so at the end of the book matt and his adoptive brother are out on the field playing ball then matt remembers the boy's name he says he shall never forget back in vietnam. This matters because he remembered a name that he couldn't in the beginnings. This is still valuable today because there are some people like this right now today who have no memorization of loved ones and they might be in s war.

In my book I'm reading all the broken pieces. this book is similar to an article I'm reading about. both have to do with kids having to move to a totally knew country and that can be hard for some people. in my book the boy has to go to America because the country he lived in (vietnam) was in war and it was not a safe enviornment to live in. this is similar to the syrian war in the middle east right now because many refugees are having to flee there country because they are at war. so they have to move to a totally new place and have to adjust to the way they're living.
The book I'm reading is called All The Broken Pieces by Ann E. Burg. what is happening now is that Matt is remembering when everyone was rushing to get out of vietnam. people were were in total chaos there. everyone was trying to get on a plan trying to escape from a war that is happening there. This book is connected to the vietnam war because this book is talking about how it happened during vietnam."in the choking mist and wailing dust, through sounds of whirring helicopters and open prayers,i hear her.you cannot stay here, she says. Here you will be like dust.it is connected because this kid had to go to a new country and some refugees moving to new countries and they have to adjust to knew standards. both people have points of view in the first person because people have to move and they were just in the war and had to move to a new country to not get killed. in both the book and historical event they both have to move from their home to a new country and that could be very difficult.

We are trying to help out the homeless people in wake county and we can do this if we help donate by giving food cans and etc. In Wake county there are lots of homeless people roaming the streets, especially in the city. In wake county alone there around 1,098 homeless people. This website shows lots of good information about how many people are homeless around North Carolina. 0.12% of wake county's population is homeless. http://demography.cpc.unc.edu/2013/10/24/homelessness-in-north-carolina Issue We should help these homeless people because they have a huge effect on our daily lives and economy. We often have to pay high taxes to pay these because when homeless people get here or sick and go to the hospital, and they have no money to pay for their bill. If we volunteer to help them then we will not have to use our tax money to pay for them. This website shows you how to help. http://raleighpublicrecord.org/news/http://raleighpublicrecord.org/news/2015/06/22/wake-county-sees-nearly-25-decline-in-homeless-population/2015/06/22/wake-county-sees-nearly-25-decline-in-homeless-population/ Facts & How to Help In Wake County, 1,116 people were counted in a one-day survey of homelessness in January 2012. Over the course of a year more than 4,000 different individuals experience homelessness in Wake County. Most people in our community find themselves homeless because they are priced out of the housing market http://www.wakegov.com/humanservices/housing/services/Pages/homelessness.aspx. This issue affects most of wake county because thats a lot of people being homeless. This is a big issue because many people are struggling to find a home they can afford. Also if the prices of houses begins to rise then more and more people will not be able to afford a home and the homelessness rate will increase. Our goal is to help volunteer to help the homeless. A way we can do that is by help with shelters. You can do this at the Salvation Army. https://www.salvationarmycarolinas.org/wakecounty/programs/social-ministries/women-and-childrens Why Help Homelessness has been a big part of our community for a while. This issue affects people can not afford the stuff we need to live on a regular basis. These people can not find homes to leave in and also they can not afford to leave in the apartments and pay the rent. We should find more affordable homes for people that can afford them. If we keep increasing the cost on homes then more and more people will start going homeless and that would be a big problem.

I am interested in this because this has happened across the state and it hasn't really happened here. we are affected by this issue because this happened in one of the wake county schools and could have happened at martin. people should be concerned because the girl didn't do anything yet she was abused pysically. we could protest to end police brutality. animal sheltersanimal shelters.there are many problems in the NC community. its about animal and animal shelters. i am interested in this topic because there are still many homeless animals out there. people are interested in the because there are so many animals who are hurting out there. others should care about this topic because animals have been going through much trouble and are hurting. we should go out and help animals and go out and take care of them
