<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">Attending
the annual anchor madness event relates to many things that we have been
learning in class. In many of the different readings that we have done in
classes. For instance this event made me realize that there really are rules
and codes of power. At <a href="http://ric.edu/athletics" target="_blank">Rhode Island College</a>, they had a special event that was
supposed to be for the different dorms to chant against each other to win
competitions to win different things for their dorms and to show school spirit.
The athletic department made this happen but rushed all of the activities. This
is because they had to bring out the sports teams, but mainly they had to
introduce the men’s basketball team. At this school the men’s basketball team
is like royalty. This team gets pep rallies, emails saying when they have
games, coach busses to every game including the games that are not even far
away and much more such as million dollar score boards. While others teams are
lucky to take the vans to the games. For instance one team had to take a van
cramming ten members and all of their gear to a four hour away game on top of each
other. To me this puts in perspective that there are rules and codes to power. This
reminds me of Kohn because since this team brings money to the school and
recruits, if they get nice things which are like saying good job, then they
will do better. Overall I think that going to this event showed me that Kohn
moments do not only happen in classrooms, it happens in everyday life to get
people to do certain things. If there is a school event to recognize the people
who live on campus, there really is not a need to bring out a team and promote
all their games and such as much in my opinion coming from an athlete at this
school. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 200%;">During
diversity week I attended the open mic night. At first I was apprehensive about
going to this because I have never been to an event where there was open mic
and poetry. Once I got there I found my seat sat down, and began to listen to
what all of the people had to say. I was most moved by someone who wrote a poem
about LGBTQ. As this person was presenting their poem, they talked about what
it was like having to keep everything in to themselves because they did not
feel like their parents and friends would accept them. Once this person told
their loved ones they began to realize how much support they had. I am now
looking back and relating it to Augusts, Safe Spaces. This is because we talk
about how this issue is not really brought up in classrooms or at school. This
school has a whole week dedicated to that which I think is amazing. “We contend
that including LGBT people and issues in curriculum is an important first step
toward creating safe spaces for LGBT youth” (August). Although this topic may
not be in curriculums in college classes it is still important that there is a
week dedicated to this. By this person going in front of a group of random
students that they have no clue who they even are, expressing themselves is a
great step for the future and I think that the school made this person comfortable
by letting them speak out. Overall I am happy that I went and I hope that this
school continues to raise awareness about this subject because you really never
know whose life it can change just by sitting and supporting them while they
explain their story. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Kohn states that teachers should not say good job to their students because it is very direct and it will lead them to think that they always need this support in order to do a god job on their work. Also if parents are saying good job after everything their children is doing at home, they will expect it at school but teachers can not give in and do this. Delpit says that they students might not learn certain rules at home but learn them in the classroom, I feel as though saying good job and similar terms at home relates to Kohn.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15882265283478074517noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2224705537051275573.post-79105549167982090292013-12-09T19:45:00.002-08:002013-12-09T19:45:14.898-08:00August EditAugusts piece relates to Johnson. This is because Johnson mentions that it is important to talk about certain subjects in classrooms. There are many controversial issues about LGBT and talking about this in classrooms. I agree with Johnson that these subjects need to be brought up. I feel as though teachers are afraid of what parents and students will think if they do talk about LGBT which should not be a problem.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15882265283478074517noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2224705537051275573.post-86145578377984801012013-12-09T19:39:00.000-08:002013-12-09T19:39:01.225-08:00Rodriguez EditI can relate Rodriguez to Collier because they both talk about the differences between languages at school and at home. In Rodriguez it talks about how the boy changes his whole life style and does not even talk to his parents anymore because of this change. This relates to Collier because it states that students should use their first language and then slowly start speaking English so that they are more comfortable and they can have a better time learning.

