“The following news article is 100% true and
no lies in it. You guys reading this better not
take this as a joke!” said Baby Hermann yes-
terday at the press conference. Two people
who have in their periods made significant
changes get in contact. We interviewed them
and both seemed very interesting to each
other. From the 1950’s Robert F. Williams and
from this age Eminem.
Robert F. Williams is an African American who
was the first to use violence to get their rights
back. He was once leader of the National
Association for the Advancement of Colored
People in Monroe. His violent means got him
out of office, but he founded the Black Guards
and used violence against the KKK to protect
their people. His book written in Cuba was
named Negroes with guns and influenced
many African Americans during those years to
promote violence.
In the other hand there is Eminem. He brought
up an unusual rapping style and changed how
the world viewed hip hop and rap. He inte-
grated his music to the “white” community. His
unique style makes him one of a kind in the
entire history of music.
The first question Baby Hermann brought up
was a harsh one, “What do you think of socie-
ty today boy?”. One answer only, “I am
shocked and astonished. I can not believe we
achieved this without violence.”
He then soon started to compare many things
from now and before.

Baby Hermann steps to ask questions
Williams it must have truly
been a dream come true. He
can see the better United
States he dreamt of.
Afterwards Eminem
and Williams spoke to each
other almost like friends as if
they talked to each other.
They were sitting at a Star-
bucks café. He was dumb-
founded when segregation
was gone. He could not be-
lieve it. Most astonishing of
all, is that their were African
American musicians who be-
came famous. “I am glad I
came to the future”, he said.
A strange view indeed, for an
African American and a
White be sitting together. For
Eminem meets Robert Williams Ro ger Rab b i t co .

Political changes
Social
my wife can not see this
beautiful scenery in front of
me. I wish that Martin Luther
King Jr. could have had seen
this kind of place too. Even if
we had different approach-
es we had the same goal.
It is great that the
United States is still getting
involved in international
affairs. The progress made
in this area is astronomical.
One of the changes
I wish to see now is an Afri-
can American president.
Back then it was Eisenhower
and now it is Clinton.
Something funny I
should say is that the presi-
dent of now is having lots of
affairs. That is one thing I
also wish to change. It is
impacting that a United
States president would do
that.
We were without
rest fighting for our rights
and the Red Scare had just
happened. Now we see a
new type of fear, drugs.
Now we see we have equal
rights. I am glad that Social
Security is still good and it
has not stopped.
On thing that is
amazed me is that now
practically every adult can
vote. Back then only a se-
lected few African Ameri-
cans could vote. All the ra-
cial segregation now is
gone.
This is a huge pro-
gress we made. It is a shame
In our time, the middle class was beginning to grow. Now I see that the
middle class has expanded drastically and has become stable. The most astonishing
thing is that now there are color televisions. In the 50’s everything was black and
white and the star was Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley, but now we see tons of
celebrities. I personally like the show Simpsons it is really funny. Another big change
is that now the percentage of high school graduates increased dramatically. In my
time almost no one got high school done. One sad thing is that people are getting
fatter and frankly it scares me. I also like the new types of music like the hip hop
becoming now popular and Eminem's rap.
Some similar thing is that people started to move to southern states in my
age and now people are evenly distributed around the country both North and
South. Cars is still a symbol of social status.

International Relations/ Diplomacy
It is sad to see that there are
now terrorists against the
United States. Specially last
year that the embassy of the
United States was bombed in
Kenya and killed 224 peo-
ple.
The biggest changes I saw
regarding international rela-
tions was that the Cold War
ended. Back then the United
States was involved in the
Korean War, First Indochina
War and the Vietnamese
war.
Although the cold war has
ended I am glad to see that
the United States is still in-
volved in foreign affairs.
It is still astonishing that
many immigrants are coming
to the United States. I see
that Asia is still in need of
help because of the recent
Asian Financial crisis in 1997.

Economical Changes In my time General Motors became the first company to earn more than 1 billion dol-
lars, it is no surprise since for the first time in history there are more white collar workers than
blue collars. The obvious result will be the increase of supply and demand. One interesting
thing you might not know might be that Mc. Donald was created during my age and boosted
junk food economy. The massive Labor Union of today was also established in my time.
I got to give my praise to this president, the unemployment is less than 4% and I
heard it was the greatest boost in economy in history. I am astonished that the minimum wage
increased to 5.15 dollars an hour. An interesting concept also came up. This thing called inter-
net is becoming global they say. Americans are purchasing from online stores and websites and
increased the economy to another level.
An interesting phrase also came up, “consuming” as never before. It is astonishing that
we reached this heights in less than 50 years. Traveling became really popular. It was very
rare to travel back in my days and increased tourism nation wise and globally. I am glad to
see that the United States is being stable economically to the extent of having a healthy econo-
my. I think the economy will never crash now. Lets hope nothing bad happens.
