Have you ever been stereotyped?

By Anonymous

All of the time I am categorized by being "white", but what does that really mean? When people look at me they don't ask me what is my ethnicity they just say I'm white, or make the assumption that I am. Though, the truth is, I'm not. I am a mixture of things and I don't just see myself as being white. It's not a bad thing to be white don't get me wrong but it's just not me. I wish people would ask me what ethnicity I am, because I would very explicitly tell them, but I guess I can't have it all. So, whenever someone chooses to call me white I'll just simply tell them what I see myself as, and if they can't except that then they're not worth my time.

Freedom Writers Review!

Freedom Writers was a great movie. It had everyone's attention and was very eye opening. The movie really made you appricieate life and what we have. For example  many of these kids were very articulate and would say nearly everything that came to their mind which was really hard at first. Another example in the movie is that almost all the kids showed some sort of problem in their home life wether it was violent, homelessness, or even having choosing between family members. The movie showed that it was hard no matter what the situation is and that no matter what it's always better to try your best rather than just give up like many though of doing. Overall Freedom Writers was a amazing book and was an excellent choice by the teacher to show it because of its many lessons.

For example, a ocean isn't just a ocean to him, its another magical world that leads to a new adventure. He sees things differently like this throughout the story though his family is not so supportive of this. In the book you really see Nafalti grow and you have to read to find out what adventures he goes through and what his family says about it. This book overall was very intresting and very out of my comfort zone. I never would have pictured myself reading this book but I am glad I did! To see how the characters developed and story developed was amazing and very well written. It had twist and turns and was overall a good read. It goes through so many obstacles and yet tells ...
