Kate Chopin

"The story of an hour"
The story was about a woman that had a husband that liked controlling her. She wanted to be free and wished that life wasn't going to be so long and then they came and told her that her husband is death she she was happy but pretended she wasn't and cried. She was thinking how happy and free she could be once and then she sow her husband coming in the door from the house. They said he died of happiness but she didn't she died of shock. What I learned about this story was that people could hide things for a very good time and live misserval like the lady that wasn't happy but still lived with her husband. What I liked about this story was that the ending of it because it was really nice how she died from shock and everyone else though she died from happiness. What I didn't like from the story was that it ended very short. Freedom in this story means in many kind of ways because she got her freedom from death. She is free but she is death.

"The Blind Man"
The story Blind Man was about a poor guy that was blind and no one helped him do anything. People sow how he was sweating under the hot sun and no one told him totake off his jacket. Everyone ignored him and then one day there was an acsident with some rich guy and everyone went to see him. They old blind men wonder were were all the people coming from the ones he heard . What I learnend in this story is that people are discriminated for how poor and how rich they are becasue no one help the old blind men that was very hugry and thisty but they did go to see the rich guy tha got ran over. What I like about this story is that the rich man got ran over and nothing happend to the old blind guy. I didn't like that they didn't put anything in the story to help the guy , that made me feel bad. In this story is about rich and poor becasue to the poor guy he is like invisible and the rich guy everyone oes to look at him. The poor guy is like a penny in the floor and the rich guys is like 25 cents.

"Desiree's Baby"
In Desiree's Baby the girl was found and taking in by some white people. She grow up to be a beautiful girl and then she got marry. The guy she got marry to was from france.
The baby they had was getting dark and then the father ayed the mom was the black one in the realiship and he found a letter from there parents that sayed he ws son from black fathers. What I learned from this story is not to take a move until you kow its complety true . What I liked about this story was that there was an ending so cool becasue of the letter his mother sent to hi father. I think racism stoped when thing liked this happend so maybe more things like this should happen.
