Dutchtown Video Class : 2/4 CTE

Football players are susceptible to great injury from the time they start playing until the day they retire. Ronnie Lott has every reason to believe that he has CTE because he has endured great physical pain throughout his career. My personal opinion on this article is that men that are in the football league have to notice the signs of injury and act on those signs immediately, before it is too late.

Dutchtown Video Class : Freewrite 2-2-15

Rob Kardashian is reportedly in an invested relationship with Blac Chyna. According to E News, he is sticking by her through her drunk and disorderly charge, as well as, drug abuse. The RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) is allowing certain thresholds of music streaming to be counted as album sales, therefore, making them eligible for platinum record awards. For example, fifteen thousand streams of an online song, equal ten album tracks.

Dutchtown Video Class : Michael Jackson 2/1

My opinion of this article is that the media wants to portray Michael Jackson as a Caucasian individual, even though they are aware of the fact that he is not. Just because he received skin lightning treatments, does not mean he transformed into a white person. I hope that the producer for this British film reconsiders the casting and finds an African-American actor that is more appropriate for the role.

Dutchtown Video Class : Indiana Principal

It is extremely noble for the principal to do what she did in order to save the students that attend her institution. While it is sad that she lost her life, many young lives were spared and that is a miracle. Hopefully, if an accident like this was to occur again, another amazing person would attempt to prevent the outcome, even if it means risking their own life.

Dutchtown Video Class : Freewrite 1/25/16

New Jersey is buried in twenty-eight inches of snow and now that it is beginning to melt, their streets are flooding. The Chicago Bulls played the Golden State Warriors and lost terribly by approximately twenty points. Lastly, school was cancelled for multiple counties in Georgia this past Friday, due to extreme weather conditions. It has resumed this week and will stay in session, as long as the skies stay clear. 

Dutchtown Video Class : ANONYMOUS LOTTERY

I do believe that lottery winners should have the option to remain anonymous. Considering the world that we live in, it is a high chance that the prize winner (or their family) could be harmed due to their recent earnings. It should be in the best interest of the winning recipient to have the option of being unknown.

Dutchtown Video Class : Flint Water

In order to help the individuals who live in Flint, Michigan, we can send packages of water, provide medicine and install water filtration systems in every household in order to help with their struggles.

Dutchtown Video Class : Oscars Boycott 1-20-16

My opinion on African American actors boycotting the Oscars is that it is about time that we've spoken up about the topic. Watching black artist create phenomenal work and not be acknowledged for it is hurtful and upsetting. As a viewer, I would like to see the faces behind my favorite shows and movies be recognized for their hard work and dedication.

Dutchtown Video Class : Teacher Frustrations

I believe that all students should have a safe learning environment to thrive in and that the teachers at this institution should participate in an uprising, in order to ensure the safety of the students.

A man was killed in his home after winning the lottery and receiving four-hundred thousand dollars. His family is experiencing great grief and has expressed that "..no amount of money in the world would compare to getting him back in our lives."

Dutchtown Video Class : Powerball

If I won the powerball, I would invest the money in stock and pay for my education. I will put the remaining funds in a savings account and use it later on in life when it is time for me to make large purchases.


Dutchtown Video Class : Sanders Vs. Clinton

If I was a democrat, Hillary Clinton would appeal to me more because of the fact that I would like to see a woman in the oval office. For centuries, women have been portrayed as weak and unable to rule effectively, without involving there emotions. Therefore, as  a woman, I would like to support the endeavors of a female striving for excellence in America.

Dutchtown Video Class : Class Resolutions

As a student in this class, I would like to be more persistent and procrastinate less. I will make an effort towards getting projects in on time and making sure that they are executed to the best of my ability.

Dutchtown Video Class : Obama Executive Action

Obama issuing stricter gun laws for the United States is a major step towards making the streets in our communities safer for the population. If we crack down on weapon possession, we can save the lives of our counterparts, as well as, innocent bystanders. All in all, stricter gun laws will sustain life in our country and make it that much more comfortable to live in on a day to day basis.
