I know that this is supposed to be listed, but I only really noticed two commonalities in these readings, so I decided to summarize them. One was that humans, no matter how well off we are or what race we are, are all interconnected.  And the other was overcoming obstacles in their way and keeping […]


Audience Activity 8/28
