My Beautiful Island
My beautiful island of Antigua, where I was born and raised.
365 beaches, one for every day of the year.
Land of sun and sea that once hold the enslaved.
And thank God for emancipation, for we don't have to walk in fear.
My daughter smokes- Alice Walker
This reading was a little hard to read. Despite that, it was informative. The story ran smoothly as it describes how the main character discovered her daughter was smoking to explain where the habit came from. I like how she included that she too was getting into the habit of smoking but stopped after she encountered a severe soar throat. Her daughter knows that smoking kills, she was what her grandfather went through but she was already addicted and hoping she can overcome the addiction before it is too late.
