Part 3:
Write a reflection about your story that explains how your story shows sociological imagination. [Sociological imagination is the the connection between 1) personal troubles and public issues, 2) personal behavior and social interaction, 3) biography and history, 4) individuals and wider society, as well as other overlaps between the private and public life.]
Personal troubles:
The African guy need to go back to the capital to get his family, he have to go back to his country because the soldier dont want the immigrant in the country nomore, so he dont have no choice.
The soldier was looking for the immigrant if they find any immigrant they will going to kill them, i was the person whos stopping the soldier but they dont want to listen. they doing whatever they want cause they have tank and guns.
The soldier end up killing me cause on they way im stopping them, they shot me in the head and the government dont care when they kill me and i was a citizen.
The African guy is now thinking how he going go back to his country, he was saying he wish he can fly.
Public issue:
In this country they soldier dont like the immigrant that’s racism
Everything was not okay in the country they economy was not okay at all
The government have no time talking to the soldier they have another issue so they was too busy.
The social imagination is the force and action of individuals that the soldier was doing cause they was killing people without excuse with is not right, the government should do something about but they was busy taking care of another business so they didn’t have time to talk to the soldier, the soldier and the immigrant cant get alone because the soldier is thinking that the immigrant make they country difficult, so that’s why they trying to take out the immigrant in the country, but however if they kill all those immigrant they cant make a better community that can work for them, cause the country need the immigrant.
