It wasn\u2019t a good experience. I told them Jorge\u2019s story, and many of the men told me that I should call the police. I told them that would not be possible because calling the police meant putting Jorge\u2019s immigration status at risk. They told me that deporting Jorge would be a good solution as he could not continue mistreating his wife. They don\u2019t understand that this is the last thing my sister-in-law Blanca would want, or how it would destroy the family. Because of their reaction, I realized that Anglos often don\u2019t realize that we live different realities, even if they have good intentions. One of the men even said that we would not resolve the issue of domestic violence as long as more Latinos kept coming to the United States, implying that all Latin@s are sexist and violent. This made me feel very bad, and I was surprised that Jack didn\u2019t say anything. I will never return to that group, but I still have to find help for Jorge, Blanca and their children.<\/span><\/p><h4><strong>Questions for reflection<\/strong><\/h4><ol><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What happened in group that made Freddy feel bad?<\/span><\/span><p>\u00a0<\/p><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What cultural problems can be indentified in this story among Anglos and Latin@s?\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which of Freddy\u2019s cultural values and realities was the group unable to understand?<\/span><\/span><p>\u00a0<\/p><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">If you were Jack, what would you do in this situation?<\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-fc9a0f5 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default tf-sticky-section tf-sticky-no\" data-id=\"fc9a0f5\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;tf_sticky&quot;:&quot;no&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4f6d82f\" data-id=\"4f6d82f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-830698a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"830698a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div>\u00a0<\/div><div style=\"text-align: right;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 200;\">Last updated 2021<\/span><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exercise 2: Going to group Last night I went to the men\u2019s group with Jack, and as I suspected, I was the only Latino there.
