In the story "From Straw to Gold" the Character Cisneros is constantly interacting with obstacles in her life. These obstacles aren't always difficult; like the time she had to make tortillas at a dinner party, a task she has never learned to do before, to being able to overcome cultural expectations. These expectations are not only in her mind, but in her family's mind as well. Throughout the story Cisneros learns how to identify different forms of obstacles and correctly place a genre on them. Different genres include poverty, humanity, and self-doubt.
The bells of Social Justice ring throughout many parts of this story. One of these parts being the time where Cisneros was overcoming her obstacle with her family's expectations of her. They were asking for so much and she had to endure great struggle before she was able to learn the valuable lesson in every story. Unable to please every single person, Cisneros begins to please the most important person in attempt to establish Social Justice, herself.
