Kingston’s claim about needing to create a community of voices rather than one, to speak more truth, in my opinion, is very valid. It seems pretty clear in the past and in the present that the more the better. What this means, though, in Kingston’s claim, is that in order for something to be heard and noticed, you need something big enough to be heard and noticed. In her stance as a writer who covers her depictions of the experiences of Chinese immigrants in the United States, it would be very crucial that she has a big enough audience to help her cover her topic on her depictions of Chinese immigrants in the United States. One voice can only be heard so far, with many voices, any sound or chant can be heard for miles. To get a point across …show more content…
She is a famous writer who writes on how she thinks the experiences are in the United States from the eyes of Chinese immigrants. She most likely chooses to deeply express these experiences because she sees fault in the United States as racial hate towards Chinese immigrants in the United States grows and is something that many people face Chinese or not. She uses her single voice to express the concerns of many all over the world, especially Chinese immigrants. But, her voice can only reach so many people, therefore if there were more voices like hers, pleading for the safety and peace of everyone including Chinese immigrants, this plea would reach far more people as the concern of the problem is growing among communities, that it becomes a community itself and has a voice that really can make a change and in Kingston’s position, hopefully create a community that fixes a lot of wrongs involving how Chinese immigrants may have been treated in the United States.

A lot of individuals can each do their part and make the world a better place and change the world slowly but surely, even if they are by themselves. Kingston is an example of that. Though to attack a much larger issue than just one person, more than one person is undoubtedly needed. This can be seen in the Government of the United States. There's mayors, presidents, senators and many politicians who, to help the betterment of the country, look at some of the largest issues the country faces on a day-to-day basis. Each does their part according to their position. When a decision is being made for the sake of the whole country, the entire group of people who focus on making decisions for the sake of the country gather their voices together to take care of these major issues at hand. One person is not up front to fix the entirety of a country. Such power could not and does not exist. So what everyone does is get their voices together, each politician wanting to fix an issue they think is more important, and see what group of voices stand out the most. Whichever group has the most votes/ voices in this case, is the group that makes the decision that will impact their country. Even in politics, it is known that the group with the most votes/voices wins. So this just adds to Kingston and I’s point of the importance of gathering more voices than 1 individual to be heard or to have a strong impact on any topic, problem or
