What have you learned that helps you better understand his perspective and his writing: 349994459 https://padlet.com/349994459/Bookmarks/wish/2163388068 This story is a reminder to me of the mistakes we have made in history that we should not allow to be repeated and of Canadian racism.]]> 2022-04-28 22:04:36 UTC https://padlet.com/349994459/Bookmarks/wish/2163388068 Two quotes 349994459 https://padlet.com/349994459/Bookmarks/wish/2163554394 "They walked Virgil back in. He was bloody around the
mouth and there was a cut on his temple. He wiped his
mouth with the back of his hand as he sat down and stared
at his hands, which he'd folded on the table. Then they
walked another of us out. For the next twenty minutes they
came in and took one member of the Moose after another.
Each time they brought someone back the smell of urine
got stronger. When only I was left, the tall man leaned on
our table."

This quote stands out to me becaue of the violence occurs in the event and it was very brutal. The quote shows how the white feel superior and look down on the Indigenous. They felt humilated losing to Saul and his team and wanted wanted to express their anger out of the Moose. This is also related to the theme of racism, and how Saul has to deal with this throughout his life. It also reminded him of the abuse and punishement he received in St. Jerome.

"I see it already," I said.
"You do?"
"The lines," I said. "They create space. The space you
have to move into to make it happen."
"You see that?"
"Yes."
And I did. I can't explain how it came to me, but I could
see not just the physical properties of the game and the
action but the intent. If a player could control a measure
of space, he could control the game. The boys on the ice
lurched and skimmed, oblivious to anything but the rubber
sliding between their sticks. But I could see how a skater
might move, where he might go to gain the advantage of
space, how he might move the puck along to get it down ice
and into the nest of twine that was the net.

This quote stuck with me because saul finds himself very talented in hockey. This quote shows saul's love for hockey and his natural talent. He was able to observe the ups and downs of the game and how to understand how players can gain an advantage on the ice. This is a theme related to passion.
