So tell me-what happens when you don't have so many friends one day, or you don't have so much money, or something bad happens to you?"

The Revealers: Blog Topic: Role Reversal


Blog response instructions:

Blog Question: After the Bully Lab was renamed, the Revealers, and the stories of the three Darkland students were released and well received by the student body, Elliot wanted to publish Russell’s narrative about Richie punching Russell in the face.
1) Why was Russell so opposed to the idea (pg. 110)? Explain. (4 pts)
2) What is happening to the relationship between Russell and Richie. (3 pts)
3) Two Peer Comments (4 pts each)

1) Russel is opposed by the idea of putting his story up, because he thinks Richie will beat him up again for talking about him. On page 110 Russel says to Elliot no way when he asks him if he will put his story of Richie punching him in the revealer. This proves that Russel was opposed by the idea.

2) The relationship between Russel and Richie was pretty bad for most of the book then in the boiler room chapter it gets really bad then at the end they become friends.
