Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 101 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing, reading, and thinking on a weekly basis in an informal setting.

Little Rock Nine
The documentary was well put together and after watching the short documentary about little rock nine I noticed how even though it was pretty short video it contained important information and details on this important time in history. What caught my attention was towards the end when the student of little rock nine who was being interviewed was talking about a white woman who was seen yelling at the little rock nine students with much anger in past photos as they entered the school. He explained how this once woman filled with anger was now a changed person. I have never heard of that and I found that really interesting, he also explained how this woman had apologized for her actions and asked for forgiveness because as a child she had grown up in a family who was very racist and that was all she knew. Overall the documentary itself was really good and I enjoyed watching.
