These chapters are the ones in the point of view of Minerva and Patria. We know it is written in first person because it uses the word “I said” rather that “Minerva said”. Both of these characters are strong willed individuals and I think it shows throughout the book. Having these sisters’ stories in first person point of view really helps with being able to see how they viewed life and what was occurring around them. Having them telling their own stories helps us to connect better with them and come to love them even more.

Connelly writes, “Rachel nodded and Bosch knew she was committed. She was a believer...
Yvonne Allen does not have any right to wear her headscarf in her licence photo due to the security issues it would create. She believes that her rights are being infringed upon, but doesn't realize that a licence is a privilege not a right. It is hard to argue this fact when it says literally nowhere in any law or precedent that any U.S. citizen has any right to a licence. Allen only uses two defenses one of which is how her faith is tested “in a way that was humiliating and demeaning”(8), a judge will never consider this as a good defense on why she should get her licence, because it is based on emotions not law. Her other defense was how Muslim women were allowed to wear their own headscarves in their driver's license photos, but this seems

In literature, choosing a point of view is one of the most important pieces in telling a story. It is through the point of view that the readers experience a story. In Jack London’s short story, “To Build a Fire,” he utilizes an omniscient point of view in order to add to the impact of his story.
Much of the 1960s built off the momentum of the 1950s. Not only was the birth of Rock ‘n’ Roll in the 50s, but culturally the societal pressures of conformity and obedience led to an outbreak of counterculture in the 1960s. With these new ideas and a new genre to voice them in, the 60s made way for a cultural backlash against society. One song that speaks to this discontent of societal constructs is “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction” by the Rolling Stones. Released in 1965, the country was rapidly changing but at the will of the men in power.
