Little Sabrina's Ideas
“If Adults had a Mind of a Kid ” is a story about young girl who was raised to understand that not every kid is as blessed is she is and to always be open to help others out. Little Sabrina who has all the school supplies she can have to be successful in class. One day in class she notices that some of the kids don’t have the same amount of supplies as her. She figures maybe she could at least give the kids at her table a box of crayons and scissors that they can share equality since she knew she had more at home. But what Sabrina doesn’t do is think of their ethnicity, or where they come from to determine if she should help them out. All she sees for her eyes is that these kids need more supplies to get a good grade so she figures she can

    Warriors Dont Cry Analysis

    For example, ¨ You would have to tell those boys who did this, thank you.¨ Grandma India teaches Melba to say thank you instead of being a victim so Melba learns to smile and meet every outrageous abuse with a polite “ Thank you.” In addition Melba was concerned about taking part of the integration “ I was living with concern - preparing to take part in the integration of Central High School.” Melba did not know for sure if she wanted to go through with the integration process but overall to the black community Central High had symbolized a place of better education but also all the barriers the little rock nine would break if they were to attend an all white school. Central High School was more than just getting nine black kids into an all white school, it was about giving black people as a whole the same opportunities whites…

    The Lesson By Toni Bambar The Perseverance Of African American Society

    During the early to mid 1900’s, the author was able to illustrate the life of this society from childhood all the way to adulthood. This story was written in a particular language which was relative to the environment of these children and the neighborhood they were being raised in. The children in “The Lesson” were a definite product of their society. The spoke, walked and conduct themselves according to the way they were raised and taught. The actions and conduct of the adults could be observed within the actions and conduct of the children. The author in this story used a college educated black woman, who took specific interest in helping to develop the young children in her neighborhood. She wanted to teach them that education was important and that they could achieve anything they set their minds to achieve. Miss Moore would take the children uptown to where the upper-class society lived, shopped, and frequent to show the children what other people had. She wanted the children to see that where they were from is who they are, but she also wanted them to understand it did not have to be that way (DiYanni, 2007). She also attempted to stress to the children that poor people had to demand their share of what society had (DiYanni,…

    Who's Irish

    The point of view focuses on the grandmother. The story begins by talking about her background. It is arranged in chronological order. First, the narrator¡¦s granddaughter is introduced and then her family background. The narrator describes herself as ¡§fierce¡¨. Everyone is afraid of her. Her daughter is somewhat like her mom at least she is also ¡§fierce¡¨ because she is a bank vice president, but her granddaughter is wild, not like her daughter or herself. In the grandmother¡¦s opinion, if her granddaughter Sophie does not act like other Chinese girls, she is wild. In other words, the narrator seems to think people coming from a different culture are weird. After that, the narrator talked about her son-in-law. She thought she did not understand him because he could neither find a job nor look after Sophie. Grandmother said,¡¨Plain boiled food, plain boiled thinking. Even his name is plain boiled: John¡¨ (206). At this point, she somewhat despised her son-in-law, John. He is a white person who can speak English. There is no way he can not find a job. Besides, the grandmother always felt the culture gap. ¡§In China, we talk about whether we have difficulty or no difficulty. We talk about whether life is bitter or not bitter. In America, all day long, people talk about creative¡¨ (208). She did not understand why the ex-babysitter let Sophie get naked and run around. Creativity did not mean anything to her. There was no such a word in Chinese. In addition, she told her daughter ¡§We do…

    There Are No Children Here Environmental Analysis

    By the time many of the children of the inner city have hit adolescence, they have witnessed and experienced many tragedies that even an adult would find disturbing. They have sold drugs, joined a gang, have seen their best friend shot, or even killed their neighbor. "By season's end, the police would record that one person every three days had been beaten, shot at, or stabbed at Horner. In just one week, they confiscated twenty-two guns and 330 grams of cocaine. Most of the violence here that summer was related to drugs." (32) There events seriously impact the childhoods of the youth, and rob these children of their innocence by showing them events that are not healthy for a child's growing mind to see. Pharaoh and Lafayette, like most all of the other children in the ghettos, are faced with a hard choice: stand up for yourself and succeed by refusing to accept the cities violence, or succumb to the pressure that pushes down on you from…

