How does a story captures a realistic problem to get the audience attention and make them read more about it? The line that I like from the video is when Kiese Laymon shared a a short passage about the night of the Rodney King verdict, The quote I like is ” I didn’t want to teach white folks not to steal. I didn’t want to teach white folks to treat us respectfully. I wanted to fairly fight white folks and I wanted to knock them out.” The reason why I like this quote is that it shows that the narrator is tired of white people on mistreating minorities and the only way to stop racism is to fight them back. It tells on how their are minorities that are tired of the unfairness and are thinking that violence will solve the answer. The three stories that were read from the videos tells on how the story is serious and has realistic problems that could related to the readers. The stories are interesting due to the topics that are mention, but I was interested on the Rodney King Verdict paragraph. The reaction that I have informed me that the previous reading that I have read tells that the stories will be relatable and tackle serious subject the people face. The expectation that I have when it comes to these author that I read from their passage shows that they are not holding back when it comes to their stories, they will go to serious subject to the story to relate to the audience or make the audience have a new view on the subject and release on how the story is impactful when it comes to the writing. And shows on how different people could have different types of problems weather could be racism, sexism or identity.
I like how you talked about the author’s expressing themselves and how open the author’s are towards the audience.
I liked everything you wrote, I see that you understood the video very well, and put a lot of effort into summarizing and giving your comment on the video. Also, that was one of the quotes that I liked the most.
i liked how you summarize the video and talk about the authors up bringing and how you understood it so well.
