In another class that I am taking, I connected what we were learning in our class to that class. Now I would like to share information from a different class to this class. In another English class I am taking, we are reading a book about an Indian boy and the cultural differences. Some cultures are more privileged than others and there are some that are, in a way taught that they should not acknowledge these privileges. In an article we had to read, they compare this idea to the thoughts on men and women. The article talks about how white people are "taught" to not acknowledge their privileges and they compare this to men and that they are also "taught" to not think that have have more rights than women. I never really thought about this idea and I found the article very interesting!!
