From Tragedy to Triumph: A Story of Second Chances Kelsey Twist Schroeder Roland Park Country School

“Everywhere, everywhere, children are the scorned people of the earth -Toni Morrison BLUE EYES = SOLUTION BROKEN RELATIONSHIPS

The Tragedy of the Breedlove Family “There is really nothing more to say-except why. But since why is difficult to handle, one must take refuge in how.”

WHY?

The All-Knowing Master “It was as though some mysterious all-knowing master has said, ‘You are ugly people.’ They had looked about themselves and saw nothing to contradict the statement; saw, in fact, support for it leaning at them from every billboard, every movie, every glance. ‘Yes,’ they had said. ‘You are right.’”

“Education” in the Movies “Along with the idea of romantic love, she was introduced to another—physical beauty. Probably the most destructive ideas in the history of human thought.”

How does this story connect to your own stories?

2012 TODAY What does “the master” say to you? What do you learn about the world from the movies and other elements on popular culture? How do these messages shape your choices and your sense of self?
