House on Mango Street 2

Those Who Don't Feel Safe
in this story esperanza explains how she only feels safe among those of her own race. although i do not feel this way i can understand her fear around other races of people, due to the fact that there is alot of racial disgrimination in the u.s. and her home is in the projects, an area known for gang violence.

And Some More
i found it very interestiong the way esperanza, rachel and lucy desribe people they know. they compare them to the various types of clouds which vary from delightful and intimidating looking. the clouds along with the weather are constantly changing much like the people they describe, people's behavios and personality constantly change like the clouds.
