Part I:
Actively Read " Of My Friend Hector and My Achilles Heel" by Michael Kaufman

Answer the following in your notebook:
Background: Kaufman's purpose is to demonstrate how easily it is to form prejudices and segregate oneself from other people based on assumptions.
* Keep the concept of perspective in mind while reading this piece. Define perspective . Provide a concrete example of perspective based on the outside world (something you learned about or read about... this can be an example based on current events, pop culture, etc.. Your connections should be academic) Now take that example and apply it to Kaufman's piece.

1. Identify one theme in the article. It can be a statement of theme.  Discuss this theme as it relates to perspective and prejudice in one paragraph.  Use in text citation. For instance, "It is imperative that you incorporate concrete examples into your expository paragraphs" (Brady 54).  Note that the period goes after my name and the parentheses.. Why? B/c the statement belongs to the source you are giving credit.

2. What do you think of Kaufman? What did you like about his essay? Can you relate anything from Kaufman's article to  life (something you heard about? read about? learned about?) ?

ENJOY  YOUR BREAK!!!
