The photo I found to be the most interesting was called “Oktoberfest, Chicago, 1996” The farthest to the right is an old women and she is hugging a young boy. More towards the middle there is a group of four people and they are holding hands and dancing in a circle. In the far back there is a crowd and some other people dancing. It makes it seem almost like it is a dance floor in the middle of a crowd or a school dance and the prom queen and king are dancing in the middle.
The quote the I choose was “Tolerance means being accepting and helpful to others. It’s about your opinion and listening to those of others. Tolerance is about justice. Tolerance is about being a good American in a free country.”

I chose this because I often have a hard time with accepting and tolerating other people. I chose it because fits me and what I should do as an American. We shouldn’t not opinionate upon anyone else until we know them. It spoke to me in many different ways. When I first glanced at I saw the words Tolerance. Opinions, and America. I knew that I should read it.
I chose the essay called “Living in this new world.” The author kept saying that his place that he lived was beautiful but there were so many bad things happening. It tells me that people want to immigrate to America because their countries are disgusting places where no one should live. It told me that his family was poor and had barely only enough money to live. They did not do fun stuff, but they all did get there degrees and went to work.
