The White School: A Short Story
As a few second passed, Sylvia thought thoroughly about what she was going to say. “ In my opinion, the white schools have more right and freedom, and they have the new version of everything. If any person wants to go to that kind of school, why shouldn’t they?” she stated while her face turned red.

“What I do not understand is that why you are arguing with me? Why would anyone attend that school with the knowledge of all the trouble that they will face?” her father rebutted with confusion on his face.

In incredulity, Gary assured “No offence, but since when did you become unafraid of the integration? Oh and thank you, see Dad even sylvia gets it.”

“Yeah I get it very well, but i’m still startled about all the integration stuff, You know

    Summary Of The Sanctuary Of School By Lynda Barry

    The Sanctuary of School by Lynda Barry highlights the negligence of parents and the gap the school system fills to provide a solution to that negligence. Arts programs and the like, have proven a reliable outlet for children who come from these settings. We see hundreds of testimonies like Barry’s that tell just how large an impact these programs have on children. Art should certainly be a part of a child’s development system as it serves as a means of expression when words cannot. As is such, the school system should strive to implement these programs into the school system to avoid any children “slipping through the cracks.”…

He mentions that the middle class people were fooled by those of the Elite class. The Elite class made them feel as though they were more important than there servants, which were normally African Americans, even though, the Elite did not care what everyone thought, they just wanted to stay on top.

    Personal Narrative: My Person Of Color In The Homeroom

    As I entered homeroom, I noticed I was the only latina present and that there was only one other person of color. At first this did not bug me, but as the week went by, I realized that we were the only two non-white students in the whole middle school. This made me feel very out of place, because I had never been the only Latina at a school, so I did anything I could to fit in. I was willing to let people make me their own personal dictionary, for inappropriate language, or to translate their readings. As a person of color, I was always taught to put others before me or else I would be seen as rude and uneducated, so I complied. Throughout my life, I have witnessed that many upper class citizens take their privilege for granted; they do not…

    The Color White: Dorian Gray

    Historically, the color white has been used as a motif of both life and death. For instance, white is the traditional color of wedding dresses in both western and Japanese cultures. White is used to symbolize purity in western culture weddings. On the other hand, white is used to signify the death of the old family and introduce the new family. In the novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray, one of the most vital motifs is the color white. The meaning of this color develops as the novel progresses and corresponds in relation to the trajectory of Dorian’s character. Even though the motif never physically amends in appearance, it is successful in transforming its’ meaning entirely. Indicating the immense dissimilarity in Dorian from the start of the novel to the end.…
