Joshua commented on the post, Do you believe that it’s possible to change poverty and racism?
Dear Tyler,
I am Surprised by your post because now I know things I didn’t know before. I am an emigrant and I go to school with people from other countries and cultures and in my lifestyle there is not a lot of racism. Maybe in the time of Tupac or in that place there was a lot of racism. I didn’t know this before because my first language is…Read More -

Dear Joshua, Your post was touching. I feel your pain of struggling. I never felt the pain of hurt that much but I heard you. I also have starved before. I know that pain. This is a heart touching story and i know this will always be a reminder to keep your head up.

Joshua commented on the post, short story
Dear Humera,
I am curious about your post, “short story,” because I want to know why you chose the Brooklyn Bridge in your photograph. How do you know this place? Do you go a lot to this place? I like this place because it makes me feel comfortable. This place is the best place for thinking. The girl in your dialogue says that she feels goo…Read More -

Dear Genesis,
I am interested in your post, “first time in New York” because not all people help people. It’s very difficult for them to speak their own language, because some people are racist against hispanic people. One person in your story decided to help this person as he behaved when he was going to eat. When I was in New York for t…Read More

Dear Joshua:
I am excited by your post, “My immigrant Story,” because you went through a lot just to have a better life. I think you are very very strong for going through all that. Not having food or living on the streets makes you stronger because look now you have more things and help other people. I love how you say you help people on the streets because you already went through that and you don’t want them to be there in the streets too.
One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is: “I saw some poor people in these communities and I helped the poor people by giving them some money. I don’t want anyone to live like I lived.” I think this is great because you help people who need it. It’s good that you’re so generous and kind because that makes you stronger as a person.
Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next, because I like this type of history. They make me very touching. They make you reason a lot.
Samantha
