The Summer Seminar is a program that I would be really looking forward to if I were to be accepted. The experience of a cadet's life is something that I would wish to experience. As a student at Montville Township Highschool, there are no ROTC programs, so being a part of this would be a new experience for me. Personally, I am always eager to learn new things and broaden my horizon. What I would expect from the Summer Seminar if were to be selected to attend would be building leadership skills and being able to push myself to the fullest potential, while meeting new people and building relationships with them. It would be a pleasure to be a part of this program not only to build my leadership skills or to see my determination but to see who
Freedom Summer was a nonviolent effort by civil rights activists to integrate Mississippi's segregated political system during 1964. It raised the consciousness of millions of people to the troubles of African-Americans and the need for change. Americans all around the country were shocked by the killing of civil rights workers and the brutality they witnessed on their televisions. For nearly a century, segregation had prevented most African-Americans in Mississippi from voting or holding public office. Segregated housing, schools, workplaces, and public accommodations denied black Mississippians access to political or economic power.
In order to talk about the Freedom Summer project, we first have to identify it’s roots and the history behind it. Before the Freedom Summer project, there was the civil right movement in which thousands of African Americans protested for equality. Equality didn’t mean the term referred in the court case Plessy vs Ferguson “separate but equal.” African Americans wanted to end the era of segregation, this include not having to use lower quality public facilities than whites, not having to give their seats in a bus if a white person wanted to sit there, and the right to vote. With the help of different civil right activist such as Bayard Rustin, Jo Ann Robinson, Martin Luther King, Rosa Parks, and all the people that marched and protested against
In the Summer of 1964, the Mississippi Summer Project, also known as Freedom Summer, was organized by several Civil Rights organizations such as the Student Nonviolent Coordination Committee and the Congress on Racial Equality. The event that caused the start of Freedom Summer were that many African-Americans were not registered to vote, this was because the southern states had implemented literacy tests that were unfair and could be interpreted differently, and Poll Taxes which were ridiculous amounts to pay ("Freedom Summer"). Other causes include the case of Plessy Vs. Ferguson, which stated the “Separate but Equal” clause, and also Racial segregation. Freedom Summer Volunteers included White Northerners, and the organization was made to focus on the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party, Voter Registration, Freedom Schools, and Community Centers (“Timeline: Freedom Summer”). There was a need for the Freedom Summer because Many African-American People in the south were being oppressed by Literacy Tests and Poll Taxes.
June 21, 1964, the Freedom of Summer! Civil rights organization included the Congress on Racial Equality and Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, which a voter signing up to drive, or Freedom Summer, Aimed to increase voters in Mississippi. Freedom Summer has most of black Mississippians and over one-thousand out of state white volunteers face abuse and harassment from Mississippi's white population. The Ku Klux Klan police did a series of violent attacks towards them. About a hundred white college students had help cofo register voters on November 1963, and several hundred students more had been invited to expand the voters project in the Freedom Summer.
The summer of 1964 also known as the Freedom Summer was a time of social change in Mississippi. The Document Project 26 in Exploring American Histories a Survey with Sources (second addition) highlights the success and failures through primary sources. The Student of Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) Understood the magnitude of such a movement and outlined the goals of the Freedom Summer in the Prospectus for Mississippi Freedom Sumer (1964). This document outlines the main missions of eliminating racial oppression by registering blacks to vote, and the organization’s complimentary mission to establish freedom schools for the black community.
During spring break I am looking forward to going to Florida. I am looking forward to going to Florida because I cannot wait to get in the ocean and on the beach. Also I am looking forward to getting to sleep in and not have to go to school. Also in Florida I am looking forward to hanging out with some friends from other schools. Something else I am looking forward to is being in the warm and in the pool. I also cannot wait to get tanner than I already am because I seem pale compared to what I normally look like. Also I am actually looking forward to the plane ride so I can watch my movie and eat some nuts and pretzels. I also cannot wait to get to wear shorts and not be cold. Another thing I am looking forward to during spring break is being

Behind Wrestlemania, SummerSlam is arguably the biggest pay-per-view event for the WWE every year. We analyzed every SummerSlam dating back to 1988 and categorized each title match over the 27 year history of the event. Some interesting trends came to light through the visualization of the matches over time. The WWE Championship has been contested every year since 1992, but changes hands only one out of every three matches. The Intercontinental Title, on the other hand, changes hands over 70% of the time when up for grabs at SummerSlam.

Most people opted not to return to Summerfest on Saturday, given it was July 4th- and the smaller sized audiences were quite noticeable. The weatheron Saturday was just as refreshing as the day before, and the fact that the festival wasn't at full-capacity made it a lot easier to move around to each show. Despite not having a large crowd, the performers on Saturday put on very memorable shows.

It started out as required community service. Fifty hours of required community service for four years. The odd times I helped out in my school’s pre-K led to an opportunity to volunteer in the after-school program for kids every weekday, and that became my plan for almost every day of my high school career.

The foundation of the Lutheran church traced back to 1847 when Saxon and other German immigrants established a new church body in America, seeking the freedom to practice and follow confessional Lutheranism. In being originally named The German Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Missouri, Ohio and Other States, the name was shortened to The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod in 1947 on the occasion of their 100th anniversary.
