I came to TFA feeling proud of attending public school in San Antonio--thinking my experience was so diverse. Yet, I come to Institute and am around SA corps members and then am forced to confront the privileges that come with being from my school district. This was a revelation I had coming here.

Jack and Brian's session had me thinking about how that division led to a lot of misconceptions about what was "normal" growing up. I'm interested to explore this more as I move to Colorado Springs, where the majority of the overall population is white, but my district is predominantly POC. I'm curious about what cultural divides may exist, as well as differences in values, in a relatively small place, and what I can do to educate myself about my new locality's cultural intricacies.]]> 2018-07-03 13:49:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mbmason2/o0rrom5cmtto/wish/269275826 henry_deruff_18 https://padlet.com/mbmason2/o0rrom5cmtto/wish/269276165 I tend to think of California where I grew up as a pretty progressive place. Looking at the map of child trafficking in the last year, though, I can see that the state (esp. the Bay Area, the Central Valley, and the LA area) are some of the worst spots in the country, as is Colorado.
