How does Martin portray the character of Manon and her attitudes up until the time of her Mother’s death? In the opening pages, Manon repeatedly refers to her husband as “him”, which is shown in the 3rd person pronoun which gives the impression that he has no respect and she has no respect for him, therefore he has not been given a name. This shows that Manon has a negative attitude towards her husband as she believes he does not deserve a name as he is unworthy due to the treatment he has given Manon. As a result, this leads people to believe that there is no love between Manon and her husband because if he was given a name it would show a loving connection. Therefore, I believe Manon hates her husband.
In each of these stories, the leading ladies— Mrs. Turpin and Julian’s mother— were prejudice in some way towards anyone they thought should be in a lower class. Although these stories were very similar, they also had several differences. Julian’s mother only had to deal with her racism in public. Mrs. Turpin was forced to deal with her racism all of the time, even when she was at home, because she and her husband had hired black people to work in their fields. They each dealt with confrontations in different ways.

Sykes did not keep it a secret when he went to see Bertha and the only thing Delia says about the affair is, “that ole snaggle-toothed black woman you runnin’ with ain’t commin’ heah to pile up on mah sweat and blood” (138). Although it may seem as though she is defeated and Sykes does as he pleases whether Delia likes it or not, I believe she shows her strength by protecting her home that she has worked so hard for. By “putting her foot down”, she is saying she does not care about his affair but he will not do it in her home. At the end of the story, I believe Delia receives the greatest empowerment by having the choice to save Sykes or let him die. I feel Hurston also implies karma at the end of the story when Sykes dies by a bite from the snake that he brought home in order to scare

They were dehumanized if they stepped out of line “My husband cousin... they took her tongue out for talking to the clan... You think they gone take our tongues? For talking to you?” (Stockett, 301)- Winnie (A black maid). Black people were denied the right to speak their mind or else they would be tortured or killed. They had to write the novel in secrecy in fear that they would get caught and killed.

This is portrayed clearly in all three of the novels. In Harriet the Spy, In Matilda, neglect from her parents stems from pure greed, allowing them to overlook the briliance of their young daughter. This is a clear point made in the story, emphasized by the author's introduction of the parents when he says "Occasionally one comes across parents... who show no interest at all in their children... the parents looked upon Matilda in particular as nothing more than a scab" (6). He also mentions how parents who neglect their kids in such a way are "far worse than the doting ones" (6). As the author mentions, the parent's neglect for their daughter stems from pure greed.
What we see in the short story is not racism, because Mrs. Wilson is just a women with and ignorance which makes her prejudiced. She has the most wrong way to judge people. She assumes that his father had to work hard in order to feed the family, and that he cannot work in the company with a high status. She connects every black people with poverty, and look at them as stereotypes. “After you my dear Alphonse” is written ironic because we hear Johnny say to Boyd “After you my dear Alphonse”, but Mrs. Wilson thinks that all black people are poor and underfed, so it should be Boyd, who say it to Johnny.
