Isi artikel

In "Just off Main Street", author, poet and performance artist Elmaz Abinader, an Arab - american, explores the challenges indifiduals from different ethnic backgrounds face when they try to adjust to mainstream american culture. She decribes how her family's traditional culture differed from the american culture she engaged in outside her home and how those differences enabled her to create the unique subject matter of her writings. She explains how her experiences brought her to appreciate qualities that were singularly hers as an arab - american, and she provides readers with a "magic door" to pass through as they share in these experiences. This essay can open "doors" for students who may also experience the enjoyment and confusion of living in two worlds - on both sides of the door.
