About Me


A reminder for myself. 
I am entering GGC fresh out of high school and I really am looking forward to the new year. I have yet decided what my major will be, but from many sources I've heard I have some time. I work at a mom and pop diner, and I absolutely love my job. Aside from working and school, I spend most of my time with friends and family. Currently, I live on my own and I'm just trying to get by but it can be difficult at times. I aspire to become a teacher, either high school or college level and that's why I'm here. Math is what I initially wanted to teach but I'm leaning more towards social sciences. Hopefully to be successful enough to travel around the world more and live comfortably. I'm young, but I don't plan on having kids, or just not until I'm stable with my own life, so my drive to be successful is primarily for myself. That might sound conceited but I am a Leo. I'm also weirdly obsessed with potatoes.

Delilah Calvo Professor JoAnne Harris English 1101- Section 30 1 April 2020 Racial Profiling "Racial Profiling."  Gale Opposing Viewpoints Online Collection , Gale, 2020.  Gale In Context: Opposing Viewpoints , https://link.gale.com/apps/doc/PC3010999266/OVIC?u=ggcl&sid=OVIC&xid=199eedaa. Accessed 1 Apr. 2020.             Racial profiling is a societal issue that we have been dealing with for many years and even now it still is present. Racial profiling is when you suspect someone of committing a crime based on their stereotypes tied to their race and in the United States this is a huge issue. We see it in law enforcement, education, our jobs, when you travel and just everyday life it unfortunately happens. It’s dated all the way back to when we passed the Fugitive Slave Act in 1793, it set a course of other acts to come into play about putting restrictions on a specific race. Racial profiling was high in New York back in the mid-’90s when they had the

BONES

Our skeleton is made of up 206 bones by the time we die, but when we are born we about 94 more bones (7 ways Kid Bones Are Different From Adult Bones). Seems odd that we end up with less bones but why do we lose so many? Where do they go? All good questions to ask the experts.  Bones serve as a great function for the human body by  providing mobility, support, and protection for our organs (The Basics of Bone in Health and Disease). They undergo this process from the beginning called modeling where it allows growth of the new bone at the same spot of the old bone, essentially forming one whole new bone. This process typically happens during the early ages of life, where soon when a human turns about 20, all their bones have reached their peak mass, therefore the process of remodeling starts (The Basics of Bone in Health and Disease). Remodeling is when your bones essentially repair the damage that has been made to them. Remodeling happens every 10 years and is essential to bones

Fate for Taylor

Image
With Black History Month coming up, it's important to recognize political figures that made an impact in the civil rights movement. Before Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, or Rosa Parks were civil rights activists and writers such as W.E.B. DuBois, Booker T Washington, and George Edwin Taylor, who many people don't know about. George Edwin Taylor was the first African American to run for President back in 1904, and I believe that Taylor was meant to run for president. He began a chain of movements and inspired other African American political activists to get more involved with the evolution of African American rights.  He was an orphan when his fate began because he was luckily placed in a home where they encouraged him to pursue a future in writing and politics.His foster father, Nathan Smith, was able to get him to go and get an education. Which helped him in the future because he was already writing for newspapers etc. Taylor was involved in local and state governments an