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #990000;">In school systems today schooling
is not how it looks like in the old fashion movies. Teachers are given curriculums
to teach, and these topics have to be taught at a certain time during the
school year, for a certain amount of time. The teachers try to teach this as
fast as they can and then they give a test. If the children pass it great, if
they don’t then it is still on to the next thing because the teachers “need” to
get to the other topics. Then teachers have to prepare for state wide tests
also which honestly to me mean nothing because personally on the SATs, if there
is pre-calc on there and I am nowhere near that in my math studies, how is it
even fair? It’s not, so why?? Why do we need this? Why can’t schools simply go
off of students grades in high school alone? Why is it always about testing? Also
I am going to school to be a phys. Ed teacher. Why do I need the <a href="http://www.ets.org/praxis" target="_blank">Praxis</a>? When am
I going to need any of that to teach children to be active and help them with
those skills? <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #990000;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Students today are honestly just writing down
notes to write them down pretending that they can go back and look at these
notes and maybe learn something when in reality they are clueless half the
time. I once had a teacher who told me that I asked too many questions in math
at my old college and we had to move on to something else. Shor states “ People
are naturally curious”, meaning that they want to know answers and when they
don’t know the answers because the professors don’t have time, then that is a
huge issue and something needs to be changed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Teachers need to encourage children to want to ask questions, not push
them away before they all actually go away and not want to go to school and get
a great learning experience like Shor mentions.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

teachers should all treat their students equal and no matter what teachers need

<strong><span style="color: red;">TALKING POINTS: Is it only me or does anyone else believe that testing should not be the answer? Personally I am a horrible test taker and I have a big fear that in the future it will end up hurting my chances of becoming a teacher if I do not do well on the Praxis. Shouldn't there be some other way of going about getting in to school, or being a teacher without having to take these tests?</span></strong>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15882265283478074517noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2224705537051275573.post-44396542350747543972013-11-17T18:31:00.001-08:002013-11-17T18:31:29.230-08:00Schooling children with down syndrome

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif";"><span style="color: #0b5394;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I chose this quote because it is basically
saying that if we separate students in classrooms we are pretty much taking
away the opportunities. In classrooms the students who do not have a <a href="http://www.ncld.org/parents-child-disabilities/ld-rights" target="_blank">disability</a>
are getting a better education, and the ones who do are getting that taken away
by getting taken away and getting less of an education. I can relate to this
because I know that when I was in elementary school I would get taken away to a
different room when it was time for reading groups when all I wanted to do was
prove that I could actually read and that when the teacher had the rest of the
class reading books together, I could do the same. It made me not want to read
even more because I was never given a fair opportunity. This also relates to
<a href="https://www.aclu.org/lgbt-rights/lgbt-youth-schools" target="_blank">LGBT</a> in a way with Geri Augusts’ Safe Spaces article because these problems are
also not given the same opportunity. And how people feel insecure about this in
schools too and feel abnormal because schooling makes this happen. <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #073763;">Before the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_v._Board_of_Education" target="_blank">Brown Vs. Board of Education</a> trial, all schools
were segregated. Some people thought that this was completely ok, and others
thought the opposite. After reading the article by Bob Herbert, and the videos
from Tim Wise, i learned that many of the things that happened back when this
trial began also is continuing to happen in today’s time period. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="color: #073763;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #073763;">Back when this trial began, people of color had to fight for
being able to have schools and had to fight to even get supplies as stated on
the website of historical backgrounds of this case. This relates to today’s
time period because in the article it mentions how even in today’s schools the
poor schools do not have the supplies and they do not have the resources that
the “white” schools as someone would say have more. I feel like it is so
unfair. It’s not right that just because there are wealthier areas in this
country they should have better schools. It’s not that town or cities fault and
the kids should not have this taken out on them because they do not have the
funding. It mentions in the video that the ones that do not see this as a
problem are the ones who are not living on the rougher side of this. More the whites
and the rich.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="color: #073763;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #073763;">Also things that have no changed from the Brown vs. Board of
Education case is that there has always been “denial”. For instance in the
video it mentions that white honestly do not think that there is a problem with
how much better they get treated. In the trial whites did not think that there
was a problem that other minorities did not have what they did. We are still in
denial today. In the video it mentions how 2/3 of whites think that blacks are
