When Native Son was set, African American Individuals were not regarded as an actual part of society but rather a blemish on it's face. ]]> 2017-04-27 16:46:11 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168693701 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168694471 I chose this picture because I feel that Bigger wants to have some of the more expensive things in life.]]> 2017-04-27 16:48:43 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168694471 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168695047 I chose this picture of my friend because it shows how we have the privilege to do many things that Bigger wasn't able to do. When Bigger described his activities with his friends, he said that they often either went to the poolroom, one of the only places they were welcome, or robbed convenience stores because they didn't have the money to purchase anything. While my friends and are able to order food to the school. ]]> 2017-04-27 16:50:52 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168695047 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168695348 One of the funnest things for me is to grow flowers and my own food that will be enjoyed by others.]]> 2017-04-27 16:51:54 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168695348 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168695966 2017-04-27 16:54:15 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168695966 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168696132 I chose this picture to represent Bigger's cultural identity, because I feel that the American flag still hanging despite the condition of it's surroundings accurately reflects and symbolizes the attitude of African American culture in that era.]]> 2017-04-27 16:55:00 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168696132 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168696817 I think that this picture represents a large portion of Bigger's identity. The restrictiveness of Bigger's race, as well as economic standin in the time period leaves him feeling like his path in life as been predetermined, and he has no control. In this photo, the tree represents Bigger's fatalistic view of himself: that he is being forced and guided to a path he has no choice in. ]]> 2017-04-27 16:57:10 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168696817 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168696922 Bigger feels trapped within his life because he is black and feels unimportant to the rest of the world. He is intimidated by white culture and therefor is constantly fearful. He has an angry fire within himself because he is not offered the same opportunities as white men and women. This fear motivates his violent actions in the book. However, he feels he cannot share these feelings with the rest of the world because he is distrustful to others. ]]> 2017-04-27 16:57:28 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168696922 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168696925 This represents bigger's home life because he was born into and is still dealing with poverty( not financially stable]]> 2017-04-27 16:57:28 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168696925 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168697111 She plays soccer ]]> 2017-04-27 16:58:10 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168697111 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168697413 This picture represents Bigger's cultural identity. People in society have made him believe that he was at the bottom of society, they made him feel like trash.

As an African American I am very lucky to have the opportunities that I have. In Native Son Bigger is not able to have positive outlets and express himself so he turns to violence.

The different colors on the paint brushes, as well as the the different sizes and shapes represent all of the different sources of inspiration in my life. This variety of viewpoints and opportunities I have are in direct contrast to Bigger's life, where his opportunities are severly limited ]]> 2017-04-27 17:05:37 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168699370 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168699406 2017-04-27 17:05:44 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168699406 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168699407 Bigger feels like his whole life has been leading towards a big event and there's nothing he can do to stop it.

I'm counting down to the end of school year. I'm counting down to my AP tests. I'm counting down to an important email about this program I've applied to. I'm counting down to something in the future. ]]> 2017-04-27 18:29:03 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168726544 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168740033 Other than the fact that I barely have a social life due to my parents...

Biggers knows that he will never be able to make his family life better and he also knows he won't be as successful as a white man would be. Bigger also has not positive outlet to let out his emotions so his dominate emotion is anger that he is holding in.]]> 2017-04-28 00:09:39 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168776087 https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168783389 Bigger being an African American male at the time experienced major defiance by others, but also limited to what he could achieve. Everybody has their personal goals and Bigger was set at a limit that he could never surpass due to his race. Also, the oppurtunities given related to his race. This picture represents bigger being in jail behind bars with the symbol of the gate it shows that they are enclosed and kept at a limit because they as in Bigger and African Americans throughout generations are placed in jail. In some cases there is nothing for them to do and their only option is to hope and strive until justice is won period. ]]> 2017-04-28 01:31:16 UTC https://padlet.com/paynea1/hunt4/wish/168783389
