Talking in the Banjar today about the recent election was very refreshing. We did not discuss Obama's victory in any of my other classes, and I'm glad that people felt comfortable enough to share their views in our class community. Just like Guru Francis was referring to, I too was excited about living through an election that will be recorded in history books and about the idea that change is coming. Guru Francis's discussion made me realize that a lot of progress still needs to be made in terms of discrimination and ignorance. I appreciate him sharing his personal experiences with facing racism to enlighten us about the prevalence of the current issue.
The two groups (the Kimball banjar and the other banjar) have improved a lot in their performance. As a part of the "other" banjar, I felt it was a little difficult to go through with the scenes because not everyone could come to class the same days. This may be problematic considering we only have a few classes left, but I think everything will work out well.
