1. in my essay i took the musical part of the issue. We discussed the look on rap music and if it has/had an influence on criminal activity on today's life. Amal took the scientific route about the conversation and decided to lean towards that rap music is the cause of the violence. Then on the opposite was side there was Willie, Willie took the historical route and said that rap music inst all bad. music came from the slaves when their native tongue was lost due to slavery. The person riding the fence was Erik, Erik was making valid points on why and why not rap is causing violence. He also bring the paper to its conclusion that if rap music is causing violence then blame all the other music genera that have sexual conduct, drugs, and profane language.

2. writing a essay like this using dialogue is harder than people think. The writer have to think about how each person would react to the person before or after them speaking. Also making motions that would make since but not take away from the big picture is a very important key. Another thing that is different about writing a dialogue essay instead of a normal/ formal essay is that the writer can have fun and bring the characters to life.

3. In my essay i used agree when i would speak with Erik mostly. The character Erik didn't  lean to one side more than another. Erik and Amal agreed that not all rap music is good for their children to listen to. Willie and Amal disagreed when i asked if parents should be responsible for what their children listen to Amal said that parents should be responsible and Willie said that there is no way parents could know what their kid is doing 100 percent of the time. Complicate came in  my essay when Willie said that rap music said that rap music is for the black community risking the fact that they might bring racism into the picture.

4.The best part of constitutive feed back i got was from home. I had a friend from home read my essay without telling them what it was about or the background then after reading i asked questions like "what were they talking about" and " who was leaning towards one side to see if anything was unclear that i could fix it.

5.I believe that the strength of my paper was the characters themselves and showing how they felt according to the issue

6. Something that could be improved in my paper was adding true facts. I wish i would have put more facts into the paper to make it flow right and still sound professional.

7. How could the instructor help me. If i would have turned my ruff draft in then he could have told me what all i need to fix and what to improve.
