden world full of secrets.” I wanted to show how stressful the SAT could be and resulted in life and death for a lot of students. I played off that emotion and kept on playing with it. It helped as I wrote for my other characters and had to change my perspective as a daughter, mother, and an abuser father. It helped because I continually had to change perspective to write for my characters. I had to play their mindset and the history behind their lives. That was one of the greatest time I had ever had to change and use perspective like that.
In another time I had to look at things in perspective but also using art. We had to create a dance for “The Art In The Open” for the Leah Stein Dance Company. I had to use perspective because I had to see how choreography would look through my eyes but also my partners and the audience because “art can be the most powerful language." I had to make sure that the audience could see the choreography at all times and continually changes are positions. We also had to make sure the audience heard and understand out story behind the dancing and why we choose specific moves. That is a time we had to incorporate art into our perspective.
Another piece that I though that would use perspective was my
French/Haitian Revolution Role Play. I
felt this one also use perspective because we all had to play roles of people
who existed during that time because "every character played a role in the
revolution." This role play had to use perspective because everyone
constantly changed roles and had to speak and think for their character. We had
to use perspective because we had to see a situation through their eyes and not
their own.
For our English class we had to start a Poetry blog. It was difficult at first because " I
would just enjoy reading it but never capable of writing it." At
first it was okay because the poems were easy to write about. Then it got
really hard because we had to write an ode to inanimate objects. I choose a
clock and I had to write about a deeper meaning a clock had. I had to look at
it from a perspective in an artful manner, which was hard because it wasn't me
at all. But it challenged me to push out of my box and do something more
creative. Writing from a perspective of what is the message behind a clock
helped my writing become more creative.
Overall I have learned many things in Mr. Block class. But perspective is one the lessons that stood out to me. It will be something I will use for the future. Perspective is what everyone needs to see life in a different light. Everything I had to do or create in Mr. Block class has taught me that. I am thankful for all the opportunities we had to learn that and everything we got to do. This has been a great sophomore year that I will never forget.
MPyfrom- What If Benchmark
What if Malcolm X died when his Michigan home was burned to the ground?
Reflection:
For this project I wanted to take a prime leader who changed society out the equation. I choose Malcolm X because he played such a huge rule in the civil rights movement. Without Malcolm X in the picture the altered world became more peaceful. So my exact point of divergence is in 1929 Malcolm X's Michigan was burned down to the ground. To change history I am saying that Malcolm X does not make it out the house alive. That incident changes history drastically because now Malcolm X is not able to become a leading African American figure. As the years pass with the new defined history in 2012 I predicted that there will be less animosity between the black and white race.
One person can have a huge impact on history. I realized that taking a key player out can also have a drastic change. If one person can gather thousands of people to rally for a change in society of course eliminating them will have a different outcome. So in my project I mentioned Malcolm X being more of a aggressive leader so by taking him out there will be more positive energy to go around. The positivity would eventually lead to a more peaceful solution.
If I could do this project I would ask more thoughtful questions in the interview. In my interview I talked more about what has happened after because of Malcolm X's death than what lead up to it. That is something I would definitely change next time. Also in my interview I mentioned several family members to Malcolm X but next time I plan to make it more clear to the audience who are actually the family members. Overall I am very happy of my project's outcome.
Winston Wright- Q4 - What If?
German civil engineer Konrad Zuse, created a series of the worlds first programmable computers called the Z1, Z2, and Z3. His invention was critical in the world of computers. Possibly without his contribution he would have never built a programmable computer, delaying the current technological society we live in. The reason he even came to invent the computer was because he was working for Hitlers Nazi regime in Germany. He was experiencing with calculators, punch-tape computers, etc. and ended up making the Z series. In history, I have changed the fact that he ever worked for the Nazi regime at all. Before he was called up to service the party, he was working in aviation. Surely Konrad would have invented things that were beneficial to the progression of aviation in society. Because he was never called up to service, the programmable computers birth was delayed, also making personal computing in the later 20th century, a very controversial topic. In reality, by the 1960s people were already doing amazing things with the peripheral machines, and computers were also being used greatly for military. But this was because the idea of programming your own computer was commonplace. Without Konrad Zuse, the military were dominant and restricted certain civilian use of computers. We still see the companies like MITS, Apple, and Microsoft try to push the personal computer experience. When I mention the "computational revolution" I am talking about the fight between the military and commercial use of computers.
