Today in human geo class we took notes on the countries in the world and their leaders. I found out that Enrique Pena Nieto had multiple affairs during his marriage, and he is now married to a soap opera actress since his old wife died. He also has a very low approval rate. Xi Jenping's father was one of the founding fathers of the communist party. His wife is an army general and a folk singer, and his daughter went to Harvard. Angela Merkel has been working in the government since 2005, and has been #1 on FORBES magazine for most powerful woman in the world for 11 of the past 13 years, and she's #3 for the most powerful person in the world. These are just a few of the many world leaders we discussed today, and we still have more to go.

                                                Human Geography                           Today in class we did a mini writing assignment on ancient Greece.    We had to provide background information on seven terms. The first term, agora, was a public open space in ancient Greece that was used for assemblies and markets, and it was also the center of spiritual, political, artistic, and athletic groups. Polis is political entities ruled by their bodies of citizens, it is the origin of the word politics, metropolitan, and poll. The Greeks considered the date 508 BC the birthday of the Athenians Democracy and it was the first time ever in human history that people revolted against their ruler.             Socrates...

                                                             Human Geography Class              Today in human geography class we had a long discussion on the recent protests in the NFL. The recent protests are kneeling during the National Anthem in an effort to show resistance towards the president of the United States, Donald Trump. My family and I have decided to boycott the NFL because they let these protests happen in the first place. These football players do not know how many lives have been lost in an effort to maintain our freedom and the protection of our rights. If people do not support the president, they have two choices which are 1. move out of the country if they dislike him so much, or 2. suck it up and deal with it. My parents did not like Obama, but did they go out and protest...
