Sherman Alexie VS LaRhonda Jackson
There is a big difference between these two cultures, and the enviroment which they both live upon. LaRhonda who is african american grows up in a urban neighborhood where it is pretty rough. While Sherman is a Native American who grew up in a different enviorment as LaRhonda. LaRhonda grew up in a neighborhood where there is drugs, and crime. Also the difference between their social class is that Sherman believes that education holds the key to his future, while LaRhonda thinks other ways. LaRhonda doesn't take education as seriously as Sherman takes his. LaRhonda beats up people to earn respect among her fellow classmates while Sherman just wants to try and do better in school. Sherman does tries to do better in school, while LaRhonda doesnt try as hard.
