Good morning Professor,
I hope your day started out well. I'm writing to you because I encountered problems with my car this morning. I tried everything, I even tried jumpstarting it and it just will not start. I already looked at the syllabus and I already read what was assigned for today. Is there anything else that I should to keep up with the course? Please let me know I would greatly appreciate it. Hope you day goes well. Thank you.

Sincerely,
Cindy Valadez

Passage Based freewrite

"I guess it is easy for those who have never felt the stinging darts of segregation to say wait. But when you have seen vicious mobs lynch your mothers and fathers at will and drown your sisters and brothers at whim; when you have seen the hate-filled policeman curse, kick, brutalize, and even kill your black brothers and sisters with impunity, when you see the vast majority of your 20 million Negro brothers smothering  in an airtight cage of poverty in the midst of an affluent society; when you suddenly find your tongue twisted and your speech stammering as you seek to explain to your six-year-old daughter why she can't go to the public amusement park that has just been advertised on the television, and see the tears welling up in her little eyes when she is told that Funtown is closed to colored children, and see the depressing  clouds of inferiority begin to form in her little mental sky, and see her begin to distort her little personality by unconsciously developing a bitterness toward white people; when you have to concoct an answer for a five-year-old who is asking in agonizing pathos: "Daddy, why do white people treat colored people so mean?" when you take a cross country drive and find it necessary to sleep night after night in the uncomfortable corners of your automobile because no motel will accept you; when you are humiliated day in and day out by nagging signs reading "white" men and "colored" when your first name becomes "nigger" and your middle name becomes "boy" (however old you are) and your last name becomes "John" and when your wife and mother are never given the respected title of "Mrs." when you are harried by day and haunted by night by the fact that you are a Negro, living constantly at tip-toe stance, never quite knowing what to expect next, and plagued with inner fears and outer resentments; when you are forever fighting  a degenerating sense of "nobodiness" -then you will understand why we find it difficult to wait. There comes a time when the cup of endurance runs over, and men are to longer willing to be plunged into an abyss of injustice where they experience the bleakness of corroding despair. I hope, sirs, you can understand our legitimate an unavoidable impatience."

                                                                  Letter From Birmingham City Jail
I like this passage because it really explains and gives us the feeling  that maybe we shouldn't be able allowed to say anything. Yeah it is easy for us to comment or say something about something that we have not lived ourselves. Even today as a society we judge to much, we look down on the homeless and frown upon them because they are just being lazy and they should do something with their lives. But the truth is we don't know anything  about them at all. What if the wife filed a divorce and now he lost everything? What if he has been looking for a job but has not been able to find one? We shouldn't judge, take a second to realize "What if that was me? Would you still think the same way you do now?  The chances are probably not. And in this case how did they expect blacks to act a different way when all they did was humiliate them. They had been waiting patiently for years for something that was promised to them and to all of the people by the Founding Fathers. The whites pushed them past their limits until they had no remaining patience. So for whites to say that they should wait was in a sense a little disrespectful because how would they know how it felt if they had never been in that position.
