Being Mexican even here in America I have faced racism. Ive been called racial slurs and then it was shrugged off as if it was normal, as if degrading my humanity didnt matter.

I have seen problems within my community and although it my not have been a huge difference I did my best. Although its not the same as Amy Biehl's I would want to go there and help if I was not Mexican, that simple fact terrifies me of the racism I could encounter. I am proud of my community

Although I have never been to South Africa I'm not sure I could go during that turmoil. With such a racist time era that was acceptable. I would be afriad of facing it and how I would have coped being Mexican in such an oppressive society.

My brother who is now eleven is mixed and he has seen some of the differences in life because of this, from even our own family. Much like in Trevor Noah's book people an view others differently based on such a trivial thing. My grandparents (Moms Side) have showered me with gifts, attention, and love. Yet my brother has seen none of this that I have.

Here in America we see discrimination every day, the way we treat one another differently as if there is tiers of humanity, as if people truly are better then one another. After seeing what Amy Biehl had done with her life I feel as if we can tackle that problem and show to everyone that we are different yet we are the same.

I have read about many problems and righteous causes, however yet to do anything about it. We live in a more apathetic time period where nothing but one's self matters. Every American today knows of different problems around the globe yet few do anything. It is easy to say I support something then to go out and help that cause you "Support", but Ms. Biehl has inspired me, showing that you should help the cause you follow.

In most situations when people are asked if they would help people during the time of apartheid its easy to say yes you would. Its easy because that's what you are supposed to say. However in that time period it was dangerous to be there and help, it took time and effort. Amy Biehl is truly inspiring in this way

Amy Biehl was a Stanford Graduate turned activist. After hearing the song about Mandela on the radio she did research and saw the nightmarish lives in South Africa. Instead of sending thoughts and prayers she did something about the problems. She went to South Africa and did her best to help those she came across.

Just reading about the oppressive nature of South Africa and the way apartheid was formed there Amy felt powerfully enough to go to South Africa and try to help the people effected by such racism. Inspired by her heroes Civil Right leaders doing their best, she took the plunge most people couldn't or at least wouldn't do. Its hard to say how she might have reacted to seeing this system in place; we cant ask her how she felt but we do know that she knew the risk of being there and she never left when she could have.

While in South Africa Amy Biehl saw what the South African people were facing, how they had to live their life every day, what the oppressing system was doing to the people of that land.
