although the class could not see my picture the way i set it up with wording and Obama involved. but just the image alone of the Chicago Policeman reaching for his gun, with young men around him fighting is overwhelming that this parade was not like Obama said that it is “one of the great event in America.” it could of been one of the great event in America if it wasnt for the Drunkenness, Fighting, and the Sixty arrests made by CPD. Obama could be talking about the drunkenness and he fighting but i think he is talking about how the parade was years ago, with out all the fighting and drunkenness.

What is the value of talking, reading, and writing about subcultures?
The Value of talking, reading, and writing about subcultures is because it is an easy topic, with many choices that students can choose from. It is what students are most fimilair with, differnt kinds of cultures, ways to live other than what is already known to that person. For example someone who has played football their entire life, was never around gangs or had time to worry about gangs, but now it is a chance to learn about the differnt diverese live style that a gangbanger encourters in their everyday life opposed to the athlete.
Why do we talk about subcultures in a writing class?
We talk about subcultures in a writing class, i think is because everyone in the class is diverse and differnt. We should be able to learn and talk about difference cultures and backrounds and exect everyone for who they are and where they come from, what is acustome.
What are the challenges/risk assocaited with talking, reading and writing about subculture?
Differnt students may not understand, also students may be effended becasue they are judge to be something assocaited with that subculture, and are not.

School spirt at St. Xaiver is not at its best, it could be better. In recent years the football team has always been able to have a good size crowd. Most of the fans are alumni or live in the neighborhood, wanting to watch a live college football game. When the cougars where doing good last November and the game was televised, every seat in the house was filled. with people watching from the fence. How come on last friday their was not even a student section in the stands at a home opener. Their are many resons, the first is because it was a crummy night and it was raining. the second reason is it was on a thursday, not to many alumni are going to be tailgating and wanting to watch a game when they have work the following day. Students might of also been busy since school started that same week. their are many more games this season, we will just hve to see if the 09 cougars will draw a crowd like following years.
