And before her eyes, was Genie. Without any thought she ran. Her heart was racing, she wanted to have him back by her side, now. As he turned the corner she saw a man and woman that appeared to be dressed in all black suits. They grabbed him and hustled. Rain didn’t see much of the figures, but she ran as fast as humanly possible. As she turned the corner, Genie was nowhere to be seen. Rain felt as if she’d had everything and it was ripped away from her in a matter of seconds. She should’ve used her powers, but she was still unsure of her capabilities. Still bolting, she arrived in the hotel lobby hoping that Genie and these figures would be held up there. But no, they were out of sight completely. Rain was most definitely NOT giving up this time, she had enough of these chancy games. She asked the tall man behind the front desk and he claimed they left in a black SUV. That was it!

    Evicted, a New York Times Bestseller book written by Matthew Desmond, captured many faces of a culturally diverse population. Many parallel stories were narrated, yet each was unique and contained tremendous consequences as well as the depth of its kind.

Multiple characters with distinct and rich background stories created a colorful book…

    It is impossible not to get shocked, sad, intrigued and angry while reading Genie’s case study. It is always shocking and sad to learn that parents can abuse their own children. Besides, it is also shocking and sad to see how researchers can put their research above the well-being of another human being, especially a child. In addition, it is intriguing trying to understand what goes on in the minds of those people, parents and researchers, doing what they did. It seems that the father believed there was a reasonable purpose of treating Genie the way he did by the letter he left before killing himself, “the world will never understand” (Cherry, 2016, August 20).…
