This piece was really interesting to read, she started really upset and aggressive, this really interested me because it felt like I started “in the midst of thing” which can be really captivating. While reading gurba’s paper, I came across to several thoughts first it felt that the entire writing was ranting about the situation and rating in in a bad way, but in a necessary way I personally think there was probably not a better way to address her feelings, while reading I though that she is must likely just letting all her emotions go out. This piece was also not hard to understand she was really straight forward telling the experiences she had with her culture, and at true the same giving the necessary amount of details they are times that it can be really overwhelming having to Much details unless you are trying to explain something specific, but for example her talking about how her roommate wears her clothes as a costume, is a great description to visually the mockery they are doing about her culture and why the anger she expresses in this piece,

Office Hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM. I’ll be available through Zoom and will send an invitation via email that you should keep all semester. Try to join my meeting at the start of the hour, not at the end—since I may be talking to other students or have another appointment after the hour is up. If those times don’t work with your schedule, we can schedule a different time. This means you’ll have to schedule an appointment in advance. I suggest you have multiple times in mind, since your schedule may not mesh with mine!
I agree this was a great way to express her feeling and let her emotion be known to spread awareness of the situation. She informed people so they can stop assuming things about people and getting to know their culture is the best way to understand.
I agreed with everything you said and I liked how you used the example of how her roommate wears her clothes as a costume. This was really what Gurba felt about Cummins novel about Mexican immigrants.
