Sweatshop Post

The argument in the article I read was that Nike had sweatshops all around China and Indonesia.  And that the way the workers are treated is terrible.  The workers only get paid $1.25 which is barely enough for them to live on.  The workers get attacked just for messing up.  I think this is just wrong that the workers get treated like this Nike makes more money than they really need why can't increase their workers minimum wage and stop hitting them.  What was surprising was that they make stay outside in the sun just for messing up and how much they get paid.

The argument in the poem is that the person feels like their just a lifeless machine.  The poem talked through the person's POV and explain how it feels for him or her working in a sweatshop and not living. The poem is different than the article because the poem is more vivid and use similes the article just says the workers are abused and have low pay.   

Knightley & Son Summary & Genre

Knightley & Son is a book by Rohan Gavin about Alan Knightley and Darkus Knightley.  Alan has been in a coma for 4 years one day he suddenly wakes up.  And Darkus meets Uncle Bill a strange man who claims to be a friend of Alan.  Alan then gets Darkus and they try to figure out why Alan was in a coma why a book is making people crazy.


Knightley & Son's genre is fictitious mystery.  I have read books like this they're usually pretty good.  There is a few things I dislike about the book especially how long it is and how confusing some parts are.
