When this project was first assigned I wasn't sure what to do. I thought it was cool that we could have picked any topic we learned this year, because I did learn a lot. At first I wanted to do something involving The Catcher in The Rye but since we did a whole project on I thought I'd do the project on something we really focused on not too long ago so it was still fresh in my head. I choose beauty, because of the way it was shown in the bluest Eye.
Everyone in the book everyone who was discriminated by the way the looked was because they did fit into the societal norm. It isn't right to be ridiculed for looking different, when it isn't your fault. Pecola wanted blue eyes because her dolls had, famous actresses had them. The bluest eye took place in the 1940's and this issue in beauty is still taking place, that's really made me choose this topic.
