Two worlds collide


1. We can appreciate two different point of views in this history. On one side is the black man, who don’t have an easy life because he has to work really hard to meet their needs, but he's used to it due to he don´t know anything else, he thinks that the white consider him as an insignificant person, but he’s just trying to do all that he can to get any help. On the other side is the white man, who counts with a much better lifestyle than the black man because he don’t have to deal with the same kind of problems that the black men due to he has a good economic situation, so he thinks that the black man is trying to disturb him and at the same time take advantage of him.

2.
* Both persons grow up in different conditions, that’s why they are separated by a lot of categories like class, education, culture and language, so they couldn’t resolve their differences because these were many and they were unable to reach mutual agreement in spite of how much they talk.
* They don’t have to deal with the same everyday situations, what makes really difficult that they understand to each other.
