Oprression and liberation
I think that I do see some Oppression at my internship but I think that is in between students. I think that the stuff that I see is that students hang out with there same race but then fight againts there same race to because of some gang issues. But I think that overall Upa liberates the students, like theres many after school programs that help them to learn about there race. I also think that for the fact that UPA is a small middle school the teachers have time for all the studenst and then there not oppressed by them. I also think that teachers dont oppress them either or the staff. Yet some how in my opinion I do think that theres isntitutional oppression towards the school. I think this because UPA is in a neighborhood were the taxes dont help the school as much its hard for them to get money and to have better materials and oportunities. I also think that the discrict is oppressing them because UPA is a small school and right now theres not enough money to have all this school and they want to close small school. Also some kids might be oppressed because of the neighborhood that there in and they might internalize all those things and bring them to school. But this are the only things that come in mind to me.
