Lu and Rose Response

I found these two articles to be rather enlightening. Lu took an autobiographical narrative and weaved it into a personal statement on how language can subconsciously influence a person’s identity and thought process. Rose provides a narrative on his work experience with impoverished adults and their struggle to become literate in intellectually competitive environment. Even though Lu and Rose both used a different approach to display their point, one from the perspective of a student and the other from the perspective of a teacher, both articles have a focus literacy playing a vital role in the shaping of people as members of society.
