	omanson27 In my book, my main character Natasha is being deported to Jamaica, but hasn’t told the boy she met yet. “But he doesn’t know what I know. I'll be a resident of another country tomorrow” (Yoon) this relates to the ted talk “Sweet, Difficult sounds” By I.M. Desta Which is about a young girl who moved to America from Zimbabwe and was struggling talking to people or in front of people at her school. After her aunt helped her, she became strong and read her poem in front of everyone successfully. The problem she had was talking to people, she couldn't get herself to, so everyone thought she didn’t understand them. “Can you speak English?’ Ashley asked. Nothukula stared at her. It wasn’t that she didn’t understand English. They had spoken it at school back home…” (Desta) 4 weeks ago By tsmit... If Beli didn’t come from the Dominican Republic, she would be a very different person. She would be different because growing up in the Dominican Republic is what shaped her life. Beli went through a lot of trauma and hard experiences there, and those experiences made her strong. If she didn’t grow up there, she might not have gone through the same pain. She might have had an easier life and been more open with people. She might not have been as tough or as protective of herself. For example, her experience under the regime and her abusive relationship with the gangster taught her to be strict with Lola. Also, if Beli didn’t come from the Dominican Republic, her culture would be different. This would affect how she acts and how she raises her children. She would not be the same if her past were different. 1 month ago By caust... jgreenwood27: Why do you think Tom makes the decisions he makes?

	kbrault27 My character doesn’t get judged, but also doesn't judge others. She picks on Daniel calling him “red tie” (Yoon) but that's about it. In the ted talk “Sweet, Difficult sounds” By I.M. Desta the little girl named Nothukula got made fun of and or judged because she had a hard time speaking English in front of her peers. “They look at me as if I am funny” (Desta) 4 weeks ago By tsmit... In my book “the tyrant’s daughter” by J.C carelson, my main character, Laila, often judges the Americans around her school for how they act and dress because it is much different than how people act back in her homeland “That she can feel so at ease in her flawed skin is astonishing to me. Emmy must feel me looking at her. Judging her. Because her smile stiffens slightly and she takes a small step back, a wounded expression on her face” – j.c carleson The tyrant’s daughter 4 weeks ago By iraft...
