Dewayne Michael Carter is the Best Rapper Alive. For many reasons. Such as his sales out every time he releases a new cd, he does other types of music other than rap, and lastly he can act.
When I say he sales out every time an I mean it. For example “The Carter 3” was nominated for a Grammy and sold millions in the first week its was released. The Carter 2 did the same and also the Carter. In 2007 he was featured on mostly every track and mix tapes.
Another reason why I love Dewayne so much is because he can rap well and he does rock music. On the new cd “the rebirth” it’s an rock album he plays his guitar in the background of each song.
Lastly he and double threat. He can rap and act. His new movie will be coming out soon

school diversity

Syid Boyd June 10, 2009
Camden Middle Literacy
Our school is very diverse. It is diverse in many in many ways. The two ways we are diverse is because of the N.J.A.S.K test scores, and racial. The reason why our school is diverse in the N.J.A.S.K test scores is because not every one scored advance proficient, partial proficient, or proficient. In fact only 3.7% of our school scored advance proficient, only 49.9 % of the school, and 46.9 % of the school scored partial proficient.
Another way how our school is diverse is racially. Statistics show that 85% of our school was black. 15% of our school was Hispanic. I can’t believe that it was true but less than 1% of our school was white. But no one our school was white except teachers.

Diversity in the news

There is a lot of diversity in the news.when you watch the news some people are portrayed as bad people.

Example:When you see black males on the males you think that thet probably did something bad.When you think about young black males you thind sagging pants and other bad stuff.When a young black kid does something sucessful and it gets on the news, everybody is excited.


Question 2-"Diversity in the news"

The way I see diversity in the news 2 different ways. One way is the way the media portray people. Such as young African-American boys they say their all gang bangers or drug dealers if they have dreads and wear white tees. If it’s a white man on the news the media is going to say that he just invented something or just got rich. Another way I see diversity in the news is when a child kidnapping goes on if a white child gets kidnapped the whole squad team but if a black or another ethnic group gets missing there would be only 2 detectives working on the case.

I see more black men then black woman doing crime. As them robbing the bank. As them shooting people. Also as them steeling cars. I saw the news is not diversity.

Question 2-Diversity in the news

Diversity in the news is not right because when they talk about black people theres no good thing about us but when white people are on the news its always something good about white people.FOR EXAMPLE, yesterday i was watching channel 12 news and they had a white lady describing the suspect and she said he might was tall,wearing one of those white tees,AFRICAN AMERICAN,dark skin,black boots,baggy jeans,and he might of had dreads.But when the white man went to court for sexual assaulted a 10 year old girl he was innocent and everyone was cheering for him.

Questinon 2 Diversity in the news

diversity:means difference.
The diversity between the newspaper and a media news that the newspaper is a puplication, usually issued daily or weekly printed on loose sheet of paper that is folded infomation, editorials, articles, advertiement. And media news media news means you can actually hear whats going on instead of reading about whats going on in your local area. for ex:TV is a type of media news, radio. it also tells on channels 12, 2, fox 5, eyewitness news no channel 7, 9WOR, CMM.on the radios is HOT 97 kiss FM WBLS 105.1 which sometime you can also hear about your celeberties and so on. also 98.1 . they are almost alike because they talk about the same thing.

Q2-how do we see diversity in the news paper

We see diversity in the News Paper when people talk about winning the super bowl and then they start talking about a massive flu verise thats killing everybody. I saw divesity when i was watching the News and I saw how they where talking about celebertys how they were sucssesfull on there career. Then they started talking about poor people and how they're kids where dieing but they never did nothing about it. But yet they paid and rised money to built a new stadium.

Question 2-Diversity in the News

how do we see diversity in the news paper and other news media? we see how there are different stuff. for an example how the flu is going around in mexico. and every one is dieing. but they do not talk about how it is effecting the people in newark. and i just would just like to say that the news paper and other news media have diverity.

What Divesity means to me

The state meant "we are a diverse society with diverse people, traditions, beliefs, and ideas." means to me that we are all different, we all think negative things, and that our beliefs are the opposite of what is should be. Also as our traditions. Diversity to me means the state of fact of beinig diverse; difference, and unlikeness.

