Homework 3/18/10
1. What is the name of your story?
2. What outcome did your group pick for this week?
3. In one at least two paragraphs, explain how the outcome is related to your story.
1. The name of my story is Bounty.
2. My group choose the outcome, student analyzes George Saunders stories through the lens of sociological imagination.
3.In this story the narrator is trying to deal with different issues. One of this issues is that he’s a flawed. A flawed is a person that is physical deformed. Also the narrator is facing racial discrimination. He is a black flawed man. He has to cover himself from people to hide his flaw.
One line that shows discrimination against flawed and black people is “Keep the American gene pool pure.” For me this line shows how people with no physical deformation or white people discriminate the flawed and blacks. It is also adverting people to do not interact with them.
