Assignment 4

I don't think victims who smoke are victims of discrimination because there are some places that need to have clean air for people who can't stand the smell of smoke. Also I think that smoking is bad for your lungs and causes many diseases such as cancer throughout our society. There are some places that ban people from smoking because there are many negative side effects. Smokers should accept being banned from these public places so they won't be able to risk another person's health in danger.

Assignment 3

1. What was the author's purpose in writing this story?

The author's purpose in writing this story was to inform the reader about discrimination based on race. The author told us about an incident that happened in their life on skin color. I feel that people shouldn't judge others based on their skin color or how they look. You should really try to get to know the person before you judge anyone based on their appearance.

2. Write an experience that you might have had in dealing with diversity.

Gender: When I was going to a party I was charged five extra dollars than a girl to get in to.
