Take a moment to consider the perspective of the people on the following list. Choose the perspective of one person for your focus. Write a short paragraph that shows you understand the person’s perspective as you try to put yourself “in their shoes.” Consider these questions: What might be this person’s struggles? How does the person see the world around him or her? What decisions would you make if you were in this person’s place? Be sure to use specific examples or textual evidence from research, the readings in this class, or your own experiences and knowledge.
