Brief Summary Of Epilogue To Feliciano's Narrative

Improved Essays
We can’t stop here, Ludwig! We still have to find Lovino and Antonio…” Feliciano whined, as he threw Ludwig’s hand away and headed down the stairs, into the darkness. We were all shocked at Feliciano’s decision to ignore Ludwig, but we had no choice but to follow him down the stairs and into the darkness. Not soon after, we heard a scream and some sobbing.
“That was Feliciano! We have to hurry!” Ludwig yelled, running as fast as he could towards the source of the scream. We followed him and found Feliciano sitting on the ground, looking at Lovino. Lovino was sitting on the ground sobbing his heart out and covered in blood.
“How dare you leave me, bastard!” Lovino screamed out in frustration.
“That can’t be…” Alfred started, unable to finish. I looked away from Antonio’s dead body. It was hard to believe that he was alive not too long ago.
“We have to go.” Ludwig commanded, pretending to be brave.
“No! I have to stay with Antonio!” Lovino pleaded, refusing to leave Antonio. Lovino had wrapped his arm with Antonio’s just to prove he didn’t want to leave Antonio behind.

“Antonio wouldn’t want you to stay here.” I continued, helping him up and unwrapping the two arms. Ludwig helped Feliciano stand up once again. We kept going to where we found a room full of monsters. This room had the heaviest atmosphere, making me want to vomit. Each monster had their own special characteristic. Some were on the wall, spitting at us while some others were on foot, walking around. Majority of them were purple and had huge, black eyes that felt like they stared straight into my soul. The monsters on foot were all different heights. “What are those things?” Ludwig asked me, looking disgusted by everything in the

    Today’s society, for better or worse, is built around judging others by the way they look. In the novel Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, there is a lot of judging people by only the way they look, which prevents from getting to know the person. The book is surrounded by the monster that in the beginning is very innocent but through the reactions of the people is forced to become a bad person. Mary Shelley uses critical race theory to demonstrate how society instead of trying to understand they reject people's background due to their assumption and misconception.…

    Jose Vargas’s story is one of fear, secrets, and struggles with a glimmer of hope at the end. You may see all of his struggles as just a mass of problem after problem without any significance in the individual stories. I do not believe this to be true. I believe one story in particular was used as an excellent tool. The story of Jose’s coming out as a homosexual was used to show what was to come.…

    Ostensibly, the book is about a water-rights squabble in a small town in New Mexico. But the book is so much more: the differences between the Mexican and American cultures, believing in miracles, political dissidence, and all of the ridiculously awesome characters that the author breathes life into. There's Amarante Cordova, the ageless wonder who has been dying since birth, only to outlive many of his own children; there's one-armed Onofre Martinez, who claims that he lost his appendage to a butterfly; pugnacious Joe Mondragon, the pint sized protagonist who starts the whole squabble; Milo, his guilt ridden lawyer who has to reconcile his white American background with his Hispanic wife; Horsethief Shorty, the foreman at the Dancing Trout…

    In Punished, Victor Rios examines the ways in which the discrimination of the criminal justice system and general society against poor black and Latino boys pushes them towards future criminal involvement. In Chapter 5 Rios describes the criminal actions of these young men as acts of survival or of resistance against the system which oppresses them. In a system which immediately criminalizes them, the young men are unable to get jobs or educations. Without the education and learned cultural capital obtained for a higher social class, they are unable to socially advance and experience class reproduction. They must then resort to criminal actions for economic survival and social dignity.…

    Antonio’s first reaction to death was negative, as he can be seen running away from the murder scene of Lupito, or fleeing from the places where others had died. Antonio was understandably disturbed by the deaths he had witnessed. Death is a traumatic event, especially when it is witnessed up close, and in as gruesome of a way as Antonio did many times in his young life. After his first encounter with it, Antonio had a dream in which he understands that he is “growing old” (26). This self-realization was essential in Antonio becoming a man.…

    The fourth book assigned was Victor Rios’, Punished: policing the lives of Black and Latino boys. Rios’ book chronologizes black and Latino boys in Oakland as they encounter various forms of punishment at very stages in their lives. Young Latino and black men are the marginalized group in this book. What Rios criticizes and blames for the egregious policing of these young men is the youth control complex: “The youth control complex is a ubiquitous system of criminalization molded by the synchronized, systematic punishment meted out by socializing and social control institutions” (40). Rios breaks the complex down further into material and symbolic forms of criminalization.…

    A lot can be deciphered out of The Things They Carried, by Tim O’Brien. Almost everything that he said had a secluded meaning to it. Some of the things he says make you sit there for a little while and think about what he was really trying to convey.

    Punished was written by Victor Rios and published in 2011. Rios wrote the book to chronicle the challenges young black and Latino boys faced within their improvised, highly criminalized neighborhoods. Rios grew up in Oakland, California and lived in the ghettos, mainly a poor, minority community; he was also a gang member involved in his fair share of trouble. Rios began looking for answers to the plights he and his community endured after the murder of his friend while they ran from a rival gang member. A conversation with the police whom Rios claimed told him they wanted the gangs to kill each other off, made him seek answers to the prevalence of violence that plagues poor populations.…

    In Frankenstein, Mary Shelley talks about a monster, who transforms from an innocent individual to an evil person at the end. The entire story revolves around the monster and his creator, who abandons the monster at the time of monster’s creation. Furthermore, the society rejects the monster and this rejection changes the harmless being to a harmful creature. Thus, Shelly comments on the idea of human nature being learned and not innate through her tale of the monster. I strongly believe Mary Shelley’s portrayal of the monster in the story depicts human transformation based on their experience in the society.…
