It´s a topic that needs to be taken seriously, it separates people and harasses those who are innocent. In the short story “The New Girl”, from 2001, we are introduced to three characters, one who is the new girl, and also black. She is begging treated unfairly simply because of her skin color. Allison is being influenced by her parents for the racist way she acts, while our protagonist can´t lose her only friend, and is forced to stay silent about the situation, even though she feels uncomfortable.

People being judged by their skin color is something no one should ever have to experience in our modern society. Many people have been badly influenced by their parents or grandparents from older generations to possess this view on colored people, and some have even learned from their mistakes and have become much more openminded. That is something Mark Mitchell portrays perfect in the short story “The new girl”.

The New Girl is written by Marc Mitchell in 1967. We are introduced to the environment and the two children, Paul and Allison. Throughout the story we begin to realise the importance of the environment as it shows the way children have been indoctrinated by their parents, which is portrayed by Allison.

It has definitely gotten better through the years, but it’s still a big problem. In Marc Mitchells short story, “the new girl”, from 2001, we are introduced to three characters, one of which is black, one of which is racist and lastly our main character. Through an analysis of Allison, our main character and the new girl, it becomes clear that the racism the new girl experiences from Allison, puts our main character in a dilemma. He wants to stop the racism, but he also still wants to be friends with Allison.]]> 2022-08-30 07:13:14 UTC https://padlet.com/sofie0606/x6kkxdl7suhx/wish/2275880466 Introduction emmatranberg https://padlet.com/sofie0606/x6kkxdl7suhx/wish/2275880689 Many people have either expirienced, or know someone who has acted racist.

Most people have witnessed or experienced racism. Even though racism has toned a lot down since back then, it’s still a worldwide problem. In this case we have to go back a few years. In the story “The new girl” written by Norman Rockwell from 1967, racism is the conflict. We are introduced to three characters, one of which is black and therefore the victim in this story. We only really get the name of one character, Allison, whom are the villain in this story. Them we have the main character, which is the narrator. Through the story, we see how parents’ opinions inflict on children. How easily we are manipulated when where young. How the social hierarchy makes people do/say things they regret  And how the common society viewed the black community back then.
