Marcus Anderson Post 7 Change
Drawing off what were discussing in class form the other day, I just want to say that there is alot that is terribly wrong with the 2010 census. In my opinion, I think that the fact that race is on the thing makes it silly. One thing that I can't get over is the use of "Negro" in the census. I'm not just singling out the wrongful use of that identification, but along with the many others that we discussed. I just want to take the time to say that I am really enjoying all of our discussions that are going on within the class. I believe that through identifying these things which we believe to be incorrect, we can be agents of change. I ejoyed our discussion so much, I am preparing call the census people and ask them a few questions of my own. I believe that as we identify what is wrong, and act on the situation.. we can bring about change for the positive. But I just might have a response form the census people soon i'll keep you posted.
