Martin Luther King Jr.

I am choosing to write about Martin Luther King Jr. because this past Monday was the day we celebrated him. It's a federal holiday, held on the third Monday of January. It celebrates the life and achievements of Martin Luther King Jr.. An influential American civil rights leader who I proudly respect. The death of Martin Luther King Jr. was tragic but died for his cause and it was a good one. Always follow your dream, never give up on your dream be like Martin Luther King Jr.. If you need help, seek help and people will help you. He had certain views that kill him but almost every one agreed. In my opinion you don't like a person views, you shouldn't kill a person just what they believe in. James Earl Ray was a racist, which means that he didn't like MLK Jr. and killed him for his views.  Honestly for me this not a good reason to kill someone, but back then people did kill for that reason.  

Homecoming

I am writing today about homecoming because one week from tomorrow, my school will be having our homecoming dance. While I was looking for quotes I saw this one and it sounded more interesting from the others. Homecoming has been around for about 106 years, it really does not get old if we still have now. It will be continued for a long time it has lasted this long. Homecoming is for the school to celebrate their football team but in my school since we don't have a football team we celebrate our basketball teams. Each school has a homecoming game and a homecoming dance. I feel people should come with your friends and if you have a date they should come with you. Homecoming should be a day were you celebrate you team winning and a day with your friends. In my school the girls basketball team will be representing the homecoming game.
