Final Day of Project
My partner and I presented today and overall, I think it went well. As we played our podcast, people laughed at some of the things that were said about the issues of immigration and that just goes to show how serious this topic is and knowledge needs to be spread about these kinds of things. Mr Hinman even said, if you are making fun of immigrants, you are offending your ancestors or someone close to you. I think the project, although short, got people to think that immigration is no joke, these people are just trying to feed their families and live a better life. We exposed how our peers think about immigration. Hopefully, after today, everyone that listened to our podcast got something out of it because it wasn't meant as a joke and shouldn't be taken as one. What I enjoyed from this project was creating the podcast, it was fun to make edits and interview people. I just wish I would've put in music...

Yeah, I agree that immigration shouldn't be taken as a joke. I have to admit I was really mad after the presentation, mainly because of what some people had said in their interviews. I'm Mexican so I took it personally and I think that making jokes about something like that is extremely rude. Maybe they hadn't realized they were being racist, but they were. The project was a really good project though.
