A day with Immigrants

By not attending school or showing up at work it  is just a sign  to show would the  people think of us if we were gone. Well today i did not attend school not because i didn't want to but to show support to the immigrants out there.For me i know what it is to know someone who is living with fear because my friends tell me that while they are at school they fear getting that I love You Take care and be strong text. I think i would be scared also if i got that text because you wouldn't be able to do anything. So by boycotting today  it means a lot to me and others so that is  why  i support it.

Everything is a Remix

  • Remix- to combine or edit existing materials to prove something new
  •  Where does it  go? The term remix is  originally applied to music but as well can be applied it anything
  • Who? Anybody can remix anything!! 
  • What do we mean when we say the word remix is when you take something already existing existing and combined it with something else and create something new but can still see some original  pieces of what we started 

Music as Literature

Music and literature are similar because they are both a mixture of some thing we listen and something we can see.Also they are composed of the same structure (words).Music and literature are something that can be a  cultural meaning or just telling a simple short story in a different way.

Immigrants in our land

 Theme:Expectations vs reality
Tone:sad,lonely
Devices: Imagery, symbolism
Free verse because it doesn't go together like a normal poem
My Impression: I thought it was serious and very calm.I liked how he used immigrants as prisoners and his land as jail.Also on how immigrants they have exceptions and later on those exceptions become nothing to them they are worthless dreams they had.
