Cuestion de Identidades

 For Many Latinos, Racial Identity Is More Culture Than Color

(Para Muchos Latinos, Identidad Racial Es Mas Cultural Que Color)

Este articulo se trata acerca de los censos que hay cada ano donde muchos Latinos tienen dificultad en llenar, ya que sienten que esas no son sus categorías. 

La opinión de esta autora es que muchos Latinos están desconectados de si mismos por como el gobierno los cuenta. La razón es que el gobierno les da una identidad que no es de ellos y muchos por eso cuando se les pregunta en el censo su raza, muchos contestan con la respuesta "otro". Aunque se les ponen muchas diferentes tipos de raza, y la autora quiere a dar conocer que esto es un problema.

Muchos Latinos si tienen esta dificultad de identidad. Como Latina muchos si sabemos lo que somos y de donde venemos pero los EEUU no saben en que categoría ponernos ya que ellos no saben quien somos. 

 Este articulo refleja la experiencia de Latinos y describe que muchos de ellos se califican por etnicidad envés de la raza y los censos por raza. El gobierno necesita saber y reconocer este problema.

They’ll get her drunk, they’ll get her alone, they’ll get her. Drunk sex is consider date rape. When drinking people need to take responsibility and know the difference between drunk sex and sex. One night for you could be a lifetime of pain for someone else morning. Date rape is like being sexually assaulted.

Although in some part the victim has fault in being raped without remembering anything, they know the kind of place their heading and also with the people you go.

       In this world people cannot be trusted. Not even friends. Your never know whats on there mind. Also be aware of where you go and with what kind of people, because is obvious and you can tell when things are not right. When ever your drinking in a party or any public place keep an eye on your drink at all times to avoid getting something inside your drink. If you cannot take your drink with you for any reason, like to the bathroom or so. Just throw it and when you get of bathroom get a new drink. Make sure you serve it by your own. By friends can’t be trusted I mean that people need to be aware of the kind off things your friends does because a real friend would not pressure you to drink or smoke. Friends can sometimes team up with someone that wants to do something to you and they can be offer something they want in exchange and sometimes those friends can trade you for whatever they being offer by someone that wants to get your friend on their side and plan something versus you. You can tell who your real friends are. Party carefully!
