We can be truly blind to what is happening to us. I also think the oppressor can be unaware until they get punished for their actions. Wed, 17 Mar 2021 15:00:00 -0400 the kids are really young. they do look like middle school kids. and they might have to take on big responsibilities in their life https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380296 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380296 Wed, 17 Mar 2021 15:00:00 -0400 I think the butterfly shows personal growth in general since the butterflies look like wings on the children. https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380292 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380292 Wed, 17 Mar 2021 15:00:00 -0400 I think butterflies are a sign of hope. How they mature from a Catipillar to a Butterfly and how they spread they wings and fly away. https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380269 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380269 Wed, 17 Mar 2021 15:00:00 -0400 the child having no shoes I think really does symbolize how poor her is and how poor his family is , and how this might have a degrading effect on his life https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380256 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380256 Wed, 17 Mar 2021 14:59:59 -0400 Reply https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380244 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380244 I agree school is degrading. we put so much effort in and we dont even know what we are going to get out of it in the end. It so stressful sometimes Wed, 17 Mar 2021 14:59:59 -0400 the cover of the book may allow us to infer the contents of the book. https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380237 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380237 Wed, 17 Mar 2021 14:59:59 -0400 Harris is an author out of Cleveland, Ohio https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380231 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380231 Wed, 17 Mar 2021 14:59:59 -0400 the kids could be wearing what they might be portrayed as by other people, showing injustice https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380206 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380206 Wed, 17 Mar 2021 14:59:59 -0400 Reply https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380196 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380196 Yea I think it showed a sign of maturity kind of like growing up into his own person Wed, 17 Mar 2021 14:59:58 -0400 Reply https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380188 https://nowcomment.com/documents/263250?scroll_to=2380188 I agree it took him quite a while to figure out he was oppressed Wed, 17 Mar 2021 14:59:58 -0400 Thoughts https://nowcomment.com/documents/258111?scroll_to=2332942 https://nowcomment.com/documents/258111?scroll_to=2332942 Something I kind of took away is how maybe when somebody is this huge star and big time name, maybe the bad things they do like assaulting women can kind of be given a back seat. I also think that maybe this is saying some big time people might think it is okay or cool to assault women and cheat on their wife which is obviously not okay.

I think Bishop is suggesting that the planting of the tears can help grow to new things after grieving the loss of a loved one maybe. Tue, 09 Feb 2021 13:29:47 -0500 Same https://nowcomment.com/documents/247092?scroll_to=2300352 https://nowcomment.com/documents/247092?scroll_to=2300352 Yea for me it's all about the mind set like you said. I think telling yourself that today is going to be a good day is really important Thu, 28 Jan 2021 19:24:45 -0500 Interesting https://nowcomment.com/documents/246973?scroll_to=2299469 https://nowcomment.com/documents/246973?scroll_to=2299469 Something I found interesting was how Morrie said it felt good to feel young again, and how we don't often get pampered and have people take care of us when we grow up and have responsibilities. Thu, 28 Jan 2021 13:38:39 -0500 Paragraph 219 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243457?scroll_to=2269360 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243457?scroll_to=2269360 In this paragraph I think it speaks to how these two people grew as friends. In line 1 it says "But his passion for books is real and contagious." I think that Morrie's personality is kind of rubbing off on his students when he teaches them, which speaks to his charactor Mon, 11 Jan 2021 14:00:41 -0500 Replying to Zach https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2191973 https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2191973 I agree Zach. During this whole 2 or 3 weeks that we have been looking into this field, it has enlightened me to not take any day for granted and realize how lucky I am. I think the people who made the movie did their job on raising awareness on this subject Tue, 10 Nov 2020 10:27:22 -0500 Train Station Scene https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2191970 https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2191970 In the Train Station scene Arnold and the rest of the boys are waiting for a train to take them off to Russia. While waiting Jack brings up the hunger strike and other things. I think this kind of set Jack up to walk away. Arnold is not happy with Jack but Jack says he leaves because of sensitivity. i think those topics that he tried to bring up tie right into his sensitivity of not wanting to go to Russia with the other guys. Tue, 10 Nov 2020 10:24:40 -0500 Replying https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2191962 https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2191962 I agree we know we use these insults as a society and it should not hold a place in our society. This is why it is so important to learn and grow knowledge on this issue. The more we grow and the more educated we are, we can hopefully get these terrible terms out of our vocabulary Tue, 10 Nov 2020 10:18:11 -0500 Reply to Zach https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2191950 https://nowcomment.com/documents/240008?scroll_to=2191950 I agree with you zach. People around the world use awful words to describe disabled people, and it is almost like they use it loosely. These past two weeks learning about the disabled community has brought light into my eyes on what is acceptable, and what is not. Tue, 10 Nov 2020 10:08:37 -0500 I think the most important word in the sentence help. Sometimes people just need help. It's the little things in life like helping others, and understanding what they are going through. https://nowcomment.com/documents/238472?scroll_to=2170533 https://nowcomment.com/documents/238472?scroll_to=2170533 Wed, 28 Oct 2020 13:30:08 -0400
