Today, we were first locked out of the classroom, and only Saitama people were allowed to go into the classroom. Even when we were able to get in by showing the ID card, we were not allowed to have a seat, and we should keep standing. To be honest, it was a little bit of fun experiencing this, but when I imagine this is happening in ordinary life, going to school, going shopping, going to the restaurant, it would be a painful life. I felt this is complete discrimination against the Palestine people, and it is infringing the right of them. This is a problem before the bias of the media, this is an issue that people should ameliorate as soon as they can. Through these classes, I got to know about the reality of Israel and Palestine, and it was a fulfilling time.
Also, we worked on making the paragraph about Mr. Paterson's bag, one for the perspective of criticizing it, and one for complimenting it. I am looking forward to reading other people's paragraphs and know the differences between the two perspectives.
