She makes sure they stay respectful. ]]> 2019-03-22 03:17:15 UTC https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344068504 hjoyce81 https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344069551 “No! And I want you to stop asking your grandmother for money, you hear me?” (pg.28)
Here Ruth is telling Travis to stop asking MAMA for money because she knows she doesn't have the money to give.]]> 2019-03-22 03:26:21 UTC https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344069551 hjoyce81 https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344070117 In my opinion I think Ruth is a good person. For what she is going through I think she puts a good face on. She keeps her head up and sticks by her family even though she doesn't really know what the future holds. Ruth doesn't feel sympathy for herself but I feel sympathy for her and her family for their living situation.]]> 2019-03-22 03:31:32 UTC https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344070117 hjoyce81 https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344071698 I picked a sun behind dark clouds to describe Ruth because she reminds me of light and sunshine. Through all the "darkness" she sees the bright side, the sun. I also feel like Ruth would be one of those moms that everybody loves. The Moms with the attitude but are still funny and everybody also wants to be around. I also feel That even though people thinks she is a buzz kill because she doesn't through her money around she is doing it for a reason. So that way her family is happy in the future and this will help lead them to a bigger future.]]> 2019-03-22 03:44:51 UTC https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344071698 hjoyce81 https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344073112 "Judge Me Not" by Dr. Audrey Coatesworth is a poem about not judging someone by anything except the things they do. I chose this because Ruth does not want to be judged by her skin tone or the way she dresses etc. She wants to be judge by the person she is and the things she does not only for herself but for others. Ruth respects people for who they are and she wants the same in return so i thought this poem fit her perfectly. ]]> 2019-03-22 03:54:44 UTC https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344073112 hjoyce81 https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344074053 I couldn't find the song on you tube on the Chromebook but the song I chose represent Ruth is RESPECT by Aretha Franklin. ]]> 2019-03-22 04:04:02 UTC https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344074053 hjoyce81 https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344074651 "All i'm askin is for a little respect." Like I said before Ruth is a very respectful woman. She grew up when racism was a huge thing. As a black woman she never really received much respect so I think for her this song was a perfect match. Not only does this song fit with race but it also fits with her family. She just wanted to be respected by everybody in the house, but by mostly Walter.]]> 2019-03-22 04:10:22 UTC https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344074651 hjoyce81 https://padlet.com/hjoyce81/gn5ahem3ufs0/wish/344075420 theme =class/money
quote= Ruth to Mama: “So you went and did it [bought a house]! … PRAISE GOD! Please, honey—let me be glad…you be glad, too. Oh, Walter…a home…a home.” P. 91,92 
This has to go with my project because I have been talking about money, respect. This is after Mama bought a house, Ruth is so thankful. The family is now happy and can finally live their life not stuck in a rat hole. They finally had the money to buy a house and fulfill their dreams.
