In entry #1, the writer refers to a white student who has entered the classroom
and is in the corner. The writer talks about the white student as a minority:
“for his entire life he’s been part of the majority, but as soon as he stepped
into the room, he became the minority.”
The writer shows an understanding of the social status based on race, and the
negative tension that can arise from having to live with that reality. These
notions of separation prevent human connection, not even offering an opportunity
for relationships.
