I chose this article because the author, Stephen Schettini talks about losing his support from his community, where he thought he belonged, and finding his own place where he does belongs. This relates to Always Running because Luis joined a group called Thee Impersonations where he felt a sense of protection and where he thought he belonged. In the article the author states that "Abandoning the sense of belonging to a group that held the key to enlightenment was a wrenching experience that left me feeling isolated for years, but once made, the decision proved irreversible."

I thought this article was very interesting because it closely relates to the book we are reading in class. I can see similar points that are closely tied like the sense of belonging to a community.
