for readers who dont have access to the article here it is http://jezebel.com/5896408/racist-hunger-games-fans-dont-care-how-much-money-the-movie-made

After reading this article numerious times, it really pisses me off the way all of a sudden The Hunger games is racist.. like why cant this stop already, its not a racist book or movie. Just because Rue, Thresh and cinna were black and died.. like all of a sudden its racist because they were black and died. like seriously give me a break. Its Pathetic honestly. Like if black's want this racism to stop then why always saying oh that and this is racist. rue did a great job at her part i dont think anybody could have done it better, white or black. same for Thresh and Cinna. The movie was great, one of the best i have ever seen. Then people have to ruin it by saying all this bullshit about racism, trust me there was no racism intended. it made $155 million dollars in the opening week. this should of not been brough up and who ever brought up this discussion to begin with. shame on them.

BLOG 4: FOCUSING ON A CHARACTER FROM THE HUNGER GAMES!

For my final essay i am asked to be one of the character from the hunger games as if i was them i gotta write about my feelings as that character. really anything that comes to my mind. I decided to choose Katniss Everdeen. I chose Katniss Everdeen because she is my favorite character in the Hunger games and she is the most fierce and this essay can be alot of fun. My plans for this final essay is to act like I'm Katniss from the past, present and also the future. those are my plans for the final essay... I want to accomplish alot more than just a few scenes, i want the reader to vision whats going on in their head.. sort of like what Suzanne Collins did in the Hunger Games. The biggest challenge for me to accomplish this, will be trying to think like Katniss and what Katiniss will do, shes a very complicated girl, to me that's going to be the biggest challenge.
