This disturbing story is about a guy who got kidnapped and sent to be a slave on a lower part of a boat different other african americans who die every day because of not having alot of food.Equiano luckly because of his age was on the upper part of the boat with fresh air and with no cuffs on.The worst part of this story is the reak of dying people.It just drops my hearts seeing or hearing people dying.So they were going to an island to work and before that they gave a feast of fish and otherthings.Whatever they didnt not eat they threw over the deck.

When grizzlies walked upright
The story that i just read was a spirtual story.The book is called when grizzlies walked upright.The book is about the grizzlie bears were the biggest of the animals that walked on earth. They were covered in hair and had sharp claws like they are today. But back then, they walked on two feet. The cheif then brought his family down to live on earth. The cheifs daughter wanted to talk to the Wind Spirit, but her father told her to be careful because the wind could take her by her hair and carry her away. She got taken away by the wind and landed in the scrubby fir trees. A grizzley bear then found her while hunting and brought her to his family. The bears raised her as one of their own. When the mother girzzley knew she was going to die, she asked the Sky Spirit to forgive her for keeping his daughter. The grizzley mother was instantly put to death and then he cursed all the bears to get on all their hands and knees for ever. That's why the Indians living around Mount Shasta would never kill a grizzley bear. Whenever a grizzley killed an Indian, his body was burned on the spot. And for many years all who passed that way cast a stone there until a great pile of stones marked the place of his death.

from journal of the first voyage to america
The passage that i just read was from journal of the first voyage to america by christopher columbus.It begins nine days after columbus landed on san salvador.Basically this story was about chris columbus arriving at san salvador and admiring the land that he will be sleeping for a couple of days, maybe weeks.He was looking at the trees and trying to find a place to sleep, find fruit or anmials like snake or spiders.Espically a place to go to the bathroom.Columbus found a aleo tree for if someone gets bitten by a anmial or poison ivy.The story was in a diary form that columbus had maybe written in.This reading made me think that i was in a movie or a documentry about christopher columbus and his voyage to cross the world.I think this is an important story in history because in 1492 columbus sailed the ocean blue.Also it was a big part of history and also a great accomplish that columbus made.
