A New Era in America 2006 Dec 09 2011

"The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it work- whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified. Where the answer be yes, we intend to move forward. Were the answer is no, programs will end. And those of us will manage the public dollars will be held account, to spend wisely, reform bad habits, and do our business in the light of day, because only then we can restore the vital trust between people and their government."

 I interpret  this quote as no the American government is not working because the president is  attempting to pass laws to extend unemployment for families, health care, tuition and retirement funds in this recession and congress only pass laws they want to see in affect now.. President Obama is fixing a country with a economic crisis since 2007. Due to differences between political parties laws that need to be pass are being rejected due to the greed of the republican party. they cannot put the needs of the working class American first. it is sad to see our country falling behind while other countries are moving forward away from recession. The crime recession is intolerable forcing the average person to steal to find food and provide for their families how can we trust the government went they are failing us tremendously. we need vital trust that at this point is not there. Only then we will be able to sleep fine like the president and congress leaders. At this point were not willing to spend any unnecessary money and not know how we going to eat, sleep, or keep our head above water. The government is not willing to decrease taxes at this point, our money supplies is low, and debt crisis. Perhaps the country will go into another recession before we get bailed out hopefully it won't happen but at this point it looks like a reality

Yes

November 18 W.E.B DuBois

1. African American is more sensitive to the gap between our inner essence because spirituality is within us but our external appearance judge your character verses what on the inside.
2. poor white and black bonded together to escape and rebel so our history is inseparable.
3. The color line is the most pressing problem of the 20th century according to Dubois since it can create hostile behavior in a work place that is majoity white with a black boss. it shape characteristic of one;s race
4.The south is considered a marginal region due to the holocaust of enslavement to our children, both psychological and sexual our ancestors experienced.
5. Low wages damage the work ethic because it creates oppression racism by keeping black separated you can't make capital without racism since they go hand in hand.
6.Church is a important institution in the African American communities because it creates spirituality and a sense of belonging they built strong organization within the church..
7. Fatalism is a belief that the event occur due to faith.
8. sensualism means the character of one who is sensual and since their both a belief fatalism does not justify one behavior to be sexual.
9.the emancipation of the Jewish nation from Egypt. In the latter part of Genesis Jacob's whole family had settled in the Goshen area of Egypt. This family of seventy people was the root of the Hebrew nation - the twelve sons of Jacob. the bible shows family packing up and moving to be separated from an entire community one can get a sense of inequality.
