What's happening in the picture?
Where do you think the picture was taken?
What is the man in the picture holding?
explain the story
- What is democracy?
-Who is allowed to vote in an election? Are black people allowed to vote? White people? Women? Gay or Lesbian people? People of different faith? Transgender people? People with disabilities?
- What does this picture show us about people who live in America?
-Is America a place where everyone is the same or people are different?
- How is Fabio feeling? Why?
- Some people think that a country is better where everyone is the same; same skin colour, same religion, Some people say you should stay in the country where you were born. What do you think Fabio believes?
- Imagine a world where no one travelled, no one changed, no one met people who were different, what would that world be like?
- If you meet someone who says people who are different can't get along or live together, what can you tell them about? (tell them about our school / our city and how we show every day that people who are different can get along. We want to live in a world with people who are different)
- Why is this story about No Outsiders?
