underneath it all there is a spark of inginuity in peoples lives. such as in the reading we did "gang leader for a day" we see that there is more that meets the eye within a gang. this is true in life. you can say there is nothing hard about a mcdonalds job. this is probably true but i have never worked there and i have no idea what goes on. we tend to make assumptions due to peoples appearences. you dont really know who you are talking to until meet them face to face. like a hand shake. it says alot about a person. if its firm and fluid, then the man who probably delivered this handshake is a strong , confident, egar man. if it is weak you are deling with a feeble individual. but on the outsid they can be this emmaculate demi god of a person. but in the inside they are weak.
Like in the story, JT was a college grad and very intellegent. its not all tha meets the eye with who you meet.

great picture Mike! Very apropos. Good example. Youare thinking with a sociological imagination! Awesome.
yeah seriously ... people always stereotype gangs and minorities. i was even shocked that the guy in the story went to college. gangs can be intimidating sometimes but they are real people with with real feelings like everyone else. some people might have bad first impressions, but you will never understand a person unless you get to know them.
