Interpret, analyze, and evaluate culturally diverse narratives, poetry and drama, aesthetically and ethically, by making connections to other texts, ideas, cultural perspectives, eras, personal events and situations. Self-select text to respond and develop innovative perspectives.
I think this article about the girl sailing around the world does involve culturally diverse narratives because she said "she was born to parents living on a boat near the coast of New Zealand" which is very different than what we in America think of as being normal. This girl was used to different things and different ways of life while she was sailing around the world. "She celebrated her 16th birthday during the trip, eating doughnuts for breakfast after spending time at port with her father and friends the night before in Darwin, Australia" that is not something a normal teenager does on their 16th birthday. I think people's perspectives can change based on what ethic background they have or even just the way they were raised.
I think this poem relates to culture because it does sound like the girl that was in the timesunion article is writing this poem minus the fact shes alone. "I am very young captain. Had not seen such journey. A journey through rough tides. And my ship is not too strong." Overall I think both the poem and article develop innovative prospectives because the way you interpret what culture actually means, there can be 2 sides to the way you see things. I looked at culture as what you like to do as a person and how you feel, not necessarily where you come from.
