USA in the 1930s

In 1930 blacks had no civil rights, land ownership was possible but very limited. For instance, if a black family "owned" land, the white people could take it if the saw a use for it. Blacks were not allow to serve in any political positions on any level.

The only jobs that blacks could perform was work in the house of exslave owners doing "chores" like cleaning washing and farm/ yard work or cooking. But they were not allowed to live in the exslave owner's house. Instead they were sent to live in a barn- like structure or a 1-2 room shack with no heat or lamps.

Also in the 30s, the marketplace in USA had a downturn. The economic crisys made people go find other jobs, as shown here, two guys that go to an farm/ranch to find a job or two..

Finaly done!

Well, done reading the book.. And now the tasks..

Now done reading chapter 3.. I ain't a fella thats reading, and like reading a book. But I must do what the teacher says. Actually I would learn more if I could see the movie, and don't have to read this book. But whatever..

"Lookin' forward to" read the rest of the book, and hope I will be done tonight, just becaue we have it to homework till tomorrow.. (DOH!!!!!!!!!!) I have other things to do when I`m not in school..

But what I`m really lookin' forward to, is when we go to the theater.. Cus' I ain't a reading-book-and-like-it-kinda-guy..

Of mice and men

In english class we have read the book "Of mice and men". The book is a good book, and it's really easy to read.. I have come to Chapter 3. We also maybe will see the movie "Of mice and men", and the plan was to see this act in a theater..

The book is about George and Lennie, that found work in a farm. The guys is a little afraid for the boss there. I hope that we can see the movie soon. Lookin' forward to that!
