What is Family?
Written By Shai’Niece Lewis What is a proud family? Is it a family that says and knows everything? Is it just the action you take? Or is it, that one thing that has no reason? Family to me means more than D.N.A. A bloodline. It's about everyone that helps and believes in everything that you do. It’s about friends, old and new, white or black. If they were with you through ups and downs, they are more than family. It is something you can't misplace. It’s family.
Discovery of My Dream
Written by Melvin Lassiter
I first started to think about being a lawyer a year and six months ago. My brother, James, was put in jail because someone had shot a gun up in the air and cops ran in his house and arrested him. He was wrongly accused. They held him with no proof or evidence for a year. When they finally went to court he beat the case. They tried to hold him for a few months before releasing him. This all happened in Oil City, Pennsylvania, Venango County. Ever since then, I wanted to become a lawyer so that no one will ever have to go through what my brother went through. First, I will go to college and study criminal justice. After I graduate from college, I am going to law school and will take the bar exam to become a lawyer.
