| dc.description.abstract | Past experiences have relevant truths for the present. An uncommon work and living situation from this writer's undergraduate days shows how prejudice and stereotype can be subtly arranged, and participated in, by the nature of his surroundings. This thesis explores, through the combination of related past events with an interspersed imperative address to the reader, the ways in which the writer was stereotyped by those he served because of the limited nature of their interactions. This writer, in turn, formed prejudices against those for whom he worked. The imperative addresses to the reader advise one not to accept without question simple categories and judgments for people based solely upon circumstance and situation. | en_US |
