Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 101 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing, reading, and thinking on a weekly basis in an informal setting.

Mr and Mrs Loving Movie part one
When watching the movie in class and seeing how what I read in the book "Something must be done about Prince Edward County was being portrayed very well I got really interested in the movie. The movie started really well showing how both white and black people lived in the town of Virginia as it showed the audience how segregation was still going on in this time period as the movie progressed. On the first day we got to see half of the movie but already you could tell were things were headed. It just left me shocked to see how, just the marriage of two people who love each could be like the end of the world, just because they were an interracial couple. It showed me how serious and dangerous it was for interracial couples to get married at this time and it really hurt me to see that.
