Brave , Hesitant, Defensive

Quotes from the novel to support this:

Brave:
""Sheriff-" he started, but Jeremy spoke up and cut him off." ( page 273 )
Hesitant:
"Again Jeremy was silent. He started to speak, then hesitated. Finally he cleared his throat and got on." ( page 36 )
Defensive:
"Statler silently studied Jeremy, then said,"How come you always defending niggers, Jeremy?" Jeremy shook his head."I-I ain't defendin' him. He just wasn't doin' nothin'. Just figure you oughta let him go on and leave." ( page 13 )

Brief elaboration:

Jeremy is a very brave person although he, at the same time is also hesitant and afraid of saying the "wrong" thing when he god damn knows its right. Even though he always tends to stutter a lot when he is being defensive, he'll do whatever it takes to put others in front of him FIRST , despite the fact that he is a white. And by right in society at that time, it isn't right for a white to support, defend or befriend a black. He is also a courageous person as he already knows that things are going to go haywire when he defends the blacks but he still does them anyway because he is willing to sacrifice himself to go through pain like being judged and pinned down by the whites  than to let his black friends be hurt being bullied and accused of things they aren't even wrong at.

3. Doubtful

Quotes from the novel to support this.
1. " back that night Harris got hurt, you told me I'd ask something hard of you to believe I ain't meant Harris -none of y'all. Now maybe the debt's is paid." (Pg 151)
2. "I-I ain't know'd Moe was on the truck, Pa ..... I ain't know'd......not till I done got to Bogganville and .... And I seen him jump off. I ain't know'd .... and-and I was fearful of tellin' ... scared to tell ya, Pa! I was scared...." (Pg 274)
3. " "Statler, you got no call-" "You gonna prove me different." Jeremy just looked at him, and Statler walked off. Jeremy watched him,then gazed up the ridge, as if he could see me watching, then, rile in hand, he turned and followed Statler." (Pg 70-71)

Brief elaboration:
Remorseful.

After the incident in The Hunt, Jeremy displayed remorse after he followed his cousins to chase Harris whom ended up getting injured. Furthermore, to show that he is remorseful, " back that night Harris got hurt, you told me I'd ask something hard of you to believe I ain't meant Harris -none of y'all. Now maybe the debt's is paid." The line implies that he never meant to mean any harm to anyone of them after following Statler and his to brothers to chase Harris. As we can see from the text he regret the decision of giving in to what Statler had said to prove that he is not a nigger lover.

Anxious.

Jeremy showed anxiousness on The Final Farewell. From this. "I-I ain't know'd Moe was on the truck, Pa ..... I ain't know'd......not till I done got to Bogganville and .... And I seen him jump off. I ain't know'd .... and-and I was fearful of tellin' ... scared to tell ya, Pa! I was scared...." It showed his fear when being confronted by his Father about his involvement. In the text, he stuttered and have long pauses when he is trying to say something. Furthermore, he tried to convince his Father that he didn't know that Moe was in the truck as he fear his father and being disowned.

Doubtful

Jeremy is quite doubtful as he is very hesitant of his decisions. For example, " "Statler, you got no call-" "You gonna prove me different?" Jeremy just looked at him, and Statler walked off. Jeremy watched him,then gazed up the ridge, as if he could see me watching, then, rile in hand, he turned and followed Statler." Jeremy gazed upon the ridge mostly likely think of what is he going to do after Statler asked him to prove him differently from what he thinks of him as he doesn't want to join Statler and his Brother in chasing after Harris due to the bond he have with Stacey and others. However, he gave in to the things Statler said and ended up following him not knowing the consequences.

Adjectives to describe his character:
1) Cautious
2) loner
3) loyal

Quotes from the novel to support this:
cautious - "Jeremy's lips parted, and for a moment he said nothing. Then he said: " You know what you asking me? They find Moe in my truck, I'm already in a powerful lot of trouble. I don't even know how Moe's gonna get outa the truck without my Pa seeing. I already done took a awful chance---"
loner- "Jeremy held up his hand in a final farewell, turned, and walked away into the misty night. As he headed up the road he look such a lonely figure, but then, again, he always had."
loyal- " It was Jeremy. He drove on and parked."

