Antwan Antwan Reflection

254 Words2 Pages

Antwan, the way you stuck to the story line with interweaving moments of internal reflection in your memoir was very effective. I could imagine the thoughts rushing through your head at each main part of the memoir: seeing the cops in the parking lot, seeing the blue lights in the rearview, waiting on him to come back to your car with your license, and sitting there on the curb reflecting back on everything that had just happened. Even with the back and forth between what was actually occurring and what was happening in your mind, your piece had a good flow without any large jumps in time. This definitely helped me as a reader understand exactly how the night really went. I felt myself wanting to know more about you as a person separate

    Reading Reflection Paper #1 The intersection of race, family, war torn experience and cultural diversity have played a crucial role in shaping many Hmong Americans and their acculturation to American society. With the racial tension that has long grouped Hmong students as part of the American model minority stereotypes, this has hampered Hmong students’ success in K-12 schools, and it is long overdue for academic discourse in order to propel Hmong students’ educational success into new heights. It is no longer acceptable for school district to accept the model minority stereotypes and ignore the fact that Hmong students has long struggled and underserved in public schools.

    While reading Deaf Again, I couldn’t help from thinking, how I would have treated Mark through elementary school and high school. I was amazed when he said that he was so used to reading people’s lips and didn’t even notice he was deaf. I know that when I try to read people’s lips without hearing their voice it is very hard. It’s crazy how we take advantage of sound in our everyday lives as human beings. I know that I could not imagine not having the ability to hear sounds of the world.

    The reading from Kiese Laymon poses more questions to me than I had thought I would have going into the reading. I do remember reading this in 10th grade with Ms. Hodge and her asking us repeatedly, to examine the diction and phrasing of the piece. For example, on the first page, paragraph 3, there is a part that reads; “That Filet-o-fish straight cradling my lips..” and Ms. Hodge was persistent in asking us to “discover” the reason that Laymon used those words in that sentence. Now, I still have no idea why she was so persistent on asking us what it meant.

    The reason I picked this piece is because I had strong use of imagery and detail, which is something that I lacked in some of my other writing pieces. The reason why I was able to do so well on this piece is because it was about my own experience that I know very well, creative writing is my strength and I knew how to tell the reader exactly what was going on because it was mostly about my thoughts and feelings during the experience. At first, my teacher informed me about my overuse of telling instead of showing. With the help of an adult, I was able to get rid of most of the telling and show the reader what was happening through the use of imagery and hyperbole.
