What was the topic of yesterday's presentation? Explain.

The topic of yesterdays presentation was about accepting people who are different then you. Whether they are of a different race, religion or sexual orientation. It talked about using common phrases that we don't really think about and how they can hurt people without reilizing it. In general we talked about acceptance of people who are not the same as us.

What did you think of yesterday's guest speaker and topic?

I thought that yesterday's guest speaker was probably very helpful. She seemed really approachable and had gone through a lot during her younger life in terms of being discriminated against because of race and sexual orientation. She really opened my eyes to how none of us are really different on the inside.

Did yesterday's guest speaker change the way you thought about people who are different than you?

I really don't see them as different any more. Sure, they have a different skin colour or different religious beliefs but that doesn't mean that we can't be friends. Even if they are gay or lesbian, that doesn't change who they are. They can still be a great friend and I'm not going to exclude them because they are different then me.
