Interpreting a graph

Hello readers, today i will review a graph for my ENG101 class and interpret it.

This graph shows the Anti-Islamic hate crime incidents between the years 1995-2008. from 1995 to 2000 the amount of hate crimes was at it's minimum only between 21 and 32, but then a large spike of hate crimes against Islamic people happened in the year 2001, presumed to be caused by the 9-11 attacks striking fear on the american people, causing them to be more stereotypical and increasing the hate crimes rate to 400+ people. between the years 2002-2008  the hate crimes decreased, but are still very high compared to the years before.

Instagram Pictures Response

The first picture shown  was by kelly that shows a child, this picture shows that we need to make a better tomorrow for our future children when they grow up, we don't want to raise them in a time where everything's destroyed. The image will tell future time travelers what our kids looked like.


the second picture is a picture of people watching the Yankees game live, this pictures hows how much fun we had with the entertainment we had around us, until the future climate change ruined it. It will show time travelers the beauty of sports.

Zeitoun keywords

Hello Readers, in this blog i will discuss and share my thoughts on Zeitoun.


              in the book. Zeitoun is forced out of his home by unmarked policemen (believed to be from companies trying to keep order) most likely because of how he looks and his skin color, when he arrives in prison, he is denied a phone call and was labeled a terrorist by the people who arrested him. I call this Corporate Injustice, when the government fails to keep order of it's own people, they hire companies to do the dirty work for them. An example of this is in the book, Zeitoun is thrown into a vehicle to be sent to prison he asks "why am i being jailed", the policemen tell him "i don't know, I'm from India"(Zeitoun 209), showing that the man was most likely hired by other people outside of the country to help keep the peace. Another example of this is when Zeitoun is calling for help and he is completely ignored by the police who are there to save people. When the people need the power of the government to help them in their time of need, you shouldn't let companies do the work for you, they don't care about the people, only what's in their bank accounts.
