Chapter 1 Blog

In the first chapter of "Always Running" by Luis J. Rodriguez, the author writes how his "Dad quit school to be with the woman who would later become Seni's mother" It's crazy to think that making one choice changed his whole life and even changed the life of his future kids. By dropping out and moving to East L.A where all the gangs are at he made the choice of living a more harder life. If his dad would've never dropped out of medical school he would have been a successful man who had nothing to do with gangs and his children wouldn't have ended up the way they did. He struggled to get a job mainly because of his race the only work he could ever get was a often a laborer. The whole first chapter focuses more on introducing the whole characters and saying something about them.
