Abstract

Did we even get into a discussion of how to write abstracts last Wednesday?

My main arguement of my paper was that anyone can be literate and get over obstacles that come in the way of being literate. I realize it's not much of an arguement but still, I tried using Rose and Lu's essays to point out how the people in there stories were literate, because literate, became better at literacy even though they may have had trouble along the way. I guess my arguement is significant because I don't believe most people have a reason for being illiterate when they've been given the opportunity to go to public school. At least in America, nearly everyone is given the opportunity. These people got through there difficulties.
