Shakespeare-Macbeth

"To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death
Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more; it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing" (5.5.16).

National Geographic video Response

Winter Vacation Assignment-BLOG POST

Directions: In preparation for the argument essay we will be writing after the break, please watch the National Geographic video on MS 13 gang on either of the following 2 links (I found that the YouTube link is better since there are no unwanted interruptions). Then, post a comment (1-2 paragraphs) to one of the following prompts and a response to someone else’s comment (1 paragraph) on the blog.

Video links:

Prompt (choose one): What role does self-esteem play in the individuals in the video joining the MS 13 gang and making decisions that are life-altering?

                                                                or

                                           What choices do you see the gang members making in this video? How do these choices create conflict?
