Since Melinda is a young female, it’s easy for people to take advantage of her. This has caused Melinda to be unable to verbalize her emotions and how she is feeling which leads her to isolate herself. In the excerpt Melinda talks about how she does not fit into any of the groups at her school and refers to herself as “clanless” since her old friend group is split up and she has no one to talk to about what has happened to her. As a result Melinda does not live in the moment due to her isolation. “ It is 8:50 in the morning. Only 699 days and 7 class periods until graduation.” She says.

Mellinda is a white female in high school. She is facing oppression due to one of her actions in the summer. She called the cops at a summer party. everyone thought she was just being a bad person and no one questioned her on why she did what she did;she got raped and no one listened to her. I think her identity as a white person did not affect her privilege. usually, people think white people are the ones to get the most privilege. But, Melinda was still discriminated against because of what she did. No one paid mind to the identities she conforms in. But, she is a teenagers, and usually teenagers are impulsive and passive aggressive. The high school party Melinda ruined was very important for her classmates. If she was an adult, no one would be mad and people would be more comprehensive. The social group of teenager influences everyone's immaturity of such a sensitive topic and the experience Melinda had to go through.

Melinda's race and social class causes her to experience privilege because since she is white and is in a moderate social class, she doesn't have to worry about the cops underestimating what happened to her during the end of the summer party. Her race is white, and research shows how whites have a better relationship with police other than people of color so the fact that the police has her side shows privilege. And her social class is privileged because she is able to afford emergency or a phone to call for help with out any problems.

Melinda’s race and class have cause her to experience privilege because she’s with “a lot” of money and she’s white which in today’s society already gives you all times of privilege.Her race as “white” gives her some privilege because say getting pulled over for instance the cop if white would maybe not even give her a ticket just a warning but if she was someone of color it probably wouldn’t go that way.So being “white” does cause her to experience privilege.

Melinda's gender and age cause her to experience oppression. Because she is a teenager, she might not be taken seriously when she tells people, like other teens, what had happened to her during the party. Her friends, who are also teens, decided to ignore her after what had happened. Melinda was experiencing oppression even in her own social group. Melinda's friends were also mainly girls but none of them reached out to her to ask why she called the cops because teens tend to make their own cliques, or "clans" as Melinda calls them. If you don't have the right attitude or like the right things to fit in a clan, you're not accepted.

Melinda's gender and age I believe has caused her to experience oppression because being her age and gender has put her in a vulnerable position which caused her to be raped and oppressed. Also since she is a certain age she is around people in her age group and it alters her experiences in her life because people around her age group can react to things pretty dramatically and be extremely hatful and mean. For example her life experiences such as rape led to her calling the cops ruining a party which has caused people within her age group to treat her unfairly and oppress her where as if she were older and around older people they might have reacted differently like asking why or something and finding out what happened and helping her instead of just cutting her off completely and hating on her.

Melinda's gender and age (being female and a teenager) has caused her to experience oppression because when she called the cops everyone thought that she ruined the party and that she was just a boring girl all this comments and hate against her influenced her life and made her insecure of herself. This is what cause her to experience oppression because they don't even know what happened and she just feels as a marginalized person influenced by her identity. "The driver pulls away from the curb while I stand in the aisle. Where to sit?" "I am clanless. I wasted the last weeks of August watching bad cartoons. I didn’t go to the mall, the lake, or the pool, or answer the phone. I have entered high school with the wrong hair, the wrong clothes, the wrong attitude. And I don’t have anyone to sit with."- Valeria

In today's society, being a young woman causes people to face oppression. For example, being only a teenager, Melinda is not taken seriously and her opinions are not listened to nor valued. Also, being a female causes people to ignore the importance of her situation. As shown in Excerpt A, no one cares to listen as to why Melinda called to cops and ignores her.
