The teacher took ribbons and tied them around the neck of a certain eye color group for a day and treated them differently. It demonstrated to the children that they cannot choose what eye color they have and they got very upset that they were being treated poorly and their friends with a different eye color were not. This in conjunction with how a person of color doesn’t get to determine their skin color but still are treated solely on the color of their skin.
During the first semester of English 1301, I have learned so much that before I hadn’t comprehended. This class has teached me to write what is my passion and explain my thoughts thoroughly.

I feel as I have learned more in these 16 weeks than have in the last two years of highschool english.
