For example, right now Baltimore is one of the poorest cities in America and a lot of black people live in Baltimore so I think black people are being treated unfairly because of racism.]]> 2018-01-26 18:44:58 UTC https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225187559 https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225188663 2018-01-26 18:47:21 UTC https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225188663 https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225188921 I also think Walter could be considered the main character in the play, because he is always complaining, and the play also revolves around him because he wants a lot to do with the money that mama is getting. ]]> 2018-01-26 18:47:54 UTC https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225188921 https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225189084 Mama's plant is an important symbol because in the novel when they bought their new house, they were moving their furniture and everything but Ruth asks Mama if she's going to bring the old plant to the other house. Mama says she is because shes says it represents her and how old she is.]]> 2018-01-26 18:48:16 UTC https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225189084 https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225189576 I agree with Gabe because everything that happens that is good something bad happens as a result. For example when they bought a new house their neighbors didn't want them in their neighborhood. I also agree with Georgia because Walter is always sad or angry and is always complaining. For example he complains about how he doesn't like his job and how his dreams never come true.  ]]> 2018-01-26 18:49:22 UTC https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225189576 https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225189578 2018-01-26 18:49:22 UTC https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225189578 https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225189591 The play represents a negative outlook on life. The person who best represents this outlook is Willy Harris, just because Willy is a scumbag who deserves to go to prison for a very long time.]]> 2018-01-26 18:49:25 UTC https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225189591 https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225190055 I said that it was a both positive and negative view of life but mostly positive because when one of the characters was not feeling very good about the world there was another character that would cheer them up and show them the positive side.  I think that Mama demonstrates this the best because when Ruth found out she was pregnant, Mama cheered her up,  and when Walter lost all the money Mama was the one who told Beneatha to consider Walter's feelings and in the end Walter ends up standing up for himself. Also in the end they reached their goal of moving into the new house and all the adults volunteer to work more to pay for the house because they have hope for a better future and they want a better life for all the children in the world. ]]> 2018-01-26 18:50:32 UTC https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225190055 https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225190069 I agree with everyone that said positive and negative. In the play, the family faces struggles, and where it seems like there is no hope, a light shines through. Things get better. This play shows that even though there are struggles, you still need to fight through it, and still need to try to have a good time with life. Mrs. Johnson also tells the family that they need to look at the bright side, and always try to have a good time with life. She says that life gets harder, but you still need to get through it. There were many many struggles during the play, but they still reached their goal, buying the house.]]> 2018-01-26 18:50:35 UTC https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225190069 https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225190122 I think the main character is Ruth. I say this because Ruth is the one that is involved in almost every conflict and sometimes it's about her. For example, a conflict around Ruth is her pregnancy. Beneatha gets mad because they don't know where to put the baby.]]> 2018-01-26 18:50:41 UTC https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225190122 https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225190161 i think mama represents this viewpoint the best because shes the oldest and the most experienced with facing these problems and she makes statements on life on how society can change people]]> 2018-01-26 18:50:46 UTC https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225190161 https://padlet.com/smcshane/ARITS10/wish/225190975 I think the play portrays a negative life style, and Walter does the best job of showing this, because Walter comes home drunk from the bar, and he lashes out at his family, and basically gives all of his and his sisters money away.  This shows that walter isn't very lucky or considerate and that shows a negative life style.
