The word “dirty” is an interesting word coming from a poverty and race context. We often think of people who aren’t “white” as “dirty.” I’ve heard it time and time again, “Dirt Mexican,” and it’s such a cruel way to describe a person who is just out here trying to work their way out of poverty. “Dirty” is a name we can’t get rid of; it is a word associated with race, financial status, and locations.

The writings of intellectuals Vavclav Havel, Adam Michnik, and Gyorgy Konrad provide ways of responding to communist regimes by explaining their own philosophies. Havel focuses his theory on a more philosophical approach that focuses on how one act of bravery can cause a wave of change to a population.

pop than they are to that of Hamlet and Shakespeare. Even as a kid, Graff understood this as a human desire to fulfill their curiosity in areas of their interests.
