This story gives a reflection on the role of the media because it demonstrates how news matter when a catastrophe occurs. Media is there to inform the public and increase their popularity but they are emotionally detached on what Azucena is going through.

The media only follows the company’s demands which is to bring more money for the company and that they shouldn’t take daily events emotionally. Though there’s Rolf Carle, who is different toward Azucena and distracts her from her hurt and loss of hope.

There are many techniques on how they are similar in each story. The techniques that are similar are the tone and figurative language that is used in each of the stories.

“The House on Mango Street” and “Bless Me,Ultima” are similar, but they have their differences. Whereas, “Bless Me, Ultima” is about a young boy growing up with his future chosen for him by his parents and him dealing with religion, “The House on Mango Street” is about a young girl growing up in an environment that she is not proud of, by any means. As the two main characters grow up, they find that their perspectives in life vary along the way. I find that Antonio Marez from “Bless Me, Ultima” and Esperanza Cordero, from “The House on Mango Street,” can relate to many aspects of my life.

Another similarity between these two texts is that the characters have similar feelings. In The Red Umbrella, Lucy and her Frankie has to leave her family because of the Cuban War. Her and her brother are very unhappy about the situation and don't want to leave. The author displays this in the text when it says, “I jumped up. ‘No! You didn’t even ask us! I won’t be shipped off!’” The author also shows that Lucy’s little brother Frankie is unhappy when he says, “No! I won’t do it and you can’t make me!” In the Migration Photograph, the people in the picture are also unhappy but filled with some hope for a better future.

One similarity was that both stories explore the same topic. For instance, the second story explores an equivalent topic that exists in the historical account of Harriet Tubman. Another similarity was that both of these stories address the brutality of slavery. In the second story, it states, “cracked his whip over the slower ones to make them move faster. That whip was a slice-open cut of pain.” In the first story, it states, “dreadful sound of screams. Because the runaway slave had been caught, would be whipped.” Evidently, both passages constantly address the brutality of slavery by referencing the fact that slaves were furiously whipped by their masters.

In both these stories, the authors portray two very different yet alike women who have trouble accepting their fate and are trying to reject the life of women of their class. Mathilde Loisel and Louise Mallard are very alike because they dream of something they do not have, then their dreams come true, but destiny plays a fatal role in both stories, and ladies lose everything they had. In both stories, ladies have caring husbands, whom they do not appreciate .Unfortunately, the endings of