Brief elaboration:
Jeremy is cautious as he knows that he is already in trouble for helping Moe to escape from the punishment he was supposed and he knows that if he were to get caught by the Whites, especially his father, he would be facing a lot of consequences and the fact he knows about it means he is cautious and he would like to avoid the problems.

Jeremy is a loner as the phrase "misty night" it sets across that he is a mysterious person and people who are mysterious they tend to keep a distance from people,thus they prefer to be alone to being in a crowd. Along with the phrase " As he headed up the road he looks such a lonely figure, but then, again,he always had.", it shows that he has always been lonely and it has never changed.

Jeremy is loyal as after what he did to the Logan family previously, they have lost their trust and they have ended their friendship with Jeremy but despite that,he still tried to help Logan family instead of betraying them as in the Novel, Jeremy is a White and Moe is a Black, with what Moe to his cousins, Statler and his brothers, he could have sent him to the Police and get him hanged but instead he help Moe to escape till the end and did not sabotage him.

Eventhough Jeremy is a white , he will always stand up for what is right no matter if it is related to the blacks or white. Compared to other whites , Jeremy is the only white that is brave enough to stand up for the blacks to defend the blacks from getting discriminated.

He's one of the whites that can stand up for the blacks.

Jeremy is fearless because when Moe hit Statler using the crowbar and Jeremy saw it all , he still save Moe from getting caught by Jeremy father by helping him escape using his truck.

Adjectives to describe his character: indecisive, brave

Quotes from the novel to support this: the incident on rosa lee showed that Jeremy have a hard time making his decision, wether to side with Harris or side with his cousins the Aames. He was thinking that he should help Harris but fear what his cousin, Statler will say or do to him as his cousins knows that he is close with Harris and the other blacks.

Jeremy is brave because when he was being revealed for helping the Moe to escape, and his father was was angry with him. He did not run, he took the "punishment" from his father and got punched a number of times, insulted and was also being disowned. This showed that he is brave enough to help the blacks and brave enough to face the consequences when caught

Adjectives to describe his  character:
-considerate
'i...i know it's late'
'No,sir...i thank ya,but i wanted to talk to stacey a
minute....that be all right.'(pg 284)
Jeremy although just disowned by his father was still considerate enough to still be polite in the face of the blacks.Even when he was offered shelter from the rain as the blacks knew he had no other place which could really shelter him he politely declined as he probably knew it would be intruding into the blacks remaining time together before they were forced to part from each other to go for the war.

-polite
'we thank y'all for what ya done'(pg 27)
'most time stumbling his speech in search of words that did not offend,'(pg 37-38)
Jeremy despite being a white did not look down on the blacks and did not speak to them in a belittling tone but with a equal tone.He took care not to offend them too minding his language when with them.He also made sure to thank the blacks when his father did not thank them.

-irresolute
'Jeremy hesitated.'look stat you done had your fun with him---' followed by 'he turned and followed statler'(pg 70-71)

despite wanting to help Harris Jeremy ended up going along with Statler even though it was unwillingly.He was uncertain of what consequence he would have to face if he would have tried to reason with Statler any further and thus decided to choose the easy way out by going along with Statler,he did not have the resolution to help Harris that much if it meant making his relationship with Statler sour and thus Jeremy is irresolute.