treated equally as them when it comes to education, housing, and employment. Honestly
cannot say I am one of these people. Going to my service learning alone makes
me realize that I am more privileged. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="color: #073763;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #073763;">This country has a lot of work to do if we ever want to stop
racism and become a better place. Honestly what does it matter the color of
skin. It doesn’t. we are all human so who cares if someone has a darker tint, I
guess it is something that I will never truly understand. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I feel like it all goes back to the article by
Peggy McIntosh White Privilege, because although white people do not see it
they always get the upper hand in almost every situation and this needs to
change. It should not matter if you go to a commuter school and are black like
the video says, if you want to be president because a white person could do
that and it would be the opposite. Once again everyone needs to realize we are
all human. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #073763;"><span style="color: red;">TALKING POINTS- I feel like people talk about change and it never happens. If only there was a way that we could actually make a change when it comes to situations like this because it actually does bother me that there are still race issues in 2013.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="color: #134f5c;">“In the
moral domain. service learning activities tend toward two types of
relationships. Relationships that emphasize charity we will call
"giving." Those that aim primarily to deepen relationships and to
forge new connections we will call "caring."”<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">While in
service learning, you do develop these two types of relationships. The relationship
of giving to me stands for giving the kids something back in return for all
their hard work. For instance helping them out with something or rewarding them
when they learn something new. Being there for them through the process of
learning means more to them then people can imagine and giving them that
support is a great feeling. Caring for the students comes to play when talking
about being there when no one else is there. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Service learning can improve the community and invigorate
the classroom. I think that this says a lot. This is because service learning
can improve the community not only in the classrooms but also the volunteers
that are doing it. When doing service learning I feel like even if I did a
little that day, I have done so much just by being there for the kids when they
need someone to talk to or ask a simple question. Service learning also improves
the classroom because the kids are getting a chance to ask someone other then
the teacher for help when they are busy and sometimes even us <a href="http://www.inspiringmindsri.org/matriarch/default.asp" target="_blank">VIPS</a> volunteers
can teach them different methods which helps in the long run. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">

<div class="CM8" style="margin: 0in 6.75pt 0pt 0in;">
<span style="color: #134f5c;"><span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">“Students
in Atlanta must complete 75 hours of volunteer service to graduate. Maryland
now <span style="color: #134f5c;">r</span></span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="color: windowtext;"><span style="color: #134f5c;">equires that all high school
students perform 75 hours of community service prior to graduation or participate
in an alternative district</span> </span><span>program
approved by the state.”</span><span style="color: windowtext;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="line-height: 115%;">I can
personally relate to this because in order to graduate my high school, we
needed 80 hours of community service to graduate. Although when you first hear
80 hours of community service, it seems like a lot, it really isn’t. When you
do these hours you just feel like you are doing so much good for different
communities no matter what project you are doing. Like the students in
Maryland, we also had to write about the experiences and I can honestly say I had
a smile on my face when writing about my experience. I think all schools should
do some type of community service it will help you, and it will help others. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: #e06666;">Reading this article also makes me relate it to this FNED class because without this class relating to service learning like the teachers in this article, we would not have the opportunity to be at the schools we are at now. Also we get to read articles that most of us have never heard of. For instance I can relate this to Teaching Multilingual Children. Without reading this article I would not be able to carry it in to my service learning classroom which does have many children who do not speak this language and I am super thankful for this now, instead of having to deal with it the hard way later.</span> </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">BY: LINDA CHRISTENSEN</span><br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> <span style="color: #a64d79;"> </span></span></span><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="color: #a64d79;">After
reading Linda Christensen Unlearning the Myths That Bind Us, I could not help
but connect this text to the movie A Cinderella Story, starring Hillary Duff as
Sam and Chad Michael Murray as Austin. In this movie there a girl who is stereotyped
as weird or geeky who works at a diner. Through high school all of the “rich” “popular”
girls and boys such as Austin and his friends make fun of Sam. She lets it
slide and continues to only be herself. Then the homecoming Halloween dance
comes. She dresses up as Cinderella and tries to look like someone whom she is
not just to try and impress the man of her dreams who she keeps a secret
emailing relationship with because he will not tell her who he really is. When she
gets to the dance she meets him and he does not know who she is under disguise.
