Diane Glancy Without Title Meaning
“There should be no discrimination against languages people speak, skin color, or religion.” This is a quote by Malala Yousafzai and as simple as it may sound, it doesn’t seem to be understood by the majority of not only our society, but societies all over the world.

In the poem Glancy states, “When he brought home his horns and hides my mother said get rid of them,” (Lines 11-13). This piece of evidence shows that even in his own family his culture is being denied of acceptance. We can assume that the mother probably has a different culture than that of the father’s.

The culture, which is a huge part of the father’s identity, will not be able to be passed down and soon that culture will die. If the mother would have accepted the father and his different ways of life, in this case his culture, then a big part of the origins could be shared and future generations could know more about that and be able to pass something meaningful
