she wanted to know about. She had already experienced them
through Logan and Joe. She felt like slapping some of them for
sitting around grinning at her like a pack of chessy cats, trying
to make out they looked like love. ]]> 2017-01-09 16:51:05 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146042641 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146429721 2017-01-11 05:32:33 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146429721 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146429728 2017-01-11 05:32:46 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146429728 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146490135 2017-01-11 13:04:05 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146490135 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146490186 2017-01-11 13:04:29 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146490186 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146490224 2017-01-11 13:04:44 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146490224 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491510 2017-01-11 13:10:45 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491510 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491683 2017-01-11 13:11:32 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491683 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491713 2017-01-11 13:11:41 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491713 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491752 2017-01-11 13:11:55 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491752 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491881 2017-01-11 13:12:29 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491881 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491958 2017-01-11 13:12:51 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491958 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491989 2017-01-11 13:12:58 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146491989 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146492006 2017-01-11 13:13:03 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146492006 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146492309 2017-01-11 13:14:20 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146492309 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146493190 The concept of freedom directly ties into all of Janie's relationships and all throughout her life. Janie starts out wanting only one thing from life, which is the choice to pick her own future from the endless horizon she sees ahead of her. Each relationship Janie is in though, results in her losing a piece of her freedom, shrinking her horizons. In Self Reliance, Emerson says, "These are the voices which we hear in solitude, but they grow faint and inaudible as we enter into the world. Society everywhere is in conspiracy against the manhood of every one of its members. Society is a joint-stock company, in which the members agree, for the better securing of his bread to each shareholder, to surrender the liberty and culture of the eater. The virtue in most request is conformity". This relates to Janie in the sense that as she enters new relationships she is the member surrendering her liberty and the shareholder is the person she is with. Janie conforms to their will and ultimately receives poor treatment.]]> 2017-01-11 13:18:13 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146493190 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146493866 2017-01-11 13:21:37 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146493866 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146554856  Ah can’t be always guidin’ yo’ feet from harm and danger.

mad. Tea Cake and Mrs. Mayor Starks! All the men that she
could get, and fooling with somebody like Tea Cake! Another
thing, Joe Starks hadn’t been dead but nine months and here
she goes sashaying off to a picnic in pink linen. Done quit
attending church, like she used to. Gone off to Sanford in a car
with Tea Cake and her all dressed in blue! It was a shame. ]]> 2017-01-11 16:27:00 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146561855 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146563254 2017-01-11 16:30:42 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146563254 186214 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146564117  Then the
strange white man that was going to talk for her got up there.
He whispered a little with the clerk and then called on Janie
to take the stand and talk. After a few little questions he told
her to tell just how it happened and to speak the truth, the
whole truth and nothing but the truth. So help her God. ]]> 2017-01-11 16:33:06 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146564117 186656 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146569531 https://notegraphy.com/dirtyrads/note/3003604]]> 2017-01-11 16:46:26 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146569531 186214 https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146573386 2017-01-11 16:55:43 UTC https://padlet.com/186656/dn2emotmmrmt/wish/146573386
