Back then the Eurpeons would judge the slaves very poorly and badly. They would wipe them, boss them around, call them bad names, and make them feel like they weren’t imporyant just because they were a different color. I think that was wrong to do back then because the were people who were like you and me. Just because they were African American doesn’t mean you can judge them like that. I think the relastionship between blacks and whites are a lot better now because we know that Afican Americans are just people who are trying to live their life. There are a couple stereotypes still around though, like all African Americans can jump higher than white people and if your a rich person everybody thinks your greedy. You can stop stereotypes by not believing what other people are saying or just keeping your thoughts to yourself. I think stereotypes will be in society because I always here stuff about people about different kinds of stupid stuff about people.
Stereotypes Back then and Now
A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words
This is a picture of what some people think the American flag means to some of my family members and friends.
Dolly Madison’s crazy act in the War of 1812
Dolly Madison did the weirdest things in the White House. When the British were coming to burn down the White House she took the painting of George Washington from getting it burned to shreds. Without her savinhg the painting of him we would never know what it looked like. As she took down the painting she ran outside to see the British burn down the White House in tears. Out of all things she could of saved she saved that amazing picture of George Wahington, I think that shows great honnor for George Washington. If you were Dolly Madison would you save the picture of George Washington or would you just let it burn into shreds with the White House. These were probably the thoughts Dolly Madison had going through her head. That was one of the most weirdest things I have ever heared in American History.

Creative Things
Creative things always show up to be something special like the American flag. If somebody didn’t create the American Flag than our country wouldn’t have a symbol to represent the United States of America. Like when we won the war we showed a symbol that the U.S. won the war and somebody else didn’t win the war. The American flag is one of the most created things that somebody has ever created for our country.

My Sports Passion
My passion is sports. I can’t go out without playing sports I would die if I didn’t play a sports. I like baseball, basketball, and football. My favorite sport though is basketballbecause it’s fun and exciting. I like to play sports because if im mad I can take it out on a baseball, run through somebody, or score off a kid. Then I feel better with myself and I don’t get mad anymore unless something else gets on my nerve and I have to take it out on something. Sports are fun to play and a good way to express your thoughts and feelings about something. I think everybody should play a sport wether their good or not, just so you have something to do. If you want to do good or get better you got to practice in any sport you play. I always pick yp a basketball to work on my dribbling, shooting, and passing to be a better player. When it’s baseball season I always practice my swing, throughing, and base running. When Its football season I pick up a football and have a pass with somebody, practice my catching, and jukes. Spots are really fun to play when your bored and have nothing to do.
Christmas
Christmas is coming and I’m very excited because I get to see all my family members and giving presents to my family. My favorite Christmas movie is a Christmas Story because it is really funny and if you haven’t seen it go buy the movie as soon as possible. Every year my family watches it on Christmas Eve. Christmas is one of my favorite holdays
A Quote that I like
One quote that I like is ” Faling to prepare is preparing to fail.” I like this quote because before I take a quiz or test I always think of this quote to prepare for my quiz or test so I don’t fail it. What it means is that if you don’t pay attention, don’t study, and not prepared for your test you are already going to fail because your preparing to do the wrong thing already.
Who is Hero
A hero is somebody who is willing to risk his/or her live for somebody else. A hero is also somebody you can look up to like a police officer or your favorite sports athlete. A hero can be anyone.
Who I think will WIN the World Series!
I think the Phillies will win the World Series Because I don’t like the Yankees. The Yankees stink in my opinion. The Phillies will win because they are beast. They have a lot of speed and power and hardley make an error. My favorite player on the Phillies is Jimmy Rollins because he is fast, a good infielder, and a very good hitter. He will lead the Phillies to victory aganist the New York Yankees. The player I hate the most on the Yankees is A-ROD. He has such a big mouth and he is a bad baseball player, in my opinion he is. Phillies will defanitly win the World Series
Phil’s Blog!!!!
I like Phil’s Blog because it is very cool to look at. He has sports, food, cars, Xbox 360, Obama and other cool stuff. It also has some cool games like, ping pong, car game, bubble game, and thats it. I also like Phil’s blog because it isn’t just on one topic it has a lot of interesting stuff on it like random lollipops.