    Mejdi Tours To Kill A Mockingbird

    If a person does not know someone, they will judge them not on their character or by their skills, but instead by more easily discernible aspects of their person, such as their skin color. For example, on the first day of school, Miss Caroline tells Scout that her previous knowledge of reading “would interfere with [Scout’s] reading”(17). Miss Caroline is a metaphor for society as she repeatedly follows the stereotype that all first graders should not know how to read and write to Scout’s detriment. She is an exceptional member of the first grade who is suffering because of the actions of the rest of her group, like how the vast majority of African Americans suffer from the negative aspects of few. Miss Caroline’s prejudice shows how all preconceptions restrains development by beating down those who are ahead of the stereotype until they conform. This is like Tom Robinson’s trial, because although he was a honest, hard-working person, all the jury could see what the color of his skin, which implied to them that he was the lazy dishonest Negro, like how the only part of Scout Miss Caroline saw was the first-grader part, and prompted her to treat her exceptionalities with distaste. Likewise, Aunt Alexandra has a habit of remarking on Scout’s behavior and how it should be more ladylike although Scout has no intentions of becoming a lady. Aunt Alexandra’s expectations for Scout to play “with small stoves, tea sets, and wearing the Add-A-Pearl necklace she gave [Scout] when [she] was born” neither fits with the child’s personality nor her nature, like society’s often inaccurate stereotypes. These stereotypes don’t fit with the people they represent because they were formed by outsiders with a lack of empathy with the subjects of the prejudice, like how Aunt Alexandra’s expectations of Scout are based of her beliefs on what every young girl should amount to in life,…

    The story is told from a viewpoint of a growing 6 year old child, Scout Finch. So we are seeing situations from an innocent ‘eye’, ‘she looked and smelled like a peppermint drop’ after the misinforming way the child regards adults and the way they act and talk. This sober judgement is a truth to be understood by all young people because they don’t understand certain things in life.…

    “I’m fourteen years old and I’ve been to forty-two funerals”, Junior says. That’s really the big difference between Indians and white people. In the community of Wellpinit, everyone is related, everyone is valued, everyone lives a hardscrabble life, and everyone is at risk for early death, and the loss of one person is a loss to the community. Compare Wellpinit to Reardan, whose residents have greater access to social services, health care, and wealth, and the people are socially distanced from each other. Junior uses a “matter- of- fact” statement to describe this great gap between a financially destroyed Indian community and a middle- class white town just a few miles away. He realizes that he doesn’t have to see himself as a person split in two. He sees that he is part of many different tribes (he is not only Indian, but a cartoonist, and a son, and a basketball player, and a bookworm, and so on…) Arnold knows that he’s not from Reardan or Wellpinit. He is multi-tribal.Junior’s parents, Rowdy’s father, and others in the Reardan community are addicted to alcohol, and Junior’s white “friend with potential”, Penelope has bulimia. “There are all kinds of addicts, I guess,” he says. We all have pain and we all look for ways to make pain go away. Junior understands there pains and he knows how to feel there pain. He doesn’t feel these exact pains but he still knows. A pain that Junior can relate to is the pain of being poor. It was Christmas and of course his father was going out to get drunk at a bar but that wasn’t surprising to Junior. Although, there was something surprising about the situation because his father came back not too long after but he had something for Junior. It was five dollars that Junior thought was going to be spent on alcohol by his father. Yea, it wasn’t a present or gift or a gift of some sort but it was special, special to Junior. This situation shows how poverty affects Junior’s lifestyle. We are so used to living the good life with a…

    They learned to value the people in their towns as individuals, developed moral courage in the face of hypocrisy, and the realization that justice should be followed through with no regard to race or class. The children learned to develop open minds, unprejudiced and individual minds. The book was an eye opener for not only what went on during the Great Depression, but also for what is happening now in 21 century everyday life. The novel has many themes and lessons, many of the best ones written in between the lines. This book could be read by anyone as it is written through the eyes of a child, and the grammar of one, with an adult’s…

    The Great Gatsby Open Minded Examples

    For instance one of the little girls “Momma said don’t climb over the fence when you play, it isn’t safe.” (Woodson -). Being different from others can be hard especially when you’re a child not really knowing what is going on in the world. These two girls were different because of their race and that they were in different socail classes, but that never stopped them from talking to each other. “My mamma says I shouldn’t go on the other side...My mama says the same thing. But she never said nothing about sitting on it.” (Woodson -). Both their moms never said anything when the two girls would sit on the fence and just look around and talk. Deceny plays a big part in life; and these two girls never made a big fuss about it because life to them was simple, becasue all they wanted to do is have fun and be a kid. However in today’s society, things like this don’t really happen anymore because kids these days aren’t outside playing in the mud, but instead sitting inside playing on iphones, ipods, ipads, and playing video games all day long in their free time. I remember when I was younger that I was always outside playing in the mud, running through the woods bare foot, riding dirt bikes, four wheelers, and just having fun being a kid. Honeslty thats all these two little girls cared about, was having…

    Brave New World: After the End of Chapter Three

    Bells shrieked out like nails on a chalk board and at once every child straightened up and remained silent sitting at their desks. “So today you will all learn, Community, Identity, and Stability”. “Community, Identity and Stability”. “Community, Identity, and Stability”… This was drummed into the children’s heads like a broken record. The tick of a clock was the only sound you could hear at any given pause. Block A, west wing. Every window on the right side of this classroom, and the three which stood by the side of it, were tinted. You could only see through them with squinted eyes, and even then shadows were the only things which were just about visible. Keeping the children naive about the metres of embryos which dominated the east of the building was to be followed up until high school. High school however, is simply where you begin to learn the skills needed and what is expected of you for your job. The job you are given from birth.…
