I found this piece of information in paragraph 2 of ' How it feels to be colored me .' Based off of my background knowledge of Eatonville , I can infer that Zora grew up in an all black community , which concludes that most of her writing is based on how she was taught in Eatonville . This fact influences her writing by expressing her background past in her writing , which is very inspiring. - Omar Gonzalez https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/853155885 2020-10-22 16:15:10 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/853155885 Zoraly Diaz https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/853232960 fact 1-Zora was a world renowned writer and anthropologist, she was to talented she did a lot of things.

Her father remarried after her mom died. The relationship between her stepmother rapidly declined. She missed the warm and loving atmosphere that she had grown up in.   


I can conclude that Zora grew up to be very independent with herself . Her lack of a good relationship with her father and stepmother never made her rely on them. So we could tell that Zora mostly did everything by herself without the help of others.

This fact would influence her writing because the atmosphere where you grow up shapes a person. Since she really didn't have the chance to grow up and be child she went straight to hustling. So all her life was just her being hardworking and showing the true realities.

Also the British West Indies princessat4925 https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/854119332
I can conclude that Zora was a very determined and smart person. Due to the time period that she lived in, by being a black person you had to work twice as hard as people with privilege. So she got to the place where she is right now all by herself.

This fact would influence her writing because she could connect her personal experiences on her writing. She set goals for herself and achieved them. Zora wants her readers to gain knowledge after reading her writing

This influenced her writing in a way where she inspires other people to accomplish great things despise difficult circumstance. By sharing her experiences of racism she can educate others

enroll to the Morgan Academy in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1917 . She had graduated and a year later went to Howard University, she got a scholarship from there which helped her transfer to Barnard College. 


All of that shows us how outgoing Zora is and how she accomplishes everything she does. She went to many different colleges, and got a lot of scholarships. That shows how great of a person and hardworking Zora is.

Before this quote, Zora characterizes Janie as a playful child with white children in a white family. She evoked how clueless Janie was about seeing herself in a picture and how her cluelessness made "her" white family laugh. This picture depicts the smallest of details by showing that the family finds it funny that Janie has been confused her whole life as she believed she was "white" like them. Lastly, this proves the racial conflict Hurston provides to make the reader connect with the story. ]]> 2020-10-23 14:51:00 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/856046396 Chapter 1, page 2 marcelaabenavides https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/856054251 "Seeing the woman as she was made them remember the envy they had stored up from other times...Words walking without masters; walking altogether like harmony in a song." ]]> 2020-10-23 14:52:49 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/856054251 Chapter 1, page 3 joletter022005 https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/856069708 When Janie and Pheoby talk amongst themselves they say that that "an envious heart makes a treacherous ear."

When she was young, she was raised by her grandmother in a house out in the backyard of the white people she worked for. Janie said "Ah didn't know I wuzn't white till Ah was round six years old". Janie's unawareness of race lead her believe that she was the same as the white kids she played with. Reality hit hard at the age of 6 for Janie as she started to see differences in herself compared to others externally. After discovering she was colored, her life changed. She was treated differently in school and bullied because she was colored. This shows that equality back then did not exist due to the inferior belief white people had of colored people. People can be treated differently because of how the look and not who they are truly.

He noticed that she was picking out all of her flaws. He mentioned her to " don't make God look so foolish finding fault wid everything He made"(144) Janie slowly grew insecure over her appearance. She believed that as she was growing older she was no longer as beautiful as she used to be. Her looks are highly important to her because It was what boosted her confidence. tea Cake tries to reassure her and tell her she is perfect just the way God created her. He made no mistakes creating Janie. princessat4925 https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/929554554 2020-11-16 22:40:33 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/929554554 Wendoline Urias Chapter 8 Pg. 87 https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/930127362 "The young girl was gone, but a handsome woman had taken her place". Before this quote her husband was sick and because of his liver soon died, leaving Janie a widow. This quote shows that Janie has matured form the naïve little girl to a woman that understands the world. She no longer is tied and held back by her husband, she can decide what she wants to do. She was unappreciated by those around her, now that she isn't held back she realizes she is beautiful and powerful.]]> 2020-11-17 04:14:33 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/930127362 Lizbeth P https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/934860750 “Ah sho hope you ain’t lak uh possum- de older you gits, de less sense yuh got” (Ch.12, Pg.113) 
Pheoby was having a conversation with Janie about the townspeople’s opinion on her relationship with Tea Cake. Janie does not believe any of the arguments Pheoby is creating, and Pheoby worries that her age is making her blind to reality. 
Janie’s love for Tea Cake is making her blind to the eyes of the townspeople. While everyone foreshadows the negative outcomes of the relationship, Janie continues to defend her relationship and ignore society. ]]> 2020-11-18 03:14:58 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/934860750 Yarelie-Chapter 10 pg 140 https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/944183862 “Ah reckon Ah done overlayed mah leavin’ time, but Ah figgured you needed somebody tuh help yuh shut up de place.

