"I don't have rhythm" I say.

"Be serious" he says and flashes the pistols at me "What if you could resurrect your parents with these? Would you kill a white man if it would bring back your mother?" (p.32)

The first time reading this part of the story I was wondering why the person asked if he would kill a white person specifically I don't know if it was meant by someone that was white he knew or a random white person.

I think its important for novels theme because the main character doesn't have parents because he lost them at a young age and this question makes sense because it is asking him if he does this task his mom would come back. This does follow a certain thing they mentioned in the novel.

The most common notice and note strategies that I've found in Flight by Sherman Alexie has been Zits has the idea or he wants to kill somebody or try to experience that feeling as he shows in the book. An example of Zits trying to kill somebody or do harm is being used in the novel is found in chapter "3" and it states "Then we go up on the roof of the warehouse and practice shooting at cars driving by on the freeway"(pg.33)This makes me wonder if he is going through something hard in his life because of the he says it, so calm. I think that the author includes this in the novel to make it interesting and make more action in the book. It also helps the reader make connections to the theme of reality of some teens or people through a novel.
