Creating a New Perspective

This is a response to the reflection titled Insider of Outsider, by tdhampton04. I also find the insider verse outsider perspective very interesting. Suppose one person is on a competitive speech team and the other person plays basketball. I believe that they would both think their activity is more challenging and competitive. However, I think if someone made them switch roles their mind might change. Perhaps, they would learn to respect one another more. The basketball player wouldn’t stereotype the speech team as “nerds” and the speech team might think more of the basketball players than just “dumb jocks”. Taking people out of the comfort zones can really broaden their horizons and bring a better perspective onto the actual subject.
