REMEMBER, no class on Tuesday, since I decided to cancel class so you could enjoy the entire week Comp I-free. However, try to finish behind the beautiful forevers for next week. There are NO questions--we'll do an in-class writing when you return to class. I'll also return your papers to you, and we'll start preparing for the Final Exam, which is your last assignment in Comp 1.
If you want some additional context for the book, here's an article just published in the New York Times about the persecution that Dalits (untouchables) face in modern India. As the book suggests, caste is still very much part of life for Indians trying to work their way out of the slums: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/17/world/asia/tell-everyone-we-scalped-you-how-caste-still-rules-in-india.html?smid=fb-nytimes&smtyp=cur&fbclid=IwAR121LSqi_J-hgY6Bm2I4bv5Me9_yQusKDpdCgKe8ZAN72Gd4lGoIipXYbQ
Enjoy the Break!
