He expresses anger often after drinking, he longs to have a plentiful life for him and his family, and he's very reactive to anything negative that is said to him like when he was arguing with his mom, he was being reactive and just getting angrier.]]> 2022-05-26 18:08:18 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201209727 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201210383 Angry, Fed Up, Tired. He just got into a fight with mama about how he doesn't like his job, and how he can't stand the thought of continuing to work as a chauffeur because its not a real job.]]> 2022-05-26 18:08:55 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201210383 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201211126 From Walter's argument with George, I've learned that Walter takes offense easily and prefers to show dominance physically through his voice and position, especially when he feels threatened. He will talk down to other men in order to show dominance.]]> 2022-05-26 18:09:41 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201211126 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201211307 From what I can see, he seems angry, longing, impatient, and tired. He's frustrated that his job isn't the best to his eyes, and how he wishes the best for his family. ]]> 2022-05-26 18:09:52 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201211307 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201212118 The character i would relate too the most is Walter because he really works hard for his family and provides alot. He puts in work to make his family successful.]]> 2022-05-26 18:10:39 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201212118 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201212223 Mama is very wise, loving, caring and would do anything for her family. She would sit down with anyone and give them advice on to life, from what I can see]]> 2022-05-26 18:10:45 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201212223 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201213492 Loving, Grateful, Understanding
Mama is loving because she has taken care of her children for so long and did everything she could when they were younger, she is grateful for the things her family has now, like freedom, so she's not worried about becoming rich from the money because she's grateful for the life she has now. She understands her children's issues and tries to reason with them and help. ]]> 2022-05-26 18:11:59 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201213492 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201214836 frustrated, angry, cornered. He continually lashes out at everyone who he perceives as crossing him, which forces his family to distance themselves at times. He clearly loves his family and wishes he could provide better, but the frustration in his work and living situation causes him to be hyperreactive. ]]> 2022-05-26 18:13:12 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201214836 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201216404 I think that George calls Walter Lee Prometheus as an insult because George thinks Walter views himself as liberated/defiant of George's educated, wealthier demographic. In this situation, George views himself and his colleagues as the gods from which Prometheus (Walter) is stealing, rather than how Walter views himself as above those, like George, who place value in education. Both George and Walter are in conflict similar to Prometheus and the other Greek gods, and neither of them are willing to admit wrong.]]> 2022-05-26 18:14:41 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201216404 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201328304 Traditional, Snappy, Caring. Mama is a woman who tried her hardest to get her kids to church and also helped support her kids even out of school providing them with a roof over their heads. However if you say the wrong thing she wont hesitate to discipline you.]]> 2022-05-26 20:31:03 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2201328304 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2211788214 Walter is determined, frustrated and persistent. In Act 1 Scene 2 Walter attempts to show his mom papers concerning a liquor store and mama insists that Walter talk to his wife instead. His reaction was shouting out, "will someone please listen to me today!" We see him being angry and frustrated but we can also interpret him as being determined and persistent about wanting a liquor store.]]> 2022-06-06 04:56:41 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2211788214 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2211847199 Mama is authoritative, nurturing and faithful. We can also see that Mama has an authoritative parenting style even though her children are well beyond that age. In Act 1 Scene 1 Beneatha tells her mother and Ruth that she doesn't believe in god. And Mama then slaps her, as discipline I'm assuming. In this scene Mama is in control making Beneatha say, "in my mother's house there is still God." Mama is showing confidence and expects to be obeyed and respected, of course because she is her mother.]]> 2022-06-06 06:29:14 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2211847199 https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2213009994 I emphasize with Ruth. She is a working mother but is also a housewife and that can be tiring. She has a strained relationship with her husband. The household is quite loud so she often has to bring peace to it. Along with that, I view her daily life as draining and dreary and we can see how that affects her. ]]> 2022-06-07 03:35:53 UTC https://padlet.com/gentletmcg/no83zlfi1k6m46gj/wish/2213009994
