We will look forward to seeing you next school year … Name: Class: Inside Out By Francisco Jiménez 1997 Francisco Jiménez is a Mexican-American writer and professor in Santa Clara, California. His stories are influenced by his experiences working in a migrant labor camp as a child. Skill Focus: In this lesson, you’ll practice analyzing how an author develops a narrator’s point of view. This means determining what the narrator thinks or believes and examining how the author uses actions, dialogue, and thoughts to develop this point of view. As you read, take notes on the narrator’s point of view about fitting in. [1] “I remember being hit on the wrists with a twelve- inch ruler because I did not follow directions in class,” Roberto answered in a mildly angry tone when I asked him about his first year of school. “But how could I?” he continued, “the teacher gave them in English.” “So what did you do?” I asked, rubbing my wrists. “I always guessed what the teacher wanted me to do. And when she did not use the ruler on me, I knew I had guessed right,” he responded. “Some of the kids made fun of me when I tried to say something in English and got it wrong,” he went on. “I had to repeat first grade.” I wish I had not asked him, but he was the only one in the family, including Papá and Mamá, who "Untitled" by Nathan Dumlao is licensed under CC0 had attended school. I walked away. I did not speak or understand English either, and I already felt anxious. Besides, I was excited about going to school for the first time that following Monday. It was late January and we had just returned,a week before, from Corcoran1 where my family picked cotton. We settled in “Tent City,” a labor camp owned by Sheehey Strawberry Farms located about ten miles east of Santa Maria.2 [5] On our first day of school, Roberto and I got up early. I dressed in a pair of overalls, which I hated because they had suspenders, and a flannel checkered shirt, which Mamá had bought at the Goodwill store. As I put on my cap, Roberto reminded me that it was bad manners to wear a hat indoors. I thought of leaving it at home so that I would not make the mistake of forgetting to take it offin class, but I decided to wear it. Papá always wore a cap and I did not feel completely dressed for school without it. On our way out to catch the school bus, Roberto and I said goodbye to Mamá. Papá had already left to look for work, either topping carrots or thinning lettuce.3 Mamá stayed home to take care of Trampita, and to rest because she was expecting another baby. 1. city in Central California 2. city on the Central Coast of California 1 When the school bus arrived, Roberto and I climbed in and sat together. I took the window seat and, on the way, watched endless rows of lettuce and cauliflower whiz by. The furrows4 that came up to the two lane road looked like giant legs running alongside us. The bus made several stops to pick up kids and, with each stop, the noise inside got louder. Some kids were yelling at the top of their lungs. I did not know what they were saying. I was getting a headache. Roberto had his eyes closed and was frowning. I did not disturb him. I figured he was getting a headache too. By the time we got to Main Street School, the bus was packed. The bus driver parked in front of the red brick building and opened the door. We all poured out. Roberto, who had attended the school the year before, accompanied5 me to the main office where we met the principal, Mr. Sims, a tall, redheaded man with bushy eyebrows and hairy hands. He patiently listened to Roberto who, using the little English he knew, managed to enroll me in the first grade. Mr. Sims walked me to my classroom. I liked it as soon as I saw it because, unlike our tent, it had wooden floors, electric lights, and heat. It felt cozy. He introduced me to my teacher, Miss Scalapino, who smiled, repeating my name, “Francisco.” It was the only word I understood the whole time she and the principal talked. They repeated it each time they glanced6 at me.