Question 1-What does diversity mean to me?

diverse:differing from one another
This statement means that this society is different from everybody else because some people is diverse with there traditions, beliefs, and ideas. ex: my family celebrates, new years, easter, independence day, holloween, thanksgiving, and also christmas. my friend cee cee doesn't celebrate any of these traditions because they are diverse they do not celebrate any hoildays because they are beliefs. In my community we help each other out and maybe once in the while we may have community service for those who need. Also in my school during lunch time people dont pray before they eat and it makes me diverse from them because my mother always told me to pray before i eat. Also people may not pray before walking the streets but i was always pray before walking out the door. my beliefs that i tell my family that i love them before to go anywhere and also before i go to bed and i also pray before i go to bed.My beliefs makes me diverse from people because they may not do the thing i do they might do it different. thats my meaning for diverse

Question 2-Diversity in the News

There is alot of diversity in the news and newspaper. There is diversity in wars. I say there is diversity in iraq. Also I say there's diversity in the U.S. too. I say this because iraq beliefs in something. But the U.S. beliefs in something else also. It is diversity because its between both of them. Also, the news is diverse because of the people i was watching TV and the lady was saying people that dress so there showing there self but the other lady saidthat an whore. so that proves to you that people have different minds.

That means that we have different beliefs and ideas, when somebody have an idea of something, somebody else might have an different idea.

I think diversity means descrimination like from black from white or girl from boy. It really means difference and heres how it happened to me.

I was playing with my cousin and he called me a negro and were both the same race but he's lighter than me. I retaliated by calling him a negro which I knew was wrong but I said it anyway because I thought it was a joke. But up untill this day I still can't get my head off the word negro.

Also animals are diversity because they are different type.

Types of diversity

Diversity –the news is a good way to look at diversity. You see black people when the do some thing good. Right! They make it seem like that person is the best black person ever. They make all other black people seem nonchalant. Which is not fair? If a white man comes a does something great has better than the black man. When he didn’t do any thing that great.The black man finds a cure for something. the white man wins a marathon. WOW! How Great!

diversity in news

The way I see diversity in the news 2 different ways. One way is the way the media portray people. Such as young African-American boys they say their all gang bangers or drug dealers if they have dreads and wear white tees. If it’s a white man on the news the media is going to say that he just invented something or just got rich. Another way I see diversity in the news is when a child kidnapping goes on if a white child gets kidnapped the whole squad team but if a black or another ethnic group gets missing there would be only 2 detectives working on the case.

Question 2-"Diversity in the news"

diversity in the news

many kidnappings go on everywhere but theres a diffrence the thing is when a blac male kidnapps a person they get up 20 years why because if the person says that he or she was rapped than thats more years . But if it was a caucasain male than if the person says they were rapped there would be doubt ;the jury would have to investigate . There are many diffrent racese on the news of the news casters .There are a diversity of news sections for exzmple weather , inflation etc.

Question2
What types of Diversity do you see in the news (people,topics,viewpoints)

The types of diversity that I see in the news are strange things.Like when a black children gets raped or gets tooken and they call the cops and don't really do much.But if it was a white child and they tell the cops the whole cop force will go looking for him or her.That's reallyt not fair at all.We all should be equal and not be treated like that.

question 2

when black kids are lost and something.when they go and tell the cops they dont do anything.but when an white kid goes missing the cops and the whole team goes out to find the white person.and that isnt right.

Daquan Pitts C.M.T.S 5/25/09

Homework/Diversity
The meaning of diversity is a different kind, form, character trait, family, commmunity etc. Long story short it is something that is different. I have a diverse life, infact everybody have a diverse life. Nobody have the same traits or the same features. I have a different name, different personality and different traditions. Our world lives on being diverse. If we live in a place where people have the same life it would be a disaster. I believe that nobody have the same life though people may have similar traits. For example a son might be tall like his parent s or even grandparents. This is my meaning of the word diversity.
