In class blog 5/5

    Hi my name is James and I am writing a blog about the book "Zeitoun".  The story basically is about Zeitoun experience with Hurricane Katrina.  He stayed behind and throughout the part I'm up to in the book he feel he have a purpose within the crisis in New Orleans .  Many claims are being made about why he stayed but after going back and forth on twitter with the class and re-reading key passages on the book one reason i see he stayed is because of his personal beliefs.  He is living up to his his family name especially his brother because he is brave, strong and true (116). Other example are just him being helpful like when  him and a friend is trying to save a lady(100).   He thought of the story of Noah so maybe that why he save the animals also within the book (94).  In the end Zeitoun heart is in the right place and he is doing a good thing while you can disagree with his methods.
