5 day Reflection

Day 1
"Arkansa School Offical Acussed of anti-Gay posting"
The story is about a teacher who posted on facebook. "I will wear purple if they all kill themselfs."

Day 2
"Yet Another School Vandilized"
This is really sad to me because I have a family member who works in yonkers school and has had good offers but stays there becuase she loves the kids.

Day 3
"Fordia, Newborn killed by pitbull"
At first this does not look like a social justice piece but there was a lot of abuse on the parents part of the baby.

Day 4
"Children Everywhere Show Gay and Lesbian Support"
This is the opposite of the first article it is about kids supporting gay and lesbian rights.

Day 5
"Facebook Moniring"
It says that more then ever fb is having to shut down groups that are inappropriate on facebook.

REFLECTION

This study is desterbing but enlitening. I feel like words can not capture the emotions that fly through my mind when I read story like these. In america we pride ourselfs on being an"amazing" "great" place, but if this is true why is everything on the news so awful? We are a country that has made progress but the fact that we are diffrent and uniqe sets us apart from the rest. We as a nation can only grow if we except that each of us is different in some way shape or form, some more then otheres but still all different.
