3rd post.

Audience: My audience is mainly towards college students. to get into more detail, it is more towards African American college students since it is mainly about African Americans.

Timing: Of course my topic is timely because there are still African American college students and stress stills occurs this day...and will most likely never leave.

Investment: I'm invested in this topic because I am an African American college student myself and i sometimes question my stress levels and how it would compare to being in an HBCU and in the school that I am in now. I also want to find some interesting things about coping with stress so I can apply it to my life. From my high school writing experiences, I feel that my papers weren't self objected so we can be able to understand both views to any given subject instead of our one-minded opinion. In college, I feel that you get in-depth in your classes and not just with writing. You take the time to really think about what you're doing and really have a voice. 

I have pretty much seen the same things being said through my research. They all have the same message that african americans experience more stress than white americans. 

Everything that I have researched is something new that I have learned. One big thing that I have learned is that African American students are being stressed at the pressure of "acting white" to be successful. I never knew that because I, myself, dont go through that. 

I commented on Brittany Broner's blog post. the third one.

Love,
