The Empire of the Sun

Long Way Gone was one of my best books ever because I learn so much of things just by reads this book. This book is about the war that took place in Sierra Leone.
The war was a conflict for the people in Sierra Leone and in this war many people were killed, murder, wounded and rape. Some women were rape during the war because sometime the rebel doesn’t care if you are their mother or who ever. During the war it was poor vs. rich, because if you poor during the war you can leave the country sometime but the rich always have it easier. If you were rich during the war you couldn’t get out, only rich people that had the opportunity to get out the country, by paying soldier or rebel that were on border patrol. During the war they have children soldiers, some soldiers were fighting for them freedom. Some children lost their family during the war. Some people were leaving the country because of the war that took place. Some children were traumatizing, hopped up on drug and wielding Ak-47s. Children become soldiers of choice and is estimated that their 300,000 children soldiers and Ishmael Beah was one of them. In the war some people when to the refugee camp, they take care of people who lost their home or family. They feed, cloth, teach and they give them a safety place to live. Also on the camp they have friend who can be like family to you. They have UNICEF that is the United Nation International Children’s Emergency Fund. They help children who are in danger and they give hem educate, advocacy, fundraising and support.

This topic was hard for me. I did not know anything about my topic prior to doing research. My group was not there with me. I tried my best to do good for this year but it seems like this year I did badly on my project. Next year I’m doing my topic on Liberia’s Iron Ladies because I know a lot about them. Iron ladies are the women that tried to help people and other women to have power in the country because during the war time in Liberia women was like animal to the rebels, rebels do anything they want to women in Liberia. There is no respect for women during the war. Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf, known as one of the Iron Lady’s, has claimed victory as the first women to be elected as a Liberia President. They also try to open schools for children and improve the water and plumbing systems. The reason why I’m doing this topic next year is to show that women, as well as men, can do the same things both politically, and economically for the country.

Chapter 5: I Wanna fly, pages 14-17

Reak down of Chapter:
Bigger walked towards the poolroom when he saw Gus and asked, “If he saw Jack?” Gus said, “ no” and then the two of them enjoyed a nice cigarette break while looking into the sky and dreaming of the various things they could do if they weren’t black. Things like flying high in the sky or having a high paying job to support his family.

Richard Wright wrote this piece to sell this perspective that black men are the “ INFERIOR” as well as the scapegoats for the violence that is caused in all society.
