Aaron, Grace, Yun
Their performance was about the riots in the book. I felt like it captured a good picture of what was happening at those riots because people were getting arrested because they were expressing their opinions. There was a lot of movement in their performance because Grace was a police officer and she was arresting Aaron for telling the people not to run. The cop was going to arrest the protester until they found out that the mayor sent him to do those things. So she had to let them go. As I watched this I wondered what happened to the people who were not sent out there by people like the mayor.
David, Josh, Nan
Their performance was about these random people who were there when the riot happened. They talk a lot about the differences and the separation between the African Americans and the Jews. In Josh's performance he was talking about the kid who was arrested for stabbing Rosembaum saying that some people are dos and the others are "Bad Boys." Nan's performance was about the radio and how they couldn't turn it off and it talked about how the African Americans viewed the Jews. David's was talking about how some black people were friends wwith th some Jewish people.
Helen, David, Joey
Our group was about the different sides of the story in terms of what happened to the driver that killed the child with his car. Helen's performance was about the Jewish side where the driver tried to get out of the way of the people but unfortunately killed one and injured another. My performance was the Black person side of the story saying that the driver was drunk and that they didn't beat him. David's part was to talk about how it was an accident that was allowed to turn into something much bigger than what it was.
