Now is Time, Undocumented Immigrants poem

My Quote..From Martin Luther King Jr.

" Now is the time to open the doors of opportunity to all of God's children"

This quote was important to the audience because in those times, not all of the people were able to do what ever they wanted. The African Americans weren't able to have a good job. To hang around White people. Or even use the washroom when ever they wanted. They were always the last at everything. This quote made them happy because now they are going to have the doors open, to do what ever they want. With out nobody telling them nothing. Everybody was going to be treated the same and have the same rights.

This quote was important to me because, because everybody should have the same rights. Everybody should have same opportunities to do anything they want to do. We are all God's children. It don't matter if we are different colors, different race, or different in anything. WE ARE ALL GOD'S CHILDREN!!!!!!!



A Dream Deferred
by Langston Hughes


What happens to a dream deferred?

Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore-- And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over-- like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?




What happens to a undocumented immigrant?


Does it worry a lot about what will happen to him or her everyday
like getting arrested?
Or getting separated
like not seeing your family for a long time.
Does it scare you
like a dog chasing you?
Or do you complete your American Dream
like any other family?
Maybe it is something that is in my head.
Like something you worry about.
or does it make sense?

My poem is about how I wonder, what the immigrants feel like, most of the time they are probably scared... But i still wonder.

Yes to UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS!!!!!!!!!

Yes the undocumented immigrants should be allowed to stay here in the U.S. Everyone should have freedom to be where ever they want to be. They move because they probably don't have a good life where they use to live. Their economy may be really bad. Everyone in this world is the same, we just don't have same looks. But how would the world be with everybody looking and being the same? Boring Right!




Many people don't want undocumented immigrants here in the United States. But how much will they have to spend to get most undocumented immigrants out of America? 10 million undocumented persons currently in the country and 500,000 successfully cross the border each year. The treasury estimates the cost to be at least $206 billion over 5 years ($41.2 billion annually), and could even be as high as $230 billion. Assuming that 2 million of the 10 million would leave on their own.

Didn’t all our ancestors immigrated here too? Every family must have had someone that immigrated here, but they don't really think about it because they may already have papers. They should look back to their past. Barack Obama supports this idea too. In one of the speeches he said "People have to remember not everybody who came through Ellis Island had papers that were perfect, you know. Now everybody who came across the Canadian Border, you know met Regis test Citizenship. Part of this country has to renew and republish it's self constantly."

I Accomplished THEM!!!!


Well since the biggining of the year I wanted to accomplish many goals. From all of them I got higher rank. but it's not the rank that i expected. I wanted to be the v-ball captain, but i couln't. I finally wanted to get good grades, and pass all my classes , which i did. Right now I have A's and B's.
Well I'm going to to keep trying to achieve all the other goals that I have. Probably by getting good grades I'll get a beter rank. I will never stop trying.
