Write about a truth you were afraid to accept.

 Prompt Response: A truth I was afraid to accept was that things could get better if you tried, which at first I was always clinging onto self pity. Over the course of time, I realized that sometimes just one small action can make a difference whether the impact on you was big or small.

Summary: I was not here in class, but I'm guessing you either gave out paper work or a (project - least likely). 

Reflection: Today I did not learn anything since I was not here in class today for a fractured arm I'm trying to heal. This impacted me by making me feel a tingle of guilt because I thought that karma was getting to get me for whatever I did wrong last week. In the future I will use this experience to do more rights rather than wrongs for a better outcome.

When Celie says, “The God I been praying and writing to is a man. And act just like all the other mens I know,” she expresses disappointment, betrayal, and disillusionment. Discuss a moment in your own life when something you believed in turned out to be different than what you imagined. How did this realization shape your identity or worldview?

 Prompt Response: A moment in my life where I had something I believed in and was different from what I imagined was when I believed in Santa Claus and the tooth fairy, it was until one eventful night of waking up that I found out and connected the dots together that it was really my mom that got me the present! This realization made me shape my identity/worldview by making me more susceptible to things and made me question the truth.  Summary: Today in class we read over letters 66-70 of The Color Purple, and started on a found poem that involves using quotes from what we read and turning it into a poem which has to consist of 10 long lines. Reflection: Today I learned that Celie has started gaining a deeper understanding of herself and the awareness of the people around her as she starts to delve into her own truth of things even if she is wrong she is affirmed into what she believes. This impacted me by making me feel respect for Celie as she is growing and maturing as her ...

Clothing is often tied to identity and culture. Describe an outfit or style you like that may not fit what others expect from you. How have people responded, and what does this reveal about stereotypes in society?

 Prompt Response: An outfit/style that I like that may not fit what others expect from me is the gothic/emo style of clothing and the way I present it due to my own personality. People might respond to this nowadays positively as it's something new that you don't see everyday that really show's that you're not like others, however if it was back in the early 2000's it might be seen as cringy and weird. This reveals about stereotypes in society that while nowadays their are a lot of positive things about it and seen in a good light, there are others even from back then that may not like the style due to their own experiences and from what they know/see.  Summary: Today in class we watched a short film about a girl having imposed masculine stereotypes on her and answered some questions and then worked on our presentations.  Reflection: Today I learned that stereotypes can tie down to the way we dress ourselves. This impacted me by making me feel knowledgeable in this ...

Describe a time when you felt completely lost.

 Prompt Response: A time where I felt completely lost was when I was going through the motions of life and not being able to do anything about it only facing failure over and over to the point I was debating whether I should give up or not. It was a suffocating and despairing moment of my life to go through something like that which led me towards a downward spiral externally and internally about my problems. As well as another moment where I felt completely lost was moving schools and making new friends, it felt isolating and bad to make new friends since they were pretty much the equivalent of strangers.  Summary: Today in class we presented each of our masks about our cultural identity. As well as go over what makes up for our cultural identity.  Reflection: In class I learned about the things about my peers and what makes up for their cultural identity today. This impacted me by feeling a bit surprised over the things I didn't know about their culture as well as learn...