❥ "When you leaving?" (pg 285)

❥ "We did not see Jeremy Simms again." (pg 290)

Brief elaboration:

❣ Jeremy was born and raised as a white but despite being thought to perceive the blacks as evil beings, he still does not show any signs of hatred towards the blacks and in fact, he even stands up for their rights in a more silent and low key manner. He may not be as outspoken as Mr Jamison when it comes to standing up for the blacks' rights because he is a lesser respected/valued person in the white' society, unlike Mr Jamison who is a lawyer but he does help the blacks in fighting this battle against the white's for their rights clearly knowing that if his folks and family finds out about Jermey helping the blacks, he would be disowned and for that he is courageous. For example, when Jeremy stood up for Harris when he was being verbally bullied in the shop. He was courageous for even standing up for Harris against his cousins who were the majority. Standing up against the majority requires a lot of guts even though he did try to justify why he was standing up for Harris after Statler asked him "How come you always defending niggers, Jeremy?" He did try to justify his actions so that he would not get into trouble but what he did, standing up for Harris in front of the white's was courageous of him to do. Another example is when he helped Moe hide in his truck after Moe "knocked Statler's arm away with" a "tire iron" and "smashed it full force into Statler's side." this act of his was very courageous because he could have gotten into a lot of trouble if anyone of the whites found out about him trying to help a black get away from the "consequences" he should be facing and he clearly knew of that but he still decided to help Moe though somehow, it was an act of redemption to redeem himself after what he did to them back at the Rosa Lee, it was courageous for him, knowing that his folks and family would disown him if they found Jeremy helping Moe runaway from his consequences. Another example is when he left at the end of the book, he lost everything and had no where else to go thus leading him to go to the army. He helped the black's so much as to the point where his own family disowned him and he lost everything but it did not matter to him because it "was what was right". He had that much courage to just do the right thing for the blacks, though, it was in a way, an act of redemption, he lost everything for them, even his mother, the only person he practically cared for. Thus, I do believe that a character trait of Jeremy's is that he is courageous.

Brief elaboration:
❣ Jeremy is also very unpredictable in this novel. One second he's with the blacks and the next he is just leeching onto Statler and following his commands just so that he would not be called a "nigger lover". He is portrayed as a very indecisive character in this book, he is often seen being caught up in dilemma's, unsure as to whether he should roll with the black's or the white's, thus leading him to be someone very unpredictable especially towards the readers. For example, he stood up for Harris in the shop, when Harris went to get some bullets for coon hunting. Though Harris and Jeremy were the obvious minority in this whole scene, he still courageously stands up for Harris. In this part of the novel, he seems very uneasy while standing up for Harris but at the same time he is very courageous for doing so but later on in the book, when the black's went coon hunting, little did they know the Aames, the whites, inclusive of Jeremy were making their way there too and they ended up crossing paths. Statler and his brothers ordered them to chase Harris with the dogs and made Harris run away just because they were "playing around". Jeremy did try to stand up for them, to protect his friends but he ended up falling into Statler's trap and gave into the pressure he was given. Just because Statler accused him of being a "nigger lover" he started to get defensive and then he started to follow Statler's demand. We would think that Jeremy would not allow such words to effect him but it did which resulted to him not standing up with the blacks. After that incident of Jeremy just walking off alongside Statler, Harris got severely injured from falling off a tree and getting bitten by the dogs. Jeremy then came along, offering help asking if there was anything he could do to help but of course, the blacks refused the help and then he just backed away. He is very unpredictable in this book. His actions are very unexpected and we are not 100% sure as to what his next move would be, whether he would stick with the white's or help the black's out in fighting for their freedom and rights as human beings. Therefore, Jeremy seems like a very unpredictable person.

Friendly:

Indecisive:
Brief elaboration:
Brave.
Jeremy is brave because he knows that he is a white.Despite of being a white he has power to do anything he wants without getting into trouble.Being brave is very general but Jeremy brave is different because hes a white but he is helping the Blacks when they are in touble.His help could lead both blacks n whites in great trouble.For example the incident while both whites and blacks are going  on coon hunting.Statler,Jeremys cousin decedes to say bad things about the blacks and Jeremy.Jeremy got mad "You got no call t' say that!"Jeremy shot back.This shows that Jeremy is brave to even shout back at his own cousin who is a white to actually stop Statler from ttalking bad about the blacks and himself.Therefore,i can infer that Jeremy is brave.
Humble.
Jeremy is humble.He is humble because despite being a white he is willing to lower down his superioty by saying thank you to the the blacks.He is also humble bacuse he is willing to hang out with the blacks despite that he is actually a white.For example the incident where Jeremy's Dad trucks got into trouble.After himhimself help to get the truck with the blacks.He said Thank you to the Blacks eventhough he knows that his dad will be unhappy about it and he knows that he need not need to do that ."Example is ontop pls read yourself.Hence i can infer that he is humble.
Another reason why Jeremy is Humble is because despite being a white is superior than any blacks he even ask Stacey for a car ride.Therefore he is humble.
Friendly:
Lastly Jeremy is Friendly,he is friendly because hes a lovelyy boy who loves hangin out with the blaacks.And even the blacks family doesnt really mind him hanging out with the blacks.But sometimes the black community are worried about his presence as it will lead to trouble.
"He has always been friendly ;he was like no other white boy i knew."This sentence is very strong to support that Jeremy is friendly beacuse first there is the word friendly and seconfd it is a thought that Cassie had.Its is not very common for a black to think that white is friendly and just likje what cassie said in the sentence that Jeremy is unlike any other white boy she knows and he is friendly.Hence i can say that Jeremy is Friendly.

Adjectives to describe his character:
indecisive, plucky, self-sacrificing

Quotes from the novel to support this:
Indecisive: - "Jeremy didnt say anything."                                  - "Jeremy hesitated."
plucky: -"I--I want to thank y'all for helping us                       today."
-"maybe we's even"
Self-sacrificing: -"..."

Brief elaboration:
Jeremy is , most of the time in dilemma with himself. This is seen from when Statler made the dog and his brothers chase after Harris. When statler asked jeremy if he was following them after Harris, but  Jeremy hesitated. this shows that he was clearly indecisive about what to do although he did try to stop statler and his brothers to leave Harris be. And when Statler asked jeremy for the second time if he's coming, Jeremy did not say anything. This proves that jeremy deciding whether he should follow statler. But when statler had pointed out about how he was such a "nigger lover", Jeremy immediately defended himself and just so he could prove that he wasn't a nigger lover and was, infact, Charlie Simms's son, he followed after Statler. Thus, I can say that Jeremy is indecisive.

Jeremy is bold and plucky towards the blacks. Firstly although he is a white, and he knows that having a casual conversation or even getting involved with a black could get himself into trouble, he still outwardly thanked the blacks for their help when they were helping Charlie Simms with his car. In their community, while the whites demand respect from the blacks, jeremy did not urge any. instead he treated them like any other friend would and this proves that he was a bold and courageous person unlike the rest of the white community. Secondly, Jeremy's modestness can be seen from after he dropped Moe off at the cafe so that he could escape the law of the whites, he had said that maybe helping Moe escape could be the dept that he owed them since the coon hunting incident, using the word "even". Even though the whites and the blacks could never be even in the the society, Jeremy had said that they were now even. This enhances the point of jeremy being unassertive and bold as he showed no acknowledgment of him being the superior race and treated them like an equal. Therefore I can say that Jeremy is bold and plucky.

Jeremy is self-sacrificing. He puts himself in a vulnerable position when he agreed to help Moe escape from strawberry and the law of the whites. This proves the point of him being selfless and self-sacrificing towards the blacks though the blacks are usually the ones in the vulnerable position due to the way of life then. When Stacey approached jeremy about the situation, Jeremy said that it was "askin' something awful hard of" him and they knew what could happen to jeremy if any whites found out that helped Moe escape. But in the end, " his eyes rested on us, but i couldn't read them. He said nothing." this shows that he agreed on helping Moe and even though he knew that the consequences will be deeply severe for him because he was a white and he was helping a black to escape for attacking his cousin. This enhances the point of jeremy being self-sacrificing as he was putting himself in a position that no other whites would risk especially for a black. Therefore, I can say that Jeremy is self-sacrificing.
