the title of this article is Ending gang and youth violence a cross- Government report. the person that wrote the article is Duncan smith and the date of the article was in November 2011. The article is mostly about ending gang violence and how its not good for kids to gang bang, in life when you start gang banging, you start hanging with your friends and stop going to school and stop getting your education you will never get anywhere in life. The reason why gang bangers don't get any where in life is because they have to worry about their friends and being safe, they have to worry about not getting shot in the streets. Yes i do agree with the author, the reason why i agree with the author is because i have a lot of friends that gang bang and i don't like seeing them in this type of violence because they friends and family could either die or get hurt

Malcom X
I chose this particular person because he inspired many black people. a man who indicted white America in the harshest terms for its crimes against black Americans.one of malcom x ccomplisments was in December 1953, just a bit more than a year after he was paroled from person, malcom become the minister at the NOI's boston mosque , temple NO.11. The following year he also became the minister at Temple No.12 in philadelpjia and Temple No.7 in New york.His second accomplishment was In 1957, Malcolm found the NOI newspaper, Muhammad Speaks.Malcom X third accomplishments was in Beginning in the 1960s, Malcolm was invited to participate in numerous debates, including forums on radio stations in Los Angeles, New York, Washington. He was invited to universities, such as, Harvard Law School, Howard University, Columbia University. Also, Television programs like "Open Mind," "The Mike Wallace News Program".
Malcoms life was hard and terrible,was a member of the universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) and a supporter of Marcus Garvey and this got him in troblem with the KKK.Malcolm later recalled: "When my mother was pregnant with me, she told me later, a party of hooded Ku Klux Klan riders galloped up to our home in Omaha, Nebraska, one night. Surrounding the house, brandishing their shotguns and rifles, they shouted for my father to come out. My mother went to the front door and opened it. Standing where they could see her pregnant condition, she told them that she was alone with her three small children, and that my father was away, preaching in Milwaukee." The Klansmen warned her that we had better get out of town because "the good Christian white people" were not going to stand for her husband "spreading trouble" among the "good" Negroes of Omaha with the "back to Africa" preachings of Marcus Garvey. so therefore saying malcoms life was not an easy one.
