Movie

Today in class we watched a video about in India. There were many differences between their life and culture and ours. Everything is very crowded and they don't have lots of food or nice things. The kids run around and are punished in harsh ways like being slapped and hit with books. Most everyone in America has what they need and some people are more poor than others but there are few people who are poor like these people. We are used to having food, clothes, a house, internet and much more. In America harsh punishment is not allowed. The people in India got beaten with sticks and set on fire just for being Muslim. America is a free country and people can practice religion however they want for the most part. Another main difference is that the kids have to do terrible things to get by. The kids sell their possessions for small amounts of money but here, money is given to us by our parents like it's no big deal. To the people in India this is normal but we aren't used to it because America is very different.
