Moth Radio (201.)

1)I believe that this story is really racist just because a person is from a different color it doesn't mean that the person is gonna do harm to other people. 
2)The black guy got interviewed a lot and also his questions where a bit more tense the little boy's. Listening to this piece you can tell that when they see a black guy with a white little boy then police will think wrong. Maybe they might think that the man might harm the little boy.
3)Cleveland talks more respectful and calm to the police officers while Noah on the other hand is really inpatient and also he keeps on saying that if they take Cleveland again to the police station then he says he will kill himself.
4) A stereo type in this story has to be that just because Cleveland is black they believe that he is from a place where mostly all blacks where from like the south and also that they where African-Americans. Also they thought that maybe the man might of done something to the mom and that's why they thought wrong of him.
5)The police officers finally believe Cleveland when he gives the police officers the number of his mom and they call him and the women tells them that Noah had to be with Cleveland since Cleveland had to pick him up from a play date since his dad lives in Woodstock.
6)Well I believe Ms. Edward's pick this story because since Mr. Finch is defending a black man many people believe that he might be doing because the black man has threaten him or something like that. When they see a black man with a white men then maybe some police officers would think that it is not correct for people like that to be together back then a couple of years ago. Now a days it doesn't really matter because racism isn't much of a big deal as it was in the 1940's.
