I think it was great that it went over more than one disability. I think a lot of people get hyper-focused on one disability and forget the rest. Why do you think that the author chose not to just focus on one disability? #xuengl205

@katehenny17 It confused me too. I thought the confusion was good though. I think that it showed that there is no way to ever truly understand disabilities. #xuengl205

@claire3english How do you think that people can get more educated regarding disabilities?

@Mary182118 I think that they didnt show the face of the blind women so more people can openly relate to her. when you get more specific less people can relate. #xuengl205

Is it better to be ableist on purpose or by accident? If it is an accident what does that say about the person? Can it be considered on purpose cause they didn't educate themselves- so indirectly on purpose? #xuengl205

@Maria70993484 I found it intriguing as well. Maico is ableist at the truest form even if he doesn't know it. #xuengl205

@Eric51402 It will never happen. People love judging others so they don't judge themselves. #xuengl205

[person @unicorns00343]

Why do people think they have the right to judge others? How much further advanced would society be if people didn't judge each other? #xuengl205

Do you think there is a bigger significance to the seeds? Why or why not? #XUENGL205

I like how they mentioned sesame seeds because they are such small seeds yet they can grow to 5 feet tall or more. I think this shows that no matter how "small" you are in society you can overcome it and grow to be as "big" of a person as possible. #XUENGL205

As someone who went to a high school where most of the school was below the poverty line, I saw the divide between classes. I can also say the divide grows as you get older. I think the class divide was focused on a lot in this. How can we help erase the divide? #XUENGL205

@GraceBagadiong1 @xuengl205 I think that as many people in the lower classes think that they are less important and at times less of a person than the upper class. I think at times it can feel like the upper class owns the lower class that works for them.

The fact that the maid took things no one noticed really stood out to me. Some people are so rich they don't notice things gone while others are struggling to get the bear necessities. #XUENGL205

@claire3english I agree I think that classism is a very big issue and one that is not talked about nearly enough. As someone who when to a very economically diverse high school, I very much appreciate the fact that we are talking about it. #xuengl205

When I think about the tension between classes I really just think about them in America this opened my eyes. #XUENGL205

These readings made me think of the book "The Glass Castle" by Jeannette Walls. It is about how she grew up in poverty but found her way out. Throughout the entire book, the question of whether or not poverty is a choice was present and I think this does the same. #XUENGL205

@mccanne1xu I noticed this too and it caught me off guard as well that they seem uncomfortable with financial stability. It seemed to go against what society thinks they would want. #xuengl205

[person @unicorns00343]

@engl205 Honestly, even with the subtitles I was still confused and overwhelmed. It truly shows the tensions between two social classes in a light I'm not used to. #engl205

@CharlieS_42 I think that "be a man" puts people in a box. I think that how Atta discusses this starts to tear down some of the stereotypes regarding men. #xuengl205
