For today’s blog, we are to list the differences between the Slums and the US cultural. There is a big difference in the two cultures. One difference is in the way they are treated. In the slums, they are tortured and they would be hit with bats and other things, they would be chased, and they would be shocked. Also, the police does not protect them, like the police in the US would do. Another huge difference is the area where they live. Their houses are not big at all. Also, the area around them are dirty and have a lot of trash. Another thing is that their bathrooms was an open sewer that was right next to the river that they bathed in, washed their clothes in, and even drink out of. Currently in the movie, these older men are trying to catch Jamel and his friend because they ran away. The reason they ran away is because they were doing mean things to them.
