Kingston tells the story from her point of view as if she was Fa Mu Lan. She disguises herself as a man and builds her army against the baron. She fights while pregnant then after giving birth she sends the child to her family. When the battles are over she returns to her family, husband, and child.
In America, Kingston studies at Berkeley and protests against the Vietnam War, she finds power in language. ]]> 2023-01-27 18:11:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mb275/bvlehnl8sbqloclk/wish/2459312740 cc905 https://padlet.com/mb275/bvlehnl8sbqloclk/wish/2459434258 2023-01-27 20:14:08 UTC https://padlet.com/mb275/bvlehnl8sbqloclk/wish/2459434258 cc905 https://padlet.com/mb275/bvlehnl8sbqloclk/wish/2459556738 Fa Mu Lan's drive to avenge came from her parents when they told her, "we are going to carve revenge on your back"(Kingston34). The words on her back reminded her why she needed to seek vengeance. Fa Mu Lan wants to avenge the powerful who take advantage of the "powerless" like her family and village.]]> 2023-01-28 00:31:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mb275/bvlehnl8sbqloclk/wish/2459556738 cc905 https://padlet.com/mb275/bvlehnl8sbqloclk/wish/2459573430 Kingston wants to avenge her family but she knows she can't do it the way Fa Mu Lan did yet she says, "To avenge my family, I'd have to storm across China to take back our farm from the Communists"(Kingston49). This is the first thing Kingston thinks of doing to avenge her family; however, she then figures out another thing can do. She finds power in language and uses her voice to protest.]]> 2023-01-28 01:23:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mb275/bvlehnl8sbqloclk/wish/2459573430 mb275 https://padlet.com/mb275/bvlehnl8sbqloclk/wish/2459631658 Kingston went up to the Baron and confronted him about the things he took away from her. She had shown the sayings on her back and said, "you are responsible for this" (Kingston 44). She had gone through hell and back for just being a girl at that time which led to her getting those tattoos. In revenge for that, Kingston beheaded the Baron as he didn't even shown any sympathy for her.]]> 2023-01-28 04:58:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mb275/bvlehnl8sbqloclk/wish/2459631658
