Pushed Out and Forgotten – The Batwa SOC/120 12/2/2012 Born in the United States‚ I grew up believing that the children who lived next door or the boy who sat across from me in class had it all.

I began reading Anna Deavere Smith’s Fires in the Mirror without doing any pre-reading about the subject of the play or the author. When I read over the long list of "characters" for the play‚ I thought I would never be able to keep up with who’s who.
