Struggle can be defined as a problem that you need help on. Some may start up a fight, that struggle is valuable. It is valuable because struggle could help you put your self up and be independent. Others affirm that struggle is unfavorable. Some examples could be that people could struggle of poverty on education, living conditions health and etc. Much investigation has been focus on this topic. This essay will argue that even though what some affirm, struggle, specifically poverty and racism, is multidimensional and has implications that can harm us.
Struggles are multidimensional. We see this in Breaking Through. For example one of the struggles, Panchito experiences being caught by the Border Patrol – deportation (See Figure 1). This struggle causes him to live in fear for ten long years from the time he was four. Some examples from the text that provide evidence of his fear are when he says, “As I grew older, my fear of being deported grew.” (Jimenez, 2). Another example of fear is “I lived in constant fear for ten long years from the time I was four to fourteen years old.” (Jimenez,1). An example of deportation, I also got a quote from the book that said, “We were hauled into the Border Patrol van and driven to San Luis Obispo, the immigration headquarters.” (Jimenez, 6). Therefore, Panchito had fear of being deported back to Mexico.
Along the lines of struggle being multidimensional, we can also analyze its implications (See Figure 2). Once again using Breaking Through Panchito struggles with poverty. Poverty affects Panchito’s education, treatment, living conditions, and health. There are examples from the book that show the implications of poverty. One example is “I did not want to return to Mexico because I like going to school, even though it was difficult for me, especially English class.” (Jimenez, 2). This shows of how poverty impact on Panchito’s education and living conditions because Panchito and his family are moving around to many places. Second, example is "She rubbed the red spots with garlic everyday, and within a couple of weeks they where gone. The strong smell not only got of the ringworms, but it also kept my schoolmates away." (Jimenez, 12). This shows how poverty affects on their health because they don’t have enough money to pay for their medication. The third, example is "The strong smell not only got rid of the ringworm, but it also kept my classmates away. Whenever I came near them, they yelled, "You stink like Mexican!" and sprinted away from me, holding there nose." (Jimenez, 12). This shows how poverty affects treatment because Panchito is Mexican. My last example is “From that day on, for the next ten years, while we travel to place to place throughout California, following the crops and living in migrant labor camps, I fear being caught by the Border Patrol." (Jimenez, 2). This is also shows poverty to living conditions because they didn’t have a specific home they just lived at labor camps near crops but always having fear to be caught by the Border Patrol. This all show that many things affected poverty on Panchito.
Besides, implications of struggle in Breaking Through, there are implications in other sources. Poverty affects living conditions in many ways. We (the people) go around, other people not even knowing that other people are struggling with living conditions. A partner did a research on living conditions. She said, “Without a place to live where someone feels safe and can survive, people cannot be constructive members of our society. If people don’t have proper homes and living conditions then children and families can not flourish and learn and sometimes they won’t be happy.” (Poverty Housing Defeats Families). Meaning that if they don’t have a good place to live, like to survive and they can’t give to our society. The families and children can’t flourish (grow) and the children can’t learn and they would be sad. A second example would be form my other partner. She said “ Seventy-eight percent of the non-poor live in homes their families own, compared to 41 percent of the poor and 24 percent of those living in poor, single-parent families.” It means that some people live in homes other, on benches (homeless people), and some are single parents (Living Conditions of American Families). Last example. What I said, “People who are poor are always in danger. They have twice the crimes where they live and almost likely to be injured. But single parent families are more likely to have triple more meaning having more crimes.” What I mean here is that people on poverty don’t have safe house or they don’t live in safe streets, so there could be many crimes such as a thief breaking a house or get killed. What it means of single parents that parents that live lonely are more likely to be in a crime because they are very desolated (Living Conditions of Americans Families). All in all poverty affects living conditions in many ways. Getting out of the details of living conditions there are also implications on treatment that were also found in other sources. There are many people that are treated differently and unfair because of their race or money or many others. For an example one of my partners said, “Why is it that public policy is to treat poor people as if they did not exist? For years, policy makers from both parties have ignored the suffering of poor families. To make matters worse, policies currently pursued by the governor are designed to push more poor people into the shadows,” (Why Do We Treat Poor People as if they Were Simply Invisible). And this is very true why do we treat people like if they are never there or like if the don’t live in the world. The government just ignores what is happing to the poor families that live in streets and they are suffering so much. The government is here to help us and protect us, and that’s and example of how the government does not treat us well. Another example of treatment quote is “ Obama has vowed to make class warfare, specifically “income inequality,” the focus of the 2014 midterm campaign, declaring it the “defining challenge of our time.” What he didn’t mention is the inconvenient truth that income inequality has increased more during his presidency than that of any predecessor, thought predictably his administration spokesman, Lay Camey, blamed Bush.” (Obama’s Class Warfare Deception). It means that when he became president he was going to stop poverty but now it just grew bigger. A last example is, “Being poor in America can, quite literally, become a crime. Enrenreich recalls the story of a 62-year-old homeless Vietnam veteran in a wheelchair who was arrested while sleeping in a homeless shelter because he had an outstanding warrant. His warrant was for criminal trespassing due to the fact that he had been previously caught sleeping in the street. So, in fact, they arrested him for being homeless.” (Poverty Treated As a Crime In the U.S.) This is explaining that they don’t treat people good like the 62 year old Vietnam veteran who was arrested just because he had an outstanding warrant and that’s unfair. All in all with all these research of treatment, people aren’t treated right as their rights says.
