AP Lang & Comp Reflection Blog

This AP course was extremely informative and interesting.  When I first entered this course I was awfulLy concerned and nervous about what I was walking myself into . Many things was going through my mind, asking myself  am I going to be able to handle this course, or will I fail this class. It was a better outcome than what I excpected. This course extremely benefited me the most throughout my entire high school education.  My ability to write, express my ideas and thoughtsexpanded throughout both semesters.  The most interesting novel we have read was The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn because it was written in dialect and is an old fashion book. Throughout the year my strength in writing rhetorical analysis essays has increased. The rhetorical analysis essay was my favoritr essay to write because it is interesting how one letter, essay , or speech can have many rhetorical devices that people won't notice when they read it. The argument assay was the essay that I felt lack of confidence because I had to use my knowledge amd have the perfect evidence for that topic. The least interesting was the imitations, the passages was extremely long and my fingers felt like they were about to fall off, also the imitations didn't help the way they were suppose to becauase  I was to busy trying to finish the assignment. This course was stressfull but  helpful prior to my knowledge and education. I enjoyed this class

World War 2

11. The late 1940s saw an improvement in the rights and respect accorded black Americas, thanks largely to the important role they played in World War II.  What were the principles for which  the Allies fought in World War II?  Why did that war specifically cause white Americans to rethink their own values and racial policies?








The World War II was a global depression.  War helped end depression; disappear unemployment; let women enter labor force for first time. The principal Allied Powers were Britain, USA, USSR and China. They formed an alliance by the entitle " Declaration of United Nations " in 1942 forming in to the "United Nations".The black Americans played a large role in the WW2 , they fought and served in spite of racial tensions and freedom . That war specifically cause white Americans to rethink their own values and racial policies because the war abolished racial discrimination in the armed forces and eventually led to the end of segregation .