  • El Ignorante ■
    1 EL IGNORANTE ■ “Ignoro la verdad absoluta, pero soy humilde Ante mi ignorancia: En ella residen mi honor y mi recompensa.” (Khalil Gibran) 2 Domingo, 05 de junio 2011, Buenos Aires, Argentina. "El ocio hace que las horas sean largas y los años pasen rápido", así pensó Don Juan observando a su huésped que con un gran habano entre los dientes acariciaba a Ramiro, el perro mascota del barrio. Boris Krug, a pesar de las apariencias, se estaba preparando para una reunión crucial cuyo resultado podía afectar el destino de todo el planeta. Por este motivo se había alojado hace casi cuatro años en la pequeña habitación de Don Juan. A pesar de sus muchos recursos, ningún lugar le podía brindar la misma privacidad y seguridad suficiente para llevar a cabo su plan. Dentro de esas viejas paredes Boris escondió el objeto del deseo de todo el mundo, o más bien de la parte del mundo que sabía de su existencia. Lo escondió durante más de dos años, decidiendo finalmente de ponerlo a la venta en el comienzo de 2010. Los "clientes" más obstinados de Boris eran hombres poderosos, ricos y despiadados, que si hubieran sabido dónde vivía, sin duda habrían enviado comandos armados para matarlo y robarle su tesoro. Krug había logrado cubrir sus huellas al mundo escondiéndose en la multitud, yendo a vivir en los últimos cuatro años en una zona residencial de una metrópolis como Buenos Aires, cambiando muchas veces identidad y eliminando también el uso del teléfono celular y de su propia computadora. Para comunicarse con los potenciales compradores había asignado a cada uno de ellos una dirección diferente de correo electrónico adonde enviar una oferta y esperar la respuesta.

  • Comprendre Le Monde Musulman 3 Petite Histoire Sociale Du Voile
    Comprendre le monde musulman 3 Petite histoire sociale du voile Gilbert Clavel, 07 décembre 2017 Introduction Phénomène du vêtement islamique dont voile qui a fait débat : irruption d’un fait « étranger » aux normes communes. Question de vocabulaire : voile ? Foulard ? ou coiffe, couvre-chef. Prendre du recul : une histoire de ce bout de tissu qui couvre les cheveux, peut prendre différentes formes, est un élément vestimentaire parmi d’autres, variable selon les lieux et époques. (photos coiffes à travers âges) Ce recul permettra de se rendre compte de la diversité et complexité des significations que le port ou non port d’un fichu peut recouvrir. I. Remarques préalables : le paradoxe du vêtement en général, du voile en particulier A de multiples significations. A. Le vêtement en général a des fonctions paradoxales (le paradoxe…) : à la fois une fonction de distinction et une fonction de socialisation (normalisation) Une fonction de distinction (être autre) Une distinction des sexes : homme-femme (le vêtement comme le couvre- chef des hommes diffèrent de celui des femmes) Une distinction sociale. Ex.des castes hindoues (vêtement de soie) Une distinction culturelle ou religieuse Une distinction professionnelle : cadres costard-cravate et ouvriers en bleus de travail. Des tenues professionnelles obligatoires : cuisine… Une distinction générationnelle : le vêtement jeune Une distinction politique de contestation d’un ordre social : skinheads Une fonction de socialisation, de normalisation, voire d’uniformisation (être le même) Il manifeste l’appartenance à un groupe social (groupe jeune, classe sociale ou caste, etc.) 1 Il participe à une construction identitaire : que ce soit d’ordre social, générationnel, culturel, religieux (notamment dans les mouvements fondamentalistes : kippa, qamish, barbe, foulard, turban sikh… Le vêtement est producteur de normes sociales qui s’imposent aux individus inconsciemment : être habillé comme les autres, au moins ceux de mon groupe.

While the inauguration had been planned as a major celebration to mark the coming of oil, it soon became a highly contested political event. That day, with new President Mahamadou Issoufou coming from the capital Niamey (located in the west of the country) to Zinder to mark the occasion, youths set alight tire street barricades and clashed with police. The protests turned into violent riots some days later with youth clashing with security forces in the streets, burning down a police station and looting a bank. Two people were killed and several were injured. Using in-depth ethnographic material collected over 13 months of fieldwork from 2011 to 2014 within the methodological framework of the extended case method, the book takes the event of the oil refinery’s inauguration
