Dear principal fallows,

(1) i am concerned about the school board’s decision to make every senior participate in 40 hours of community service in order to graduate. (2) although i believe that students should volunteer in their communities, i don’t agree that participation should be required. (3) many teenagers have jobs after school and on the weekends to them save money for college. (4) other students care for their younger siblings. (5) most students are involved in one or more school activities. (6) along with all of these responsibilities, students must still study for class. (7) i understand that the school board wants to show students the importance of volunteerism, but i think that students will find volunteer projects more rewarding when they are not forced to participate. (8) i hope that you will give this matter some thought and consider another course of action.

sincerely,

alexis vargas

Read this excerpt from "the light of gandhi's lamp" by hilary kromberg inglis, in which she describes driving to the police station where her sister is being detained. to avoid looking at the blackened windows at the top of the building and thinking about the history of who had died or been tortured there, i always looked instead at the little chinese restaurant on the opposite side of the road. how does this passage affect the text? it conveys, with great subtlety, the conflict she felt over having a sister who would break the law and end up in the custody of the police. it conveys, without any implied moral judgment, that those who fought against apartheid considered themselves to be soldiers in a just war. it conveys, with an extended metaphor, the idea that being detained by the police in this society was regarded as a badge of honor. it conveys, with direct language, the view held by many anti-apartheid activists that the police often acted in brutal and unlawful ways.
