It reflects the immigrants situation in the 1960s and what they had to learn to get used too

# data[].attributes.body
It shows the discrimination towards immigrants in the 1960's by describing the way Eugene's mom is subconsciously racist towards Elena due to her not knowing English and where she is from.

# data[].attributes.body
It reflects social issues and discrimination back in the 60s because of how the mother acts towards the narrator and where the narrator was forced to go to school. She was treated unfairly by the other kids and was bullied because of how she looked. Eugene's mom seems to think she's not intelligent because of how she looks and where she lived

# data[].attributes.body
I think it reflects the 60's because kids would make fun of Elena when she was minding her own business, and call her unintelligent because she did not know english that well.  Eugene's mother also did not think much of Elena because she didn't speak english that well.

this story reflects social issues in the 1960's because the problems weren't few and spread out but everywhere you looked. In schools many children would not only disrespect people that were different but bully and exclude them from activities and in different households like eugene's house his mom didn't want them to be together just because she wasn't able to speak english fluently and she assumed she was dumb and did poorly in school (this wasn't in the book but maybe because she was hispanic too).

The story talks a lot about social issues. In my opinion, the story talked about racism the most. At school, the narrator got bullied from the other girls at her school. They called her skinny and asked her if she ate rice and beans and pork chop, assuming that’s what she ate being Puertorican. When the narrator met Eugine’s mom, she assumed that the narrator was not smart and did poorly in school, just because the narrator couldn’t speak english very well.

There is a lot of racism and bullying because when somebody is different and unique people don't accept that. Elena faced many obstacles people have to deal with now because of the "beauty standards". Eugene's mother was very close minded and rude then just like many people then and now. Racism was a huge issue.

The story reflect social issues in America during the 1960's by the way Eugene's mother treated Elena. It showed this by Eugene's mother thinking less of Elena because she was an immigrant and didn't speak english that well.

I think this story reflects social issues in the 1960s because at school Elena was treated unfairly by other kids when she was jump roping. Also many kids at school thought she wasn't intelligent because she barely knew English.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the passage reflects social issues because Elena was faced with many obstacles dealing with her not being able to speak english that well and  eugene's mother and several other girls from school thought that she was not intelligent because of her little knowledge of the english language. Also because she was not born in America.

I think this story reflects social issues because the girl faces issues with bullying because of her race or her appearance. Im also pretty sure her family struggles with money a little.

The story reflected on a lot of social issues, a decade of revolution and change in politics, music and society around the world. It started in the United States and the United Kingdom, and spread to continental Europe and other parts of the globe. The 1960s were an era of protest. In the civil rights movement blacks and whites protested against the unfair treatment of races.

The story reflects social issues facing America in the 1960s because she had to overcome many obstacles. One of those obstacles being she couldn't take honors classes because her first language wasnt english.

This story shows us how people treated each other then and it wasn't very nice. When she was at school the other girls didn't treat her very kindly, they called her names and made fun of her. This bad treatment occurred outside of school as well, when she went to Eugene's house to study his mother told her that Eugene didn't need help with school and that he didn't need friends because it would make it harder on him when they leave. All of this shows us that people still showed hate and dislike for different ethnicities and the problems with race that were still happening.

I think the passage reflects social issues because the girl faces several obstacles because she can't speak English. When this story took place that was a big problem for some people.

Some ways they reflect social issues is the way Eugenes mom talked to her . She tryed to get her to leave just because she didnt talk english well. Just because she doesnt speak as good she thinks shes not as smart.