Before this tea cake has spent the whole afternoon with him and they were being friendly with each other even though they had barely met . This quote is important because its showing us that this might be Janie's love as she has spent very nice time with him basically laughing with him the whole day not feeling lonely .

It means that she got happy and finally meet someone that she cold be. In the book it says "she seemed as if she had known him all her life" which means she's comfortable with talking to people . Then the guy was being a gentlemen.
Pg:102" She felt like a child breaking rules" this means that she was going out and having fun because of the stuff she been doing. Her being free made her feel like a little kid again. That's why it says "breaking rules"
Pg:89"But nanny belonged to that other kind that loved to deal in scraps" this means that she makes everything she could get and make it fun because it says"Some people could look at a mud-puddle and see an ocean with ships" and that could say so much about a person and how humble they could be.

stories on the mule, but Joe had forbidden her to indulge.Before this Janie was taking care of the store listening to these men talk about the mule but Joe would never let her talk to them .This again is important because it shows how overprotective he is of Janie and doesn't let her have fun and do what she wants ]]> 2020-11-20 03:49:22 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/944284832 Chapter 6, pg. 72 abigailvill2005 https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/947685261 “She was saving up her feelings for some man she had never seen.” Before this quote, Janie finally realizes that her and Joe were not destined to be together as they are too different. She still hoped for the perfect love. This quote is important because it foreshadows how Janie will probably meet the person she had yearning all her life. ]]> 2020-11-21 05:18:20 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/947685261 Chapter 8, pg. 87 abigailvill2005 https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/947686710 “The weight, the length, the glory was there.” Before this, Janie had always kept her hair because she was following Joe’s command about having her hair up. When Janie let her hair free, she was letting herself be free too. Janie was no longer restricted by a man’s word, she could finally do what she wanted. ]]> 2020-11-21 05:21:11 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/947686710 Chapter 9, pg. 90 abigailvill2005 https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/947687853 “But she had been set in the market-place to sell.” After these words of comparing herself to a jewel that was sold off, Janie described herself as a jewel that tried to shine even after being beaten by life. The quote was telling us how Janie had given away her youth and shine at a very young age because others had forced her too, like vendors at a market selling off goods. ]]> 2020-11-21 05:23:24 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/947687853 Brenda P. Chapter 7 pg.78 https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/961683417 It was another day at the store for Janie. She was asked to cut a piece of tobacco but she could never cut it right with the knife. Joe was furious and corrected Janie in front of everyone. He said, "Don't stand dere rollin' yo' rump hangin nearly to yo' knees!". The wording gave off this type of criticism and superiority people used to believe in back then. Over time, it has become known as sexual objectification. While reprimanding her, Joe insulted her and stripped Janie of her title of woman. She was a mere worker for Joe at the store and Joe only liked her because of her looks. When Janie grew older, Joe saw the beauty he married change as time passed by. He no longer felt the same way and lost interest in her as a kid looses interest in a toy. ]]> 2020-11-25 21:41:06 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/961683417 Brenda P. Chapter 6 pg.72 https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/961865845 Janie was slapped by her husband, Joe. It wasn't the first time she felt out of love with Joe, but the fact that he hit her brought some sense into Janie's head. "She had an inside and an outside now and suddenly she knew how not to mix them." Now, Janie was finally able to differentiate Ms. Starks and Janie. Although they are the same person, different personas are shown to different people. She can be herself with her best friend Pheoby, and then be Ms. Starks to the rest of the town. The delusion of love had her going, but like all thigs, came to an end. ]]> 2020-11-25 23:19:21 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/961865845 Brenda P. Chapter 9 pg.89 https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/961876578 Janie was thinking back to her family and who she really was. Her grandmother and mother lingered in Janie's mind like the aftertaste of her sweetest memories. All her experiences were used to challenge Janie to see if she herself could be the one to free her. Then, it all came to her. "But she had been whipped like a cur dog, and run off down a back road after things." Those things she mentioned were experiences. Unpleasant ones at that. Also, Janie referring to herself as a cur dog was basically Janie calling herself an unattractive, good for nothing mutt. This was Janie thinking in the perspective other people; such as Joe, thought of her. She understood who she was to herself and who she was to others. ]]> 2020-11-25 23:28:01 UTC https://padlet.com/beckbrays/abb5ogai0unyb2jp/wish/961876578
