This suggests that maybe Crooks did get a small education and only learned the basics of reading and writing. Also, Crooks did say that he grew up around white kids so he maybe did get some access to education]]> 2019-01-13 18:59:54 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320081918 Candy aung4635 https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320082619 2019-01-13 19:06:24 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320082619 Education aung4635 https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320082652 Nothing is stated about Candy's education. I think that he did not get any education and the most he learned was how to read a write. He talked about how he grew up working on ranches with his dog, leaving no time left for education.]]> 2019-01-13 19:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320082652 Artistic Symbol aung4635 https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320083129 2019-01-13 19:10:51 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320083129 Artistic Symbol aung4635 https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320083187 2019-01-13 19:11:17 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320083187 Physical/Personality Traits aung4635 https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320083400 Physical:

He kept his distance and demanded people kept theirs. His body was bent over to the left, and his eyes lay deep in his head" (Steinbeck 67).]]> 2019-01-13 19:14:21 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320083576 Family/Past aung4635 https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320084244 Not much about Candy's family or past is talked about besides his hand got lost in an accident on his farm. All that is know is that he had the dog since he was a little kid and the dog is like his only friend/family. Once Carlson shot the dog, Candy basically lost his family.]]> 2019-01-13 19:20:21 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320084244 Family/Past aung4635 https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320084256 Only a little bit is learned about his family and his past. He grew up in California and lived in a chicken ranch with his dad. Around him were many white kids who always came over to play, but his dad didn't like it. At the time Crooks didn't know why but he soon realized. He was the only colored family for miles.]]> 2019-01-13 19:20:28 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320084256 Historical Events/ Environment Factors aung4635 https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320084416 At the time,all work is being done in the fields and outdoors. Because of losing a hand, that puts Candy at a disadvantage since he doesn't have as many assets. Candy can now only clean up the place and that is it. Also, because of his age, he is not strong enough to work in the fields.]]> 2019-01-13 19:21:49 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320084416 Historical Events/ Environment Factors aung4635 https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320084462 The racial tensions at the time of the Great Depression may have caused Crooks to always feel and be lonely. This also caused him to want to shun out everyone as seen in the scene where Lennie walks into his room]]> 2019-01-13 19:22:14 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320084462 Social Life aung4635 https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320896709 Candy does not really talk to anyone besides Lennie and George. He does respect Slim, but does not talk to him as much. Before his dog was killed, he spent most of him time talking and spending time with his dog. He becomes closer with Lennie and George after losing his dog because of the idea of their own land.]]> 2019-01-15 17:45:07 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320896709 Social Life aung4635 https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320897008 Around the ranch, nobody really talks to Crooks because he is black. The only person who talks to him is Lennie because he doesn't understand racism. Also, around the farm, everyone talks down on Crooks because of his race. In the social rankings, Crooks is at the bottom getting no respect.]]> 2019-01-15 17:45:35 UTC https://padlet.com/aung4635/2qoqutf4drps/wish/320897008