As we get out of poverty affecting treatment now we go in into health. I say health is one of the worst conditions in the U.S. An example of health is “When you’re poor you are more likely to be obese. You don’t get enough of healthy foods and you don’t get good nutrients. You are more likely to be addicted to cigarettes.” In this occasion it saying that our health is not good because of what we consume such as fast food, not eating our fruit and vegetables, and smoking cigarettes. Other say, “If you are poor, you are more likely to develop many illnesses, more likely to become injured, more likely to become disabled, and more likely to die early. You are less likely to have access to high-quality medical care- or any medical care at all- and less likely to have access to preventive services.” (Poverty and Health in the United States). In this statement is trying to say if you are poor you can’t pay like medical care so it’s easy to get sick or be harm or die very early age just because poor cant pay for medical care. Other say the same thing but with family members, “If you are poor you are less likely to have adequate knowledge about threats to your health of your family members. It is less likely to know how to navigate or complex health care. You are less likely to receive medical care from providers who are sensitive to your needs.” (___________). It says that if you are poor is to have good satisfactory in quality of health and health for your family members. And you will also know less how to control health care and people who help you for your needs won’t give you medical care. All in all is that is mostly the government won’t give you medical care because your poor and you don’t have money and you may die of sickness or others.
There not just implications of poverty in health, treatment, or living conditions but also education. Many people don’t like school at all but they don’t know what they are saying. If you don’t go to school you can’t go to college and graduate to have a nice job. Also many kids want to go to school to have education and other kids are saying that they don’t like school. Some people have examples of education such as, “In The Hunger Games, poverty affects education. How? Because Katniss’s sister Prim does not go to school because she has to work to make money.” (The Hunger Games). In this quote its saying that than Prim going to school she works so she could get money for her family. Others have examples from the book saying something the same in The Hunger Games, “Don’t you have to be in school?” I ask. “Not during harvest. Everyone works then.” Says Rue.” (The Hunger Games). This example is very good because in the book Rue is telling Katniss that she doesn’t go to school because in her District they all have to work in harvest time. Other say something different that isn’t from The Hunger Games, “Think about it: Every educated person has a job and a way out of poverty. So education is a fundamental solution to poverty.” (Kathleen Blanco Quote). It says that all who went to school that have education have jobs and aren’t in poverty and that education will be a method to not be in poverty. Overall we and many other kids need education to have jobs after but poverty are blocking ways of many kids and very sad. We have to discover a way to help kids in poverty so they have a bright future ahead of them.
In conclusion, this essay has shown the implications of poverty. Some may argue that poverty is good for you and that it could help you to be responsible, and could teach you a lesson of you should work to not be in poverty, and to keep up in school. I disagree and I believe that poverty affects one’s education, living education, treatment, and health because many people don’t deserve it because they can do stuff because of their race.
Poverty is not the only struggle that has negative implications; Racism is just as damaging. Racism is a belief among the color of the skin of a human that depends of your color and racism that you could do things. An example of historical racism is Martin Luther King Jr. daughter name, Yolanda Denise King. His father told her to never go to this place name funhouse because black kids weren’t aloud there. She had tears in her face of sadness of the racism of black kids that didn’t let go to the funhouse.
