Social Pariah



In The Great Gatsby, Jay Gatsby or James Gatz felt like he wasn't good enough because he didn't have upper-class status and wealth. When he did obtain the wealth, he was still treated as a pariah, or outcast, because he would "never fit in". In every person's life there is a time he/she has felt discriminated against by creed, religion, gender, looks, or for any other reason. Discuss a time this happened to you by giving details about the situation and be candid about how it made you feel. Did this experience change your viewpoint about how you treat others or not?
