After attending Winnacunnet High School and spending the day there, we traveled down towards Boston to visit the Teen Empowerment centre. It's purpose is to meet together and discuss issues that affect their community.
Since we arrived, everyone has talked about how great America was regarding integrating religions in society. Teen Enpowerment showed all of us how similar we are to the Americans however it is race that divides their society and not religion.
After some games to get know each other names we talked about the big issues of both of our communities. We had a lot of similar problems like drugs, racism, poverty and teen pregnancy.
For dinner, we went to an All American diner place called Applebees. I had steak and chips and it was beautiful. It was my first time and I really hope I will be going back again.
Overall, the day was brilliant as we finally saw the reason for being in America, sharing that 'yes, America is good with dealing with different religion but race is a big problem'. Applebees for dinner topped off one of my most favourite days in the USA.
