A big thing that I learned was I’m better at winging situations and that preparing things doesn’t always work out as planned. So, I’m a very shy individual when placed in an unfamiliar or nerve wracking situation […]

Self Direction
I have grown quite a bit in this section. I’m very disorganized and scatter-brained, for lack of a better term. Having to keep a hold of myself and manage my time and schedule has been and will […]

The time I’ve spent here at What’s the Story? has been so incredibly enlightening and beneficial that I really believe that we should get a credit for it.
Not only has it been tons of fun, but I’ve been exposed […]

I had a blast!! I loved connecting with my colleagues and turning them into friends. I felt so much more connected and closer with everyone here. For starters, I’m actually getting to know their names instead of […]

Melaina Bassette commented on the post, #4. Mind Mapping Racism! 8 years ago
To be 100% honest, I’m not really sure. I liked the thought of physically mapping things out (plus I love art) but I found mind mapping to be rather difficult. I attempted to do another mind map for the 5th blog […]

The topics from my mind map that I decided to choose were the effects and the feelings. Both are effected in different ways, positive and negative.
For effects, I learned that racism has extensive effects. For […]

Lucy,
You did a great job!! I, myself, had a bit of trouble with the mind map and I applaud you for doing such a great job! But maybe a little more detail with the topics? Just a suggestion. I love your sad face […] -

The topic of racism is a challenging opponent to wrestle since it can go wrong in many ways rather quickly, but I did my best to play the role as wrestler and tackle the topic head on. I have never been a […]

Hussein,
I agree completely. Racism is very controversial and a very difficult topic to talk about. It makes a lot of people uncomfortable, therefore it isn’t brought up in conversation. I love the facts you […] -

That is a very good question, one I may need to think about myself. I think I’m more curious about the power structures that lead to prejudices. I love that quote. I think I’ll have to find and read that book.

I am normally a pretty easy going person and not a whole lot gets under my skin. I mean, of course my brother gets super annoying super quick, but he doesn’t get under my skin too often. However, if I had to p […]

Geoff,
Thank you so much for the feedback!! I really really appreciate it. To be honest, the reason I wasn’t super specific was because I wasn’t sure how specific to be. I’ve had many encounters and I’m happy to […] -

Thank you so much!! That is really reassuring to see, actually. I sometimes have a rather hard time saying what I need/want to say. I spent two days stressing over how to figure out how to say everything, haha!

Thank you. I got pretty worried about how to phrase everything, but I tried my best. And yeah, it bothers me a lot. I had to coexist with people who saw me for something I was greater than. Not to say things such […]

Dear Hussein,
Is that how we’re supposed to start these comments? I hope I did that right. I love the quote from the anime you did. I love it very much. What anime is it from? Sorry, off topic. I really like […] - Load More
