Gandhi Journel 2
Something that has restricted my movement was a security guard at a concert. It was the summer time. The heat was staggering. The thermometer stated that it was 102 degrees. The concert took place at an outdoor pavilion in Pittsburgh. The sun was beating down on me and my friend. After about an hour of standing in the sun, we needed some shade. So in between the sets of the different bands, we decided if we could go to the pavilion for 10 minutes just to get shade. They said no and if we tried to get in, we would be ejected. This is a problem that should be fixed. If we were any hotter, the shade could be either life or death. There was not a band playing so i don't see why it was such a big deal. To get attention to this problem, i will send a letter to the management of the facility. I will ask that if the temperature is that hot, we should be allowed to stay in there even if it is a short period of time. Or instead of doing that, just extend the roof over the lawn area so the whole place is under shade. I hope that one day this problem will be fixed.

Gandhi journel 1
If i was the one thrown off the train, I would be very angry. I wasn't bothering anyone, destroying anything, or doing any wrong for that matter. Since I paid the correct amount, I deserve to sit their. It is completely unfair to charge me that much and then send me to the worst seats on the train. Everyone should be allowed to sit in any seat on the train as long as they pay the money for it. This is a prime example of racism. If i was in this situation, i would try to fight back to try to stay in my seat.
