    My Essay

        The three most 

        South central is a pretty cool place. There is a lot of stereotypes about south central but all them stereotypes are not true. I think South Central have a lot of good people. People from south central work really hard because they want to succeed. People from south central are the best because they have a lot of dreams and do there best to accomplish them !

    The three most important events that have had the greatest impact on making south central, LA what it is today are Watts Riots, LA Riots, and Crack Epidemic.

    The first event that has made South Central what it is today are the Watts Riots. It made a big impact because thanks to the Watts Riots South Central changed for better. It is important because these led to building locke, opening MLK Hospital, and starting South West College. If the watts riots would of never occurred i would of probably be going to another high school far away or I would of never had the best teachers that i have here in Animo Locke II !

    The second event that has made South Central what it is today is the LA Riots. The LA riots was more about violence and anger and it didn’t help the community. People were rioting because they were mad and frustrated of recent events. It affect South Central because 53 people were killed, a lot were injured, and there were over 1 billion in damages.

    The third event that has made South Central what it is today is the crack epidemic. The Crack Epidemic started in South Central, and spread throughout the US. It had a terrible effect. People became addicted. This led to families being broken up into pieces. Many people grew up without one or both parents because someone in their family was addicted. Later, this would lead to the end of the epidemic as fewer people started using cocaine because they saw the effects of it. These wasn’t the fault of the people from LA it was the CIA fault.

    Watts Riots, LA riots, and crack epidemic were the most important events that have had the greatest impact on making South Central LA what it is today.The LA Riots were a big controversy among the citizens. The Crack Epidemic made a lot of people more ignorant. Watts made South Central more diverse. I think that these events are important because they’re what makes South Central what it is today. This will definitely help South Central become better because it will help us learn from our past and let us learn to grow for our future.

    “Without goals, and plans to reach them, you are like a ship that has set sail with no destination.”

    From a scale 1-10 of been organized ill say 8.

    Most of my things are organized and because of that i think i do better in school because what ever work i need i have it on my binder. That’s why I have my homework all the time !

    At the end its kind of disorganized because my binder is full and the teachers don’t tell us what papers  can we throw away or not.

    “The right to do  something does not mean that doing it is right.”

    A bad decision and done it just because i could was when i hit my little bro. He was bothering so i just pushed him and socked him. I could of decide to hit him or not but i took the wrong decision.

    Taking these decision can affect me because i get in trouble for something i could have avoid.

    One thing I have the right to say whatever I want but if i do it other people might get upset and i might get beet up or in trouble.

    “Your family and your love must be cultivated like a garden. Time, effort, and imagination must  be summoned constantly to keep any relationship flourishing and growing.”

    It takes friendship, communication, and helping each other so that a family stay together.

    I help them out, spend time with them, and be with them in all type of situation.
