Courage

      This man in the photo shows alot of courage because once we arrived at the Rock Island high school people saw him and laught at the way he was dressed, lots of people judge others before they get to know some one. This man got on stage with energy and courage.

      When the man got on stage some people were laughing at me, he didn't care but he reminded us in his words that " He has come out to show and tell people about his culture, and people look at me", and laughs at the way I look they're basically laughing at his culture and so I felt that the people that were laughing shouln't have been, thats just rude that some one comes out to show you how there culture is, I also was alittle upset because I have some indian in me.

       That man was a brave man, walking on the stage and telling people that you shouldn't judge me or any one else by the way they look or dress. The performance was great and it took alot of energy to do the dances. So that was the best part of the culture celebration to me!
