Powell: Military Leader. How does the portrayal of Powell's after-school job

differ in each text? Explain why each author treated this event

These texts talks about the life experiences of American politician and retired general of the United States Army, Colin Powell. However, they do so in very different ways. In the case of It Worked For Me, Powell himself tells us about the jobs that he had when he was a teenager. Powell focuses on the relationship that he was able to develop with the Jewish shopkeepers he worked for. He tells us that this led to a meaningful friendship and even to his learning some Yiddish.

On the other hand, the text Colin Powell: Military Leader describes Powell's life from a third-person perspective. The author also talks about Powell's jobs as a teenager. However, he focuses on the impact that such work had on Powell's private life. The author discusses how Powell's normal teenage life was affected and benefitted by this experience. The different treatment of the subject by each text is a consequence of the ideas that each text wants to reflect. While the first text focuses on Powell's connection with a different culture, the second text highlights the impact that such early work had on Powell's character and future.
