beyond the boundary/from hind swaraj

In the reading, it starts out telling a story of the authors life and his experiences. it tells of a private school and the game cricket. Cricket is a game played in England and from there the English colonies which is known now as the commonwealth. In the story, the recollection of the game, the diversity in the game could symbolize the colonialism of certain countries by England, therefore causing a spherical influence of the game. the story takes place in Trinidad, a British colony, it shows the influence and diversity of the colonies, from mulatto, Asians, blacks, whites and as he points out Indians. It tells of his experience living in an English ruled  colony and the life he lived due to that fact. He once says there seems to be two people within him, one who wants to rebel against everything including family and the other a puritan. it seems that he is torn between the English culture that he has grown up in and the culture of his family. he has the fear of repercussion but still has the European society which is considered more relaxed than Asian societies. his address to how life was is how still today life is, race is still used as a discrimination tactic also know as racism and is clearly used by our government and local media, especially since president trumps election. while some may say racism is dead, it was clearly show in the last election that it is very much alive and kicking. since the election there has been an increasing amount of coverage on racism and a coming out of a racist population, that believe that it is okay to be racist and since trump is president that they can do anything they want, cause "trump's america." racism in society is a very present and see by the minority communities almost every day