At the end of the movie he finally finds out who she is and of course they fall
in love and end up going to Princeton together. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So the point that I am basically trying to
make is that when Christensen makes her point that everyone tries to be something
they are not<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>to impress that boy she is
right. Why not just continue to be yourself? Why is it always about having to
impress someone or getting that perfect guy or the perfect lifestyle? Why is it
that in all movies and cartoons they all have the perfect hair or the perfect
body? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Personally I know that if someone
does not like me because instead of dressing up I wear sweatpants or because I like
to sit around and eat junk food once and a while on the weekends they are not
worth my time. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><span style="color: #a64d79;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Christensen says that “We are not only taught
certain styles of violence, fashions, and sex roles by TV, movies, magazines,
comic strips” , it is everywhere. As humans we will always try to be something
we are not if we keep reading and watching these things. This all relates to Safe
Spaces because people are also afraid of talking about being different like
they are talking about other subjects that come with being human. Everyone needs
to always be themselves and not worry about what anyone else thinks no matter
what the situation is. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"> <span style="color: #990000;"> After reading Five Reasons to Stop Saying "Good Job!" By Alfie
Kohn, I completely disagree with the point that this author is trying to make
that saying “good job” should not be allowed. Students need that extra support
in life no matter what. As a matter of fact I feel as though all people need to
be told they did a good job or a bad job, it is simply a part of life. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #990000;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"> </span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">While
at a school last week helping a fourth grade science and math class, there was
a student who had gotten in trouble. While he thought that the teachers in the
room did not notice him rolling around on the floor and acting with poor
behavior, he got his name written on the board with a sad face. The student
spent the next twenty minutes disappointed in him moping around. The main
teacher of the class noticed this and stopped what she was doing and she asked
the class if they had ever gotten in trouble. The majority of the class raised
their hand and said yes. She then looked at the boy and told him that yes,
everyone gets in trouble. You live and you learn from it and then you fix the
mistakes you made and it is not the end of the world. After the student saw the
rest of his classmates and when the teacher talked to him, he held his head
high and he did an awesome job of participating the rest of the class and
forgot about what he had done and the teacher acknowledged the fact he did this
by saying “good job”. </span></span><br />

think that this is important because if a teacher tells someone they did
something wrong, it will only help them. When someone in life hears this it
will help them correct their mistakes. If the students or even any human being
is not told when they are doing good or bad, how will they learn anything? By saying
good job yes, it is a confidence booster and I do not think Alfie Kohn should
think this is a bad thing. I even think that people should saying something more than </span><a href="http://www.positiveparentingsolutions.com/parenting/encouraging-words" target="_blank"><span style="color: #990000;">good job</span></a><span style="color: #990000;">, something that has even a stronger meaning. Everyone likes to hear they are doing a good thing
once and a while. It could even save a life if someone is having a bad day.</span> <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="color: red;"><strong>TALKING POINTS- <span style="color: black;">I feel like saying good job to people is a must. I do not get why schools do not like this. Especially when I play in soccer it boosts my confidence so much and makes me work harder then I already when I hear that. I think that children need this especially when like Herbert Kohl said some children do not want to learn.</span></strong></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15882265283478074517noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2224705537051275573.post-61117947187876731442013-10-06T09:46:00.001-07:002013-10-06T09:46:19.280-07:00Safe Spaces

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: red;">“To the extent that teachers, school administrators, and
college professors create an atmosphere in which difference is not only
tolerated but expected, explored, and embraced, students will be more likely to
develop perspectives that result in respectful behaviors “(Page 83).</span> <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span><span style="color: blue;">To me
this quote is saying that in schools teachers really need to create a place in
their classrooms where they can teach their students to accept <a href="http://www.liveoutloud.info/" target="_blank">LGBT</a> rights. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They need to make sure everyone is accepted
for who they are and no one should want to make anybody feel as if they do not
belong. If this does happen in schools where teachers can teach this then
students will no longer be felt as if they are left out and they will be
respected and not judged. Personally I cannot help but feel for the kids who
feel like they are alone because teachers do not address these things in classrooms.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: red;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>“When asked if they
were taught about LGBT people or history, less than 12 percent of LGBT students
replied to the affirmative” (Page 91).<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span><span style="color: blue;">This
percentage is awful in my opinion. I do not understand why teachers are so
afraid to talk about these issues in their classrooms. Yes, they may feel like
parents will not be happy but like the test says “Grow up!” Honestly if these
children are not going to learn about LGBT in classrooms where else are they
possibly going to learn? Obviously not their parents since they do not think
they are ready for it in classrooms. They will just keep talking about it with
their friends and putting the subject down. People need to open their eyes like
the simple kindergarten teachers are doing and even if they only talk about it
in little detail or mention it here and there it’s a start that could lead to
something more.</span> <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: red;">“Words invite or exclude, recognize or erase, empower or
intimidate, examine or assume. Far from what the children chant would have let
us believe ,words are sticks and stones. And those sticks and stones can either
build bridges or break bones” (Page 95). <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> <span style="color: blue;"> </span></span><span style="color: blue;">In life
someone’s words can either make someone’s day, or make someone feel like they
are alone. If these topics come up in school more often than the children who
do feel left out will in my opinion most likely not skip classes anymore and
feel welcomed. This is because other students will know the situation and will
no longer feel the need to void it and just make fun of the idea. I think
everyone would feel much better about themselves and there would no longer be
assumptions or hurtful words being said.</span> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"> <span style="color: magenta;"> <strong><span style="font-size: x-large;">ARIA BY RICHARD RODRIGUEZ</span></strong></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<strong><span style="color: blue; font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">REFLECTION</span></strong></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> In <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Aria, </i>Richard
Rodriguez argues that in today’s society people are forced to lose a part of
who they are, because they need to learn a different language in school districts.
