Voice
Voice is the sounds people make when they are wanting to be heard. But, Who are we hearing and who are we not hearing in society?
Today in class we discussed the three poems all about being a Mother and expressed the voice in them. Is the voice speaking from experience or creative fiction and what type of connection does it leave? I expressed that I feel more connected when I know the author is coming from experience rather then creative fiction. Others made valid points that the author may be connected to some one who experienced what they are writing about which I never really thought of. Depending on the type of voice used in a reading can truly impact the way a reader feels.
The picture below describes my first question. Who are we hearing and not hearing in society and am I speaking what I want. This picture shows that some people may feel like they are unable to voice their opinions in certain situations or that their voice is not being heard. Voice is everything in today's world and expressing how we feel.
