3# Single Story 2011

"Danger of a Single Story"
1.What does it means to have a single story about a place or a community? When someone thinks about 1 idea of something and have an opinion(Prejudice).
2.Describe a single story you have heard told about your community. What is messing from that story? How could people learn more about a community? I have heard that most of all East Austin, Texas school are uneducated and have low TAKS scores. What I've learned here at this school is that Our school has made very good scores and that shows that the east part of Austin has a school that can really go far. They are messing the positive part of East Austin schools and they are only talking about the negative parts of East Austin. They ask someone who has excelled in the East Austin area to explain how East Austin is just not crazy, it is really a good place to live.
