Erased Faces by Graciela Limon identifies three main characters in the novel; The stories of Adriana Mora, Juana Galvan, and Orlando Flores are narrated as we are taken through the lives of each character and how they surpassed their struggles and continue with their journeys; Each character surpassing struggles of their own. Adriana who suffered through out most her life, a photojournalist, comes across Juana whom expresses the need for her in being part of the movement in rising against the Mexican government, to capture the events in photos and journalism for the whole world to see. Juana, a strong, courageous, and independent woman who also went through much burden in her life comes to become a powerful leader in the Zapatista movement whom is praised by Orlando, the leader of the Lacandones. Though, Adriana and Juana become deal with their emotions in having a strong attraction towards each other, together they all ultimately move forward in the same journey. Even before the characters convoluted together, the themes of acceptance, race/ethnicity, equality, and isolation fixated around all three of them.

Even though Erased Faces narrates the stories of multiple characters and the issues they faced, the character Juana exemplifies the theme of inequality,

Why do we smile? What is the purpose of it? At a first glance, these would appear to be very simple questions. Questions that you could answer almost immediately. Some would say, “Because we can.” or “To make other people happy.” In the essay Why Women Smile, Amy Cunningham defies the status-quo on this topic by bringing up the following points: women not only smile because we are happy or excited but also out of social obligation, we smile out of fear, nervousness, or feeling uncomfortable, and lastly that there are honest to goodness true smiles. What truly “lies” behind the smile is something that is more nuanced than people expect.

The evidence presents that Francie is growing up. She started to discover the truth about things which contradict her original, childish perspective. Time started passing by faster in her point of view, and because of that there is no time to stop and smell the flowers, or pay attention to every detail. Both of these things Francie noticed in Katie, and Katie, being an adult, Francie realized that she is slowly surrendering herself to the grown-up side. This proves as an important point to understand the novel better, the reason being that in Francie’s standpoint, time is passing quicker than ever before. Therefore, as the story continues, it gives the novel a vaguer look on things and the novel starts to progress faster than it had when

Mama meant I was the box.” This evidence most likely shows that Katie was thinking of it a lot otherwise & if she wasn’t she wouldn’t have figured it out then, would she? This shows that she was determined to find out what her mom meant.

“I liked hurting girls.” This was the first sentence in the book; the sentence that captured my attention and fed my growing curiosity. Another thing that intrigued me about the book is its title--it wasn’t so much as a diary as it is an exploration on psychology through the eyes of the abuser. By reading the novel, I journeyed into the mind of the narrator, as he provided detailed explanations and analysis as to why he obtained such pleasure and enjoyment by mentally and emotionally tormenting his victims. The book made me think. It made me think of every interaction I have experienced where I found my self-esteem drop lower and lower. Taking this into account, I realized that I have been on the sharp end of the verbal sword--often. But it

Written by Amy Cunningham, “Why Women Smile” conveys the message of how young women in their early twenties have been heavily influenced by society in the way that they do not have a choice to express their emotions (through smiles) or not. Smiles are generally interpreted as a positive cognition and as a way to express happiness or any notions of joy as well as possibly overwhelming emotions.

Elliott (2011) argued that popular and media culture today are introducing a wholesale shift away from a focus on personalities to celebrity body-parts and their artificial enhancement.
