In his essay “People Like Us”, David Brooks’ argues that although the United States is a diverse nation as a whole, it is homogeneous in specific aspects like interactions between people. To some extent, his observation is true; people tend to stick to what or who they are comfortable with.

For instance, Brooks excludes the explanation of diversity integration in the United States, where instead focuses on racial integration as the definition of diversity in America. He also makes assumptions that people purposefully intend to segregate themselves and underestimates their capability of living together because of their location, political values and personal appeal.…

    There are many important landmarks from colonial times that are important for current and future learning and involvement. Many of which have a strong connection to the Colonial Williamsburg foundation’s mission statement: “That the future may learn from the past”. The significance during colonial times is great in all these buildings and they have deep value to citizens today. These buildings, the Capitol building, the Governor's Palace and the Magazine, do have a considerable amount of value, but they did not have the characteristics necessary for a commemorative coin. As a result of the Bruton Parish church having many valued characteristics, and is the most important, it should be the building honored with a commemorative coin.…

All these buildings are important now, as they were in the colonial times. The Bruton Parish Church most deserves a commemorative coin though, because it was a hospital and storehouse during the Battle of Yorktown and during the Civil War, is still a running parish that many people attend weekly, was the third Anglican Church, so it was a model for later churches, and was a gathering place for all of the citizens.…

    In result, it is difficult for them to see the struggles of non-white people. McIntosh acknowledges this fact and was able to isolate herself from the community in order to look closely at the gap between the white people and the non-white people. Her tone was very neutral, she was not trying to be in favor to neither groups. I also appreciate the fact that she mentioned how she would forget these inequalities if she did not record them down in writing. It shows that she actually performed an observation to to be able to perceive the actual problems in the community, not making up a fake information to support her claims. In addition, her struggle to memorize the white privilege also support her earlier statement about the white people's inability to distinguish the intangible…

    Using our institution’s motto of “It’s All Here,” is very indicative of the key qualities of the Hawk experience. Residential communities are not just where students go to sleep and shower, it becomes their home.
