We are done filming. Walker is going to load the footage onto the MTN computers today. After that we have to edit and after that we will be done. Everything seems to be going well.
This story is young minority children growing up in a Chicago slum in the 1960's. The story is told by Martin Luther King Jr. He remembers the violence the most vividly. He also explains how they are taught to be violent. He explains how the peaceful teachings of community leaders was the most valuable gift these kids could receive.

The group is still working together pretty well. We finished our trailer on time and are now gathering more footage for the documentary. After we finish shooting we will continue editing.
It seems like the man in the poem "A Bed for the Night" is asking for money and support for the homeless on a winter night. He is alone on this mission. What he does alone will not change the world but if he inspires others to do the same maybe he can.

The project is going well right now. Everybody in the group seems to be fully aware of their responsibilities. We just finished interviewing and we have all the b roll footage we need. Walker has footage of some of his old concerts so we have good video and sound. We will try to go back to the School of Rock to get some extra footage and ask a few more questions. I am very satisfied with where we are right now.
In "Fellowship" by Franz Kafka there is a narrator telling the story. The narrator explains that there are five members in his group and that there is another who wants to join. They do not want to allow this for some reason that they really do not explain.

We are just beginning the interview process. Walker has set up some interviews for early next week. He will also be filming some B-roll footage. We are in the process of putting together some possible questions for he interviews. We are planning on editing next Friday during class. I like our plan so far. We have all been involved in discussions about our project almost on a daily basis.
In "English B" by Langston Hughes, Hughes describes how all things he observes and all things that affect him are parts of him. Even though he and his professor have many differences, they influence each other. Hughes tells us that he is the only "colored" person in his class. He says that even though he and his classmates have come from different backgrounds, the shared experiences of this class has brought them together.
