In Class Blog 2

My in class blog reading would be on the story that really intrigued me the most for some reason and that was Nipple Jesus. I like the narrator he had a voice that I can understand the text was written on a level that I felt comfortable reading. After reading the story and having the mini book discussion I realized the story was tackling judgemental issues as the narrator was judged, the art was judged and also the artist herself. It made me realize that people are really quick to judge a book by its cover. In the story the culture of the text was religious people and their issue with the painting thinking it was pornographic I couldn't relate to how they were feeling I understood the narrator more than anything but I guess because I was reading from his perspective. The strangest part of this story to me was someone who had came into the art gallery and riped the painting down and stomped it where is your religion now but also the character of the artist after someone destroyed her art? The theme of the story was judging people then it became religious. It was also funny how this one piece of art became controversy to the town just for it to be all for nothing and I understood how the narrator felt.
