Read from Of Plymouth Plantation.


Political Cartoon: Immigration

















Reflection:


In "Of Plymouth Plantation", it discussed the difficulties and accomplishments that the people had and how God helped them while trying to reach Cape Cod. While on the trip there was a young man who thought he was best and nobody was better than him except God. But the thing he fail to realize that he wasn't better than everyone. So God had too break him down and teach him lessons about how everyone are equal in their own ways. Finally they reached Cape cod through the will of almighty God. Even though they had to go jump over many hurdles, cross swim through many seas and fights many fires to reach Cape God. After reaching Cape Cod they had to figure out how to supply for themselves. That's when the fight began. These Indians were determined to defeat the enemies. I think fighting is not always the best solution but sometimes you have do things that you dont like. After the fight the men were scared, they didnt know if there was going to be a round two or a sneak attack.

Diary

Dear Diary,

God, if you are out there we really need you. I don't what we are to do. I am so tried of this man boosting about how he is better than us. What this man doesn't know is that God created us all equally. The man that thinks he is better than us just caught some type of disease. This should prove to him that he isn't better than us. God is probably punishing him for thinking that he was better than us. We have finally reached Cape Cod. The new place is so strange. We really where we are going to sleep, what we are going eat and drink. We have just spotted a river, which means water and maybe fish. We have to build some type of house or camp so we can sleep. We are learning many things on this new land. We have seen some some new people. These people are wearing feathers on their head, that's weird. They dont seem very friendly, they are looking at us as of we did something wrong. This must be their land we have just settled on. I think we have just started a war between these people. The fight is on. We just help defend these weird looking people against some more weird looking people. We just defeated our opponents.
