And how this tragic/devastating theme means almost two different things in these situations? 2215421 https://padlet.com/chsd230/9cz50g2n3e072ge4/wish/999797678 2020-12-08 19:40:49 UTC https://padlet.com/chsd230/9cz50g2n3e072ge4/wish/999797678 How long was Sethe in jail for? Why doesn't she get the death penalty for murder given the time period? kprzybylski1 https://padlet.com/chsd230/9cz50g2n3e072ge4/wish/1003607822 Sethe is only in jail for 3 months. The reason she isn't given the death penalty and that her sentence is so short is because groups/organizations advocated for her release. She says that the "Colored Ladies of Delaware, Ohio had drawn up a petition to keep me from being hanged." ]]> 2020-12-09 18:57:50 UTC https://padlet.com/chsd230/9cz50g2n3e072ge4/wish/1003607822 In Chapter 27, after the women 'sang away' Beloved, a little boy says he saw a naked woman, who I assume is Beloved, fleeing through the woods "with fish for hair," what did he mean by that? 2215421 https://padlet.com/chsd230/9cz50g2n3e072ge4/wish/1032371866 2020-12-18 19:08:27 UTC https://padlet.com/chsd230/9cz50g2n3e072ge4/wish/1032371866
