Ain’t
supposed to know ’bout housekeeping. My baby, that’s
what he is." Mama just wants to make sure her grandson is cared for completely and has unlimited amounts of love.]]> 2020-01-13 17:58:17 UTC https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/430913812 Sympathizing with the character kkaelin52 https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431493247 Even though Mama struggles financially, I do not pity her. She makes the best out of what she has in life even when life gets hard. One of Mamas strengths are the unlimited amount of love she has to give and her ability to work hard for what she wants. Her weakness is her children, they definitely hold her back from her dreams in life and their problems between each other effect her. ]]> 2020-01-14 18:43:58 UTC https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431493247 Art kkaelin52 https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431498451 This art piece resembles mama because she is hard working. It shows the struggles she pushes through. Also the weights she has on her shoulders while she pushes through everyday. ]]> 2020-01-14 18:51:11 UTC https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431498451 Poem kkaelin52 https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431501692 Mama is the most loving character in the play. She is always there when anyone has a problem and she is completely supportive. Her daughter-in-law Ruth found out she was pregnant mama gave her an unlimited amount of love to help her through the days.]]> 2020-01-14 18:55:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431501692 Song kkaelin52 https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431502524 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwB9EMpW8eY
Hands, put your empty hands in mine
And scars, show me all the scars you hide
And hey, if your wings are broken
Please take mine so yours can open too
'Cause I'm gonna stand by you
Oh, tears make kaleidoscopes in your eyes
And hurt, I know you're hurting, but so am I
And love, if your wings are broken
Borrow mine so yours can open too
'Cause I'm gonna stand by you

Even if we're breaking down, we can find a way to break through
Even if we can't find heaven, I'll walk through hell with you
Love, you're not alone, 'cause I'm gonna stand by you
Even if we can't find heaven, I'm gonna stand by you
Even if we can't find heaven, I'll walk through hell with you
Love, you're not alone, 'cause I'm gonna stand by you

Yeah, you're all I never knew I needed
And the heart, sometimes it's unclear why it's beating
And love, if your wings are broken
We can brave through those emotions too
'Cause I'm gonna stand by you
Oh, truth, I guess truth is what you believe in
And faith, I think faith is helping to reason
No, no, no, love, if your wings are broken
Borrow mine so yours can open too
'Cause I'm gonna stand by you

Even if we're breaking down, we can find a way to break through
Even if we can't find heaven, I'll walk through hell with you
Love, you're not alone, 'cause I'm gonna stand by you
Even if we can't find heaven, I'm gonna stand by you
Even if we can't find heaven, I'll walk through hell with you
Love, you're not alone, 'cause I'm gonna stand by you

I'll be your eyes when yours can't shine
I'll be your arms, I'll be your steady satellite
And when you can't rise, well, I'll cry with you on hands and knees
'Cause I
(I'm gonna stand by you)

Even if we're breaking down, we can find a way to break through (come on)
Even if we can't find heaven, I'll walk through hell with you
Love, you're not alone, 'cause I'm gonna stand by you
Even if we can't find heaven, I'm gonna stand by you
Even if we can't find heaven, I'll walk through hell with you
Love, you're not alone, 'cause I'm gonna stand by you
Love, you're not alone
No, I'm gonna stand by you
(Even if we can't find heaven, heaven, heaven)
I'm gonna stand by you

Right away the first few words of the song jumped out to me because of house caring Mama is. She would take anyone's pain away and stand with them through it all.]]> 2020-01-14 18:56:46 UTC https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431502605 A Raisin in the Sun THEME kkaelin52 https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431807614 The main theme in 'A Raisin in the Sun' is dreams. Every character has individual dreams in the play and they all try and live up to them, however they come to realize it's not realistic dreams that they have. ]]> 2020-01-15 13:03:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431807614 Fences THEME kkaelin52 https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431807669 One theme in 'Fences' is love. While there is much betrayal throughout the play, there is much love as well. Rose puts all her love into her kids even the daughter that isn't hers, she shows endless love to. ]]> 2020-01-15 13:03:15 UTC https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431807669 Comparison kkaelin52 https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431807768 Both 'A Raisin in the Sun' and 'Fences' can compare because they both revolve around family love, betrayal, and racism. Both Mama in 'A Raisin in the Sun' and Rose in 'Fences' give endless amounts of love to their families. On the other hand Walter and Troy both betrayed their families trust throughout the play at least once.]]> 2020-01-15 13:03:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kkaelin52/e15euhvxce97/wish/431807768
