While listening to radio lab I noticed how much of what goes on during war time we turn a blind eye too. Our society knows what occurs but chooses not to address the issue. This relates to my topic because our society chooses to turn a blind eye the violence occurring to innocent civilians. Pelias and Shaffer helped me with my new perspective when I read, "personal narrative asks you to see your own stories as aesthetic texts to be skillfully crafted for the purpose of informing." (55) it really made me think about how I presented my side of the story. It forced me to think about whether I was informing or persuading.