Poverty is not the only struggle that has negative implications. Racism has implications in many ways in Breaking Through. There are some practice of racism in Breaking Through, "No, I didn't tell him I was born in Mexico," he said, anticipating my question. "But when I said I was Mexican there was a dead silence. After a while we continued talking, but they seemed uncomfortable and less friendly." (pg.46). Here it explains that when Roberto went to eat dinner with his girlfriend parents, and then Roberto told them he was Mexican they were less friendly. I think is because they aren’t happy of his race. The book also has another racism sentences, "I asked Mamá not to make taquitos for my lunch, because a few guys made fun of me when they saw me eat them. They called me "chile stomper" or tamale wrapper."" (pg.45). This is also racism because the kids in Panchito’s school call him names because he eats Mexican food and because he is also Mexican. The last thing I found racism in this book is, "Before I had a chance to answer he added, "We have excellent vocational programs in car mechanics, electronic, and wood shop. We also have a program for future farmers."" (pg.32) To explain better the counselor ask Panchito what did he wanted to be, but before Panchito could tell him he blurted out some stuff that Mexican people do a lot such as a future farmer. As you could see in Breaking Through, there are many implications of racism and also in the real world because this book is realistic.
The movie, 42, about the Jackie Robinson story shows examples of racism and its implications. One example of racism in the movie 42, is that they would separate the white and black people. One main detail of this in the movie 42 is that they would have a team of just white people and the other team of just black people. So they wouldn’t let play a black person in a white person team. But Jackie Robinson didn’t care and did that. Another detail of racism that is also included in baseball is that the white people would have a special place to sit under a thing that would cover them from the sun. But in the other hand the black would had to set under the big, hot shiny sun. But there is not just racism in segregation, there is also in treatment. To give you a detail of the movie 42 is that this woman who worked at the airport gave Jackie’s and his wife tickets to some other white people. This shows that the woman didn’t want them get on the airplane and prefer to give the tickets to other white people. The last detail is that once Jackie was playing in the baseball field, and there was a guard. He was playing and then the guard came to him and to him he doesn’t belong to this field because he’s black. Overall there is racism between segregation and treatment between the black and white.
But there’s not just racism in segregation and treatment, but also belief and bullying. To start with, everybody belief in many things, but the white people belief on lot but they mainly belief that one race was better than the other race. This shows that they are trying to say that White people are much better than Black people in many good things. Another sample of racism is in the category of bullying. A sample of this is that when Jackie was playing, through out the game the coach from the other team was screaming out to Jackie many stuff like “niggar.” The coach was very rude to Jackie that it even made him very angry. Last sample of bullying is that a baseball player from the other team hit Jackie right on the forehead on purpose. This shows that the white don’t have respect to the black and that the white feel like if they are the boss.
Not only has J. Robinson experienced racism and its implications, but it has happened to my mom of hearing a racism story. It’s about a boy who sang the national song name star spangled banner and a video of him singing was put on the internet. The first example is that they were saying racism stuff at the boy, such as “Why they got a Mexican kid singing the national anthem?” This guy name Daniel said that, and this is showing racism because in the video he comes out dress like a marche and thinks that if he’s dress like that he’s a Mexican but who knows. Second example is also a quote, “How are you singing the national anthem looking like an illegal immigrant?” says Andean. This shows that he/she is thinking that if you dress or looks like a Mexican you are an illegal immigrant. Last but not least, “Who let this illegal alien sing our national anthem?” said Sirius. This shows that he is also thinking that you are dress or look like a Mexican and your not illegal and does not have rights to do something such as sing the national song that “America’s.” Overall they are many racism in the world and you never know because you just discover there is racism in the internet to like children.
In contrast to all I have shared, Kelly McGonial provides an opposing perspective. She says that struggle is your friend in many ways. Also that it would help you on racism and poverty. But no that’s not true. Stress sometimes could kill you. But mainly is not so helpful on racism because you would get crazy you and could be races to yourself or being races to people and that would make it worst. A point that she pointed out was that when oxytocin (a stress hormone) is released in a stress response, it is motivating you to seek support. Its making you more social and this is also that you will show and you’re your feelings to people and not keeping them in. Another point is that your heart has receptors for the stress hormone and oxytocin helps heart cells regenerate and heal from any stress-induced damage. This says that it would make your heart stronger and ur brain too. She also points out that when your heart is pounding it means that you’re ready for action and you will be breathing, and its helping you for challenges. This shows that when your heart is pounding your is putting you in action. I disagree with this because stress has implications such as depression and anger, and this makes people feel bad. So I disagree with Kelly McGonial.
Struggle (specifically poverty, and racism) is multidimensional and has implications that can harm us. In this essay poverty talks about living conditions, education, health, and treatment being affected by poverty. Also racism having struggle and implications like Jackie Robinson and my mom hearing a racism story. Overall, stress, racism, and poverty are multidimensional and we should stop all this!
