Blog #5

1. We're planning to get our first documentary footage this weekend! Were excited to get started on our project and we're hoping that it isn't a flop. Hopefully people will appreciate our topic and our film, if not it will have been a wasted couple of months.

2. I enjoyed the Langston Hughes poem this week. It brought back memories of Carol Horswills English class my sophomore year because we read the same poem. I've been a Langston Hughes fan since then, I like the subtle angst that he inserts in his poems that represent the struggle of a young black man. I had read the poem before so I didn't really learn much but I enjoyed revisiting it. Hughes had such a distinctive style of writing so it's a nice change of pace from documentary readings...BORING! This poem was actually interesting so it was cool.
