Okonkwo is an unsympathetic character in Things Fall Apart because he keeps beating up his wives and his children, not seeing the hard work they put into, and he only cares about his yams. https://padlet.com/akearns18_1/hgfxocuf0kh1/wish/158192511 2017-03-06 22:19:21 UTC https://padlet.com/akearns18_1/hgfxocuf0kh1/wish/158192511 #2 https://padlet.com/akearns18_1/hgfxocuf0kh1/wish/158192516 Okwonko is an unsympathetic person because of his traits as a harsh and ruthless man that lead him to do horrible things, of which include: beating his family whenever they don’t please him, going against the advice of an elder man in the community, and killing the boy who looked to him as a father.

He is relatable because he is sad after somebody he loves died and everybody is sad when that happens.

For example when he knew that they were going to kill Ikemefuna but instead Okonkwo was the one that killed him, Okonkwo was really depressed. If anyone asked him if he was mad or something he would get angry at them. Therefore I believe Okonkwo is an unsympathetic character.]]> 2017-03-06 22:20:42 UTC https://padlet.com/akearns18_1/hgfxocuf0kh1/wish/158192720 #2 i believe that okonkwo is more of a unsympathetic character because he hides his sad and weak emotions and only shows his strong aggressive emotions. https://padlet.com/akearns18_1/hgfxocuf0kh1/wish/158193125 2017-03-06 22:23:08 UTC https://padlet.com/akearns18_1/hgfxocuf0kh1/wish/158193125 #2 Okonkwo is a unsympathetic person because he would never become like his father, he has told himself that he must never show affection because it is showing your weakness and he’s very brutal and forceful, and he’s not really relatable because of his rude comments and beating. https://padlet.com/akearns18_1/hgfxocuf0kh1/wish/158193392 2017-03-06 22:24:28 UTC https://padlet.com/akearns18_1/hgfxocuf0kh1/wish/158193392
