Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 101 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing, reading, and thinking on a weekly basis in an informal setting.

What comes to mind straight away for me is the blunt "nigger" in the back but also the blinding yellow armband of "US Marshall" on the sleeves of white men wearing a suit. What the picure/ painting does best however is make the dark skinned girl wear a white dress to obviously show the racial bias at the time.
