Whats the worth?, Marcus Anderson Post 24
In our tuesdays class we were discussing on our POV about passing. There were many different views that came out of this. Here is my opinion on it. I feel that if a person was to pass, there should be a reason necessary to do so. I believe in the idea of sticking to who you are and standing for whats right, but in the same breath If society is dealing me a rough hand and times are becomeming troubling, there is more to concider than standing up for my own personal beliefs. I believe that family is the number one concideration when making a move such as passing. If there is an opportunity for my family to have a better life politically, economically, and socially through my actions, then that would have to be strongly considered. I dont think that people in society whatever the race just wake up and say hey I want to be black, white, asian, and so on just because today! Everything comes back to reason at the end of the day. So I think when it comes to passing, there is always reason and theirs a whole biggger picture to concider when making a move just as this. Everyones situations are different in society so who am I to judge a person as a sellout when I dont even know why they are doing what they did?!
