We're Breaking FreeThis was probably one of the best projects I had ever done in my opinion, because not only did we express our creativity and put all our effort in it but we also broke free from the stereotypes society has based upon us. For example, I am Hispanic; typically society views me as lazy, uneducated, eats tacos everyday, etc. I broke free by showing people that I am more than that. Although some of these might be true for other people, I think it is not right to put everyone else in that category because everyone is different. And that is why I wrote a poem named Letter to Society. This poem was made to sound like if I were writing a letter to society, in this poem I talk about how we are discriminated against depending on what your skin tone is like and how we are judged by religion, gender, or nationality. And this is important because its what we live with on everyday of our lives and we cannot change until we change ourselves and that's what this project mainly took place on. Changing ourselves in order to change our future.
