Summary
The book We Beat the Streets by Drs. Sampson Davis, George Jenkins,
and Rameck Hunt is a true story. This book is about three boys who have
struggled throughout their lives to accomplish something. Like in the
beginning of the book Rameck got in a fight in his new school, Sampson got
his foot crushed by a 200 pound concrete slab crushed his foot, and George
just did good in school for now. Once they get to middle school their lives
cross and they become the best of friends but they get in trouble a lot. When
they get kicked out of class one day they go to pull a prank but the principal
and they said they were going to the library. When they get there they listen
to the presentation to Senton Hall and they all liked it and agreed to go. They
all got accepted into the school and passed with flying colors but they went
to medical school for different training. Sampson and Rameck went to
become doctors while George goes to become a dentist. When they all
graduate medical school, they kept in touch but got jobs in different places.

Inspirin
A passage that inspired me as this part on page 51 and it
reads” ‘Welcome young brothers,’ he began. He lined up
the boys, then showed them different Kung Fu moves and
how to relax by closing their eyes and breathing deeply.
Sampson inhaled and listened carefully as Reggie spoke.
‘Calm your mind,’ he said quietly.’ Forget about outside
problems. Concentrate your thoughts on a positive flow of
energy.’ ‘You gonna teach us how to fight?’ Razor asked.
‘no,’ Reggie replied’ I'm going to teach you how to live.’
(Drs. Davis, Jenkins, and Hunt pg. 51).

Inspirin
This inspires me because it is like saying that
in life fights are worthless and just live your
life. What I got out of this book is that it
doesn't matter how many struggles you have in
life. You can always achieve great things if
you work hard and never give up on what
you're doing.

Recom
I would recommend this book to anyone who
believes that working hard can help you in life
and that if they have a dream they want to
reach, don’t give up because the three
doctors didn’t.
