Ethnic minorities of Oregon.
Description In the introduction to their story in Chp. 10 of our textbook, Lani Roberts and Ed Edmo stated, “We grew up in the same geographical space but lived in radically different worlds” (p. 174). Can you cite a few concrete examples from Chapter 10 about how their worlds were radically different? -The flooding of Celilo Falls in March 1957 is described by the authors as “the single most tragic and traumatic wrong done to the mid-Columbia River and to the peoples who live there” (p. 175). What were the specific consequences of this flooding discussed in their essay? -In her own words, Lani reflected on her different experiences from that of Ed’s: “How it is possible I did not notice any of these wrongs? Why didn’t my parents tell me about the injustices towards the Indians right there in our town and warn me not to ever treat another person like that? . . . Why is it that the wrongs most present in our everyday lives are the very ones most difficult to see? Is it because they are so ever-present everywhere that they become like the air we breathe, invisible?” (p. 183). Have there ever been occasions where you were personally made aware of your unearned advantages? Can you list some of these most “oblivious” privileges that you have? file:///C:/Users/Dennis/Downloads/parallellives.pdf
