Oprah: welcome Sadiqah, are you nervous?
Sadiqah: yes sorry I’m shaking I’m not use to anything like this
Oprah: it’s ok just take a deep breath relax and tell us a little about you
(Sadiqah closes her eye’s inhales, and exhale, and then open her eyes)
Sadiqah Jihad: ok I’m 18 yrs old; I live north Minneapolis Minnesota with my loving mother Amey Douglas and two dogs Snow and Bella. I have 4 siblings Angel, Shakeel, Fateemah, and Laqresha. I walk the halls of Mpls south senior high school. I’ve loved Oprah for forever. I love coming home watching Oprah at 4:00 P.M on channel 4 everyday of the week.
Oprah: so what about if someone’s homes watching something before you arrive?
Sadiqah: Oprah that’s really funny because my big sister favorite Show is law in order in which also comes on at 4:00 P.M. We fought a couple times over it but no matter who’s home or what someone is watching I will always get the big screen T.V at 4:00 P.M
Oprah: that’s really funny. I really didn’t think my show was that serious to fight over.
Sadiqah: seriously? OPRAH I will kill for your show.
Oprah: yes I don’t want to hear about nobody getting sent to jail over my T.V show
Sadiqah: Oprah you just don’t understand
(Oprah laughs and puts her head in her hands)
Oprah: ok Sadiqah so what’s your favorite Episode?
Sadiqah: everyone is.
Oprah: you’re so sweet
Sadiqah: thank you, but all your shows are awesome. The two I really enjoyed were when you found out about your sister and brought her and your niece and nephews on your show. The second one is when you were going around giving everyone gifts and especially when you surprised your best friend on her birthday.
Oprah: so tell us why you wanted to attend my show today?
Sadiqah: honestly I wish I can attend your show every day. You’re the best I swear I love your personality. Your heart is full with blessings. You’re always giving and setting your mind on others more than yourself. I wish my heart was big as yours. You inspire me the most.
(Oprah get teary eyed and hesitates to speak)
Oprah: you leave me speechless sadiqah thank you so much. Ok everyone were going to take a break and be back in 5

Writing challenge #4
Being arrested and just unsure since you’re out at night you just start assuming other things. Really you can be just getting arrested to see if you knew anything about the group of people you were seen with earlier or since you matched the description of some other person that they were looking for, or a old crime you committed and forgot all about.
Usually when you get arrested the police warn you bye saying, “Anything you say will be used against you”. Asking the officer what did you do is what most likely everyone ask, but when you start saying I didn’t do nothing, that wasn’t me, and so on it gives the police officer thoughts that your guilty of something. You will be better off saying nothing at all unless the officer asks a question. Saying too much is way worst than saying less.
My cousin was arrested last year his first year being in MN for playing basketball in the park. The officers just slammed him on the ground while yelling “everyone get on the ground now”. All my cousin said was “sir this hurts” and his face was kneed to concrete. I sat there on the bench since the girls were told to sit still, and watching all the blood surround his face. After my cousin and I was searched and told to leave we started walking straight home and he continued to say he didn’t feel good while I was speed walking talking to myself repeating Minneapolis police aren’t right and thinking my mom is going to go crazy. On the block of my house my cousin fainted.
I told my mom part bye part while she sat crying in the emergency room. “All he said was sir these cuffs hurt” and you can see all blood. My mom has a case on them police officers. If im not mistaken she’s still going through with her lawsuit on them. I’m not allowed to play out on the back of parks anymore, and my cousin moved back to Vegas with my grandma. Whether my cousin said nothing he was still knocked to the floor, but saying to little is enough and the same as saying too much and was treated even worse.
