DSP Response

I like all of the Stories but i loved the one with the legos because i thought it was one of the hardest ones to do. And i also thought that marwans was funny because of how they set it up. Racism is still sort of a big thing. I think in schools it is alot bigger thing than with like parents and stuff. It used to be really back along time ago but it has gotten better since. There is alot of racism through people who cant speak eanglish, or sometimes people say other bad things that isnt even true. I think jobs alot harder for some people than others, and this is because of our race in some ways. Just like in the book, the whole movie is about family and race, and how they just get by, but they do it.

Our racist, sexist selves

1. The author called himself racist because he shot blacks alot faster than he shot whites. No i dont think this means he is racist because its just a test, or a game, it doesnt really show who you are
2. No is dont think it says anything about racism, because like i said, alot of people looked for the weapons or cellphones instead of the color or race of the person
3. Because more people are into the opposite sex, and different genders more than the color. Guys like girls and girls like guys that is how alot of people look at it.
4. The quote is saying that, americans dont have anything against women, but they think of them differently as men. Like political, they think of them being the nice group and not the kind of group that can run the country, or go to war.
5. That they dont get as much credit in the political terms as men do. People think of them differently because of how they act. Which isnt true, because you dont know everyone, and all there personality.
6. Just keep trying to change the way the nation looks at you. I mean he is saying than in a large stand point it is harder for women in politics and presidential. Well i think that if women keep trying to do this, than it will start to change.
