Part B
What I learned is that African American's do not graduate on time or do not graduate at all. African Americans and Hispanics are in the same boat. What I find to be something crazy is that there is more websites that talk about African American males before females. To me I feel that there is a chart of power and who is the most powerful. And how I feel that everyone sees it is that White men are on top,White women, Black men and then Black women. And from reading these articles and websites more black men drop out or get left back then black women. So if African American women go far in school and African American men don't how is that African American men are higher then African American women.I mean everyone one may not think like that but I do feel that this is the way that people make it look like. But I am going find more on way is that we drop out or get left back vs why white people don't.

  1. Bryanna,

    I suggest you re-read assignments and then cut the instructions part (generally a paragraph separate) onto your blog.

    You've got good sources here and an interesting analysis but not an annotated bibliography that would help significantly help you write a paper.
