Special thanks to the class for workshopping my argument during my presentation, as well as workshopping my second draft. Thanks to my writing group, Doorey and Candice, as well as Abigail, for their extremely helpful suggestions while they were trying to figure out their own drafts as well. Thanks also to Bobby Chong, my writing center tutor and the guys at New Media Center for helping with the website. Also, special thanks to my parents for teaching me not to forget or disregard the people as well as the culture and religion that are part of my heritage.
All translations from French texts were done by me.
