MY AMERICAN VOICE
I believe speaking up is INDEED important. Us people, that speak up are the voice of those who are being mistreated,insulted,put down, anything along those lines. People who speak up are a sign that we care about other people that are being hurt emotionally,or physically. In my view of speaking up I would say I show a diffrent person than usual. I show anger, loudness,and explicit wording that I use. I'll speak up for anyone who's being hurt physically or emotionally.Its always good to speak up but not in certain cases. For example during our Labor Day weekend my parents and I took a trip to LA and visit family. We always make stops at liquor stores and grab some snacks and drinkson the way,that day we arrived to LA and went to a liquor store,we were ready to pay and we were waiting in line. Infront of us were young men,colored men. I noticed they were buying liquor under age without I.D's and one of them,on the left sneakingly stole some device to smoke and I did not speak up. What could have happend if I did speak up? What I have been thanked?, hurt?,parents in danger? I felt in this situation I did not want to speak up because I felt unsafe in the atmosphere we were in.  Many things were in my mind I would say in this situation, but what have you done? would you speak up or stay silent ? These are some things I would say about speaking up, know when it is the right time to speak up,use appropriate approachness to convince the aggressor that he is wrong and he/she should not go off on that person that way or any other situation.

A HUG IS NEARLY A GUN SPELLED BACKWARDS I completely agree with E.M. Foster's view because people will have a healthy, long-lasting life. I also think people are responsible for achieving these purposes.   I believe that E.M. Foster's view is a firm assertion. For instance, studies show that if we have personal relations we have a chance of having a healthy,long-lasting life spand. To add to that, studies have also shown people with no personal relations have a higher chance to catch a cold or flu and feel unhealthy.Other than, having a healthy and long-lasting life people also have better communication skills. Such as, people working together as a team and showing teamwork efforts. Also, understanding, suggesting, one another is a key idea of people improving their communication skills and having  better relations. Lastly, listening to gain full meaning of one another is the most important communication skill, people improve and learn from these personal relations.  Becaus

WE EAT SOCIAL MEDIA Notably, we can see from the author's use of diction,syntax,tone,and rhetorical strageties to develop his main arguments, are asserted well.   From the beginning, he introduces his tone of what he is feeling about this subject quite unsettled, this is because the subject is the Internet expanding to something more than electronics, social media, and "pictures" portrayed differently than they used to be. For example, before smart phones and the internet started to develop the only thing people had was "Polaroid or Developing cameras which you had to go through a process which took awhile and was quite expensive to have these images be developed",because of this later on you would show the family all the pictures in albums. While on the other hand, with phones and the internet being a drastic change to society it had a "different impact on us because we don't show our pictures like we used to we do it on social media ". Which t
