Today's Activities
I reviewed an interview between my pastor, Frederick Douglas Haynes III and Donald E. Lacy Jr.THey discussed the parameters of Haynes's work, from church to politics. Haynes expressed his point of view on the problems that continue to hold the African Americans back. His commentary gives a more dynamic and real perspective on my project. I am looking into contacting him to be my mentor.

Today, I made up an exam for Calculus. I still have not found a judge, unfortunately. The people I have contacted have not responded to me..

More About Colorism
Continuing research on colorism and general racism. I learned some of the politics and complexities of racism. As it turns out, in-group racism is more damaging than racism by other ethnic groups.

Colorism & Scholarships
I got a scholarship to Prairie View A&M University!!!!! :)
I also worked in my application for the Jackie Robinson Foundation Scholarship.
I read an article about colorism within a race. It was an article by collective scholars discussing why there are differences among blacks due to color. I learned that many dark-skinned blacks are largely at disadvantage in hiring, marriage, financial standing, etc. Also, colorism is more widely recognized and acknowledged by women rather than men. This article contributes to my research findings.
