Time and Time again in school we are told Thomas Edison created the Light bulb, but the fact of the matter is he didn't. In fact, there were many minds used in the creation of the Bulb but the only one people are ever concerned with is Thomas Edison, the reason being that he made the first-ever lightbulb Per Se. What most people don't know is that Alessandro Volta " developed the first practical method of generating electricity, the voltaic pile. Made of alternating discs of zinc and copper — interspersed with layers of cardboards soaked in saltwater — the pile conducted electricity when copper wire was connected at either end". Then in 1806, Humphrey davy made an electric lamp but the light burnt out too quickly, and some improvement had to be made which In 1841 Frederick DeMoylens put a burner in a closed glass case. and so for a long time, many people kept on creating and recreating the "light-bulb" until Thomas Edison finally perfected the Light Bulb

RACE Race. no not Track and Field but one of the most uncomfortable issues to talk about. When someone brings up race most of us look away or some of us leave the area, but for some of us who it affects, the African American's, the Latinos..etc immediately are furious or angry, because of the stigma that comes with the color of our skin; Racism. George Edwin Taylor. A forgotten African American Presidential Candidate, the reason he is forgotten is because he did not win the election. He is not Barack Obama, first black president in the history of the United States. George was born in 1857 to a slave man and a free woman. He had originally worked as a professional Journalist before deciding to dive into politics. George   " gained distinction, according to the Tacoma, Wash.,  Times  on Aug. 17, 1904, as a leader in the Republican national convention of 1892, "to which he was an alternate delegate-at-large from his state."  People took notice of that so in 1904 T

My name is Emmanuel. I'm a student at Georgia Gwinnett College and I'm from Dacula. I love to make music when im not at school.

Andrew Jackson. Many of you may know him because he was the 7th president of the United States, or that he was a lawyer, or the fact that he owned slaves, or other reasons, but the specific reason I am writing this blog is to inform you on how and why he was impeached...no not put inside of a Peach but charged by the Legislative Body. Andrew Jackson was a Lawyer, who then became a senator in 1861, and when the United Stated split he was the only senator to stay with the union, and in 1862 President Lincoln appointed him governor of military in Tennessee, then after the war he was made Vice President in 1864, he then took over presidency when Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in 1865..yes bad times. Back to Andrew Jackson, as you may know Andrew Jackson was a supporter of slavery which comes into play because as one of his first acts of presidency he delivered a lenient reconstruction plan for the south who were defeated in the Civil War, which the mostly republican congress, didn&#

HOOK - The Fact that only 1/3 of students who begin college will not graduate Within 6 years is mind-blowing.  I didn't know that it was this bad, I would have thought at least 50% would graduate within 6 years, but now that I see that it is 1/3 it makes sense if you think about it. BRIDGE- Why would some students not graduate within the 6 years given,  there are  so many different reasons for this, here are some of them;  People might say the reason for that is, maybe early parenthood, or if " Life" hits people hard,  people might have to take a break from school because frankly they just need a break . Or they have early children that they have to take care of and cant maintain a job and school at the same time, they have to work overtime, and extra hours, just to feed the kids, and to pay rent, and other bills such as gas, light, water...etc. Then others might say that the people were just lazy, and they didn't want to do it in the first place, that if th