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In this article Rodriguez mentions that
when he was going to school he did not know much English because this was not
the language that he spoke at home with his family. Teachers eventually caught
on and met with his parents basically forcing them to only speak English with
him. To me this shows that this was the beginning of Rodriguez losing a part of
who he was because if a teacher shows up to someone’s house, forcing them to
all of the sudden switch languages spoken in a household just so that it is
more convenient for them (in my opinion) that is taking away a part of individualism
and a part of someone’s culture. Personally I think that this family should
have only spoken a somewhat English in the household as well as Spanish or use
a kind of “Code Switching” as Collier would say and use both in sentences
because what language someone speaks defines who they are and defines their
pride. I think that if the family would have done this then Richards father
would have been more social with the family and tried harder with his family
like with everyone else. “His children became so accustomed to his silence…But
my father was not shy, I realized, when I’d watch him speaking Spanish with
relatives” (Rodriguez).<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I feel like
maybe they could have had more fun with learning a new language as well as
adding their own pride in the language at the same time if they spoke with both
languages. </span></div>
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> <span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Although
I have never known of a teacher to show up to my friend’s house to make them
change their language from Spanish to English, I do know someone who was one of
my good friends that over time lost who they were because they basically were
forced to only speak English at school because the teachers did not try to help
him. This friend changed in so many ways. When he first came he cared for
everyone and did not care if he was being too nice or what anyone thought about
him. Overtime, he began to learn the language and from there on began to
change. He became mean and so much different than before or you could say he
became </span><a href="http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Americanized" target="_blank"><span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Americanized</span></a><span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">. He would make fun of people, he started to hang around the
wrong crowd and make bad choices. He also did not have the relationship with
his dad that he once had just like Rodriguez, throwing parties and not even
talking when they were in the same room. To me this proves that by going to a
school and having to change the language you originally spoke, makes people
lose a part of them. Personally I think that we as a whole country need to fix
this and let people speak the language that will help them have better future
and not tear their family apart which I now see has happened more than once. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: #274e13;">After reading the
article on McIntosh’s piece titled <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">White
Privilege: Unpacking the Invisible Knapsack,</i> I thought that overall it was
a very interesting read. This article was mainly about how white people are
born with privileges in which they are not even really aware of, that people in
other races may not have. Peggy McIntosh also corresponds this with men and how
they have this effect over women when it comes to having more privileges over
women naturally. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: #274e13;">In McIntosh’s article I
could relate to when she mentioned some of the different advantages that whites
have during an everyday lifestyle, compared to some other races. For instance
when she mentions getting pulled over by cops. Personally I know that in my
town, which is not a very diverse town, people who have windows that are tinted,
or people driving that are not white usually get pulled over faster than someone
who happens to be white. Some white people do not realize this but it is true
and it is absolutely horrible. Just because someone is of a different skin
color or does not have the nicest car does not mean that they are any different
from the more expensive car. This also goes a long with people carrying
backpacks. If a white person is carrying a backpack the police will not do
anything where I live, if it’s someone of a different race they may be
questioned. Stereotypes in this world today are worse than ever.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: #274e13;">I could also relate to
the advantage of when McIntosh mentions opening the paper or turning on the
television and seeing a white race. In today’s society I do not think that it
is right that blacks and whites have to have television stations that have our
races mentioned in them. For instance <a href="http://www.bet.com/" target="_blank">BET</a> (Black Entertainment), why does this
station have to be named this as though whites are not in some way allowed to
watch because it is not their skin color. People need to stop thinking that we
need to be separate and are not privileged enough to watch the same stations as
each other so we need to make separate ones. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="color: #274e13;">Overall I did agree
with Peggy McIntosh in this article. I feel as though people do not see these privileges.
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In the world today all races need to be
equal from the minute they are born, not just one race. If not, this world will
never end up changing. </span></span></div>

Hey FNED!<br />
My names Jaclyn Greenman. I am a transfer student from Southern Connecticut State University and Three Rivers Community College. I'm from a town in Connecticut called Waterford near the beach where I have lived my entire life and I would not change it for the world. In my free time I play soccer at <a href="http://www.goanchormen.com/index.html" target="_blank">RIC</a> so when everyone is free come and check out a game! <br />
Over the summer I spent most of my time working at the New London Probate Court, as well as subbing at an elementary school, going to the beach, hanging with friends, and playing in a summer soccer league. <br />
I decided to take this class because I really wanted to get a feel for how it is working in the schools that we will be visiting because at home I was in a different area that was not as diverse as the schools we will be going to. <br />
Can't wait to get to know everyone! <br />
<br />
