Discussion questions for Monday
This is Gloria Anzaldua who wrote "Speaking in tongues" and heres the questions to go along with it:
Q: On page 321 Anzaldua says "Fear acts like a magnet, it draws the demos out of the closet and into the ink in our pens" Can you think of a time in your life when fear has instigated you to do something?
Q:A quote from page 319 says "I'm scared of writing, but more scared of not writing" In this time period do you think you would of took the risk to write, or would you of choose to follow society and not write or keep it strictly private?
This here is Audre Lord who wrote "A Burst of Light: living with cancer" and heres the questions to go along with the reading:
Q:On page 3 Lorde says "How could I shut them out of the most important decision of my life?" She is referring to her decision about how to handle having cancer and is deciding whether or not its the right decision to tell her children. Since we can relate to her children being in college, if your mom had cancer would you rather her tell you or wait till a break or a more convenient time?
Q: On page 1 Lorde says " I felt the battle lines being drawn up within my own body" She was very proactive, researching and finding another doctor. If this happened to you would you be as proactive trying to learn as much as you can or would you just let the doctors handle it?
