@whatthehayll Based on these short stories and our class discussion as a whole I think that childhood trauma plays a large role in the identity of a person or character #shiftingselves

How does Yunior feel about the recent found religious devotion of Mami when Rafa is sick in “The Pura Principle?” #shiftingselves

When the line “I do not trust the God you have given us” is said what do you think the author is referring to and why are those feelings felt? #shiftingselves

[Mary @Mary76072045]

@C_M_BLASKO Agreed, I think often when we read poetry it is from many years ago and not as contemporary especially in an English course. Hearing modern thoughts though poetry was interesting. #shiftingselves

@ericahanson118 No, I think along with everything he’s experienced without the marines he would be a very different person and take on a different identity #shiftingselves

[Mary @Mary76072045]

When Vance says he wonders “whether people like us can ever truly change” I wonder how much of his young self he still holds on to with his current identity as it is so different? #shiftingselves

Sorry for the awful audio from the projector, hope this is more clear and in turn makes our message more clear that each person has their own narrative of whiteness.(we stopped the clip at 3 minutes) @lindseyE352 https://t.co/GIsrxMaoWc #shiftingselves

@lindseyE352 I agree, I think this strong relationship with his sister both shaped who he was and helped him cope with the many things he was forced to deal with at a young age.

How does the quote “we were conditioned to feel that we couldn’t really depend on people” relate back to the theme of Vance’s life shown throughout the text? #shiftingselves

@TimothyLyle DQ3: The symbol that stood out to me were the wigs in the Hairpiece exhibit. It relates back to our conversation on identity throughout different years in her life when deciding who she wants to be on this date #shiftingselves

[Mary @Mary76072045]

@TimothyLyle DQ2: I think the exhibit “Symbiosis” complicates our conversation about identity. It is looked at that these objects are “a part of him” and that losing these objects would be losing a part of him or his identity.

@sdanko97 Yes, after the move to Ohio I feel as though Cholly must feel alone and as a result resorts to drinking #shiftingselves

[Mary @Mary76072045]

If you were in Pauline’s situation caught in between her job and her husband, how would you deal with this? #shiftingselves

[Mary @Mary76072045]

@ericahanson118 Yes, I think the fact that the fabric is split down the back could represent their living situation as a whole #shiftingselves

[Mary @Mary76072045]

Is the reference of “outdoors” meaning just homeless or could it mean something deeper? #shiftingselves

[Mary @Mary76072045]

As the novel comes to an end I wonder if I were a judge on that panel how would I react when “Stagg” was revealed #shiftingselves

[Mary @Mary76072045]

@c_mcnally2 No, I don’t think that defines Marilyn at all or even her taste in literature. Many people will read certain texts or genres purely out of curiousity to navigate what their preference is. I think Monk’s reaction may have been too harsh. #shiftingselves
