Lynching Mini-Project Sam Balka

  1. Wow. The poem was really well-written. But, aside from that, in terms of the historical aspect, it was interesting how you took a different perspective and did a child who was lynched. I never thought of that. Also, in doing so, it was nice how you were able to bring up the subject of how the child had much life to live and "discover" his identity. Lastly, your poem had an excellent ending because you talked about the transformation of the society and how it had impacted the world.

  2. Really nice job Sam! I loved how you made it from the perspective of someone talking about a child, I think it made it a lot deeper and more powerful. I really liked the last stanza where you talked about how the world is full of hate, I think it explains a lot about the time back then, and also now. Good job(:
