Hey guys, im doing my hoemwork in Texas Gov't right now, im about to curse my teacher out cause she's , infact forget about her.

The question is though, can anyone help me find an interest group on the net tonight? I see that some people are online now. God please direct them here.

After tonight this thread will be useless. Chinani, HELP?? Please!!

I've been searching for interest groups and i can't find any. It can be anything, as long as the group has some sorta stuff i can print that'll tell me what they do in the group and blah blah.

Is Nairaland an interest group? I think it is, but then, i need a paperwork about the IG. Nl is kind of BROAD! It has sub-interest groups under it. I want like a website that is based on just one thing. HELP ME PEOPLE!

An interest group is a group developed to advocate for people in some way. It can take the form of an advocacy group or a special interest group & other forms. (I'm more familiar w/ the special interest group concept.) More information:

I found Africa Fighting Malaria. I heard about it in college and saw them speak on campus. I think what they are trying to achieve is very easy to understand and convey. It also has an international appeal & the appropriate amount of controversy.

Did the interest group have to be about Texas Gov't?

Nooo, not really, it doesn't have to be about texas gov't.

Im looking through the site u gave me though. Thanks.

yeah i saw the wiki definition and ish. We actually learnt all that in school, and my textbook tells alot about it.

I think i found it. That's probably all i need.

I can get the five W's and H on it. U know, who, what, when, where, why, and how. I can get something off of that.

Here's more if you need more politically oriented ones.

The Cato Institute
Human Rights Campaign
Center for public integrity

Thanks mochafella. But i think i have more to write about that malaria thing. I've been wasting my time looking for something politically oriented. And i suck at politics.

Thanks alot guys. I appreciate. Chinani, u r a life saver. For real i was almost giving up. I need to start typing now. Bye guys.

This thread can be locked now seun.

I see you Mochafella. . .trying to upstage me. . .*put my nose in the air*

Careful with that, you might fall into a hole if u don't look where u are going

Ohhh boy. I turned it in this morning. When i asked her if i did the right thing, she said yeah. Okay so that's out of it.

I was soo frustrated last night. Then i remembered i had some smart friends online. lol,

Ohh and mochafella, urs didn't go to waste either. A friend of mine in class is doing his homework right now based on some of the "politically oriented" stuffs u gave. He couldn't find anything to do, so i told him there was a link on here and blah blah. Anyways point is, he's doing his homework and he has 3 hours to be done. lol

Awww, well done Lady. You must feel like a burden has been lifted off your shoulders now.

i felt that way last night. I still feel that way, but i got another homework. That's what i get for taking texas gov't durring summer.
