She had to choose between the approval of others and loving Tea Cake. If she were to choose the approval of others she would’ve lost the love of Tea Cake.

He wants her love and believes that he would the correct choice for her. Not only that, but he was quite persistent when it came to trying to get her to accept his love - as well as love him back.

In the song Khalid says, “...you’ve got me stranded…” That can be connected to when Janie leaves Logan for Joe Starks. I guess in a way you can say that he was left Hopeless.]]> 2017-03-16 05:40:31 UTC https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160426959 marrianejoys14 https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427010 When I first heard this song, it reminded me of the seconds before Tea Cake died. When Janie was holding him and hoping that he wouldn’t leave her. She didn’t want to feel the pain of him being gone and wouldn’t be able to stay Jacksonville anymore.]]> 2017-03-16 05:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427010 marrianejoys14 https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427026 Just a powerful song about how women are much more powerful than others believe. Janie was able to wrap any man she wanted to around her finger with just the bat of an eye. She, however, had her power suppressed by the men in her life wanting her to be submissive and obedient(except Tea Cake most of the time).

She is realizing that she doesn’t need the weight of Jody on her back. She shows growth as a character through her release of Jody’s oppressing ways.]]> 2017-03-16 05:42:15 UTC https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427071 marrianejoys14 https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427089 After Janie stands up for herself in front of Joe Starks friends, Joe completely stops talking to her. He asks for another woman to make his meals and doesn’t allow her to sleep by him anymore. She is cut off from any type of communication with him, even though the two used to be inseparable. ]]> 2017-03-16 05:42:33 UTC https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427089 marrianejoys14 https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427122 Even though the song says she, this can be related to the time period after the death of Tea Cake. Janie is no longer the happy woman she used to be and mourns the death of her one true love. Her sunshine is gone and she is now a dark, dull human being.

They begin to gossip about her(probably their assumptions about her and Tea Cake). This song talks about hearing about her life from other people, which Janie encountered many times before and after leaving with Tea Cake.]]> 2017-03-16 05:43:26 UTC https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427139 marrianejoys14 https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427166

This symbolizes the life that she had with Logan Killicks. She was convinced by Nanny to marry him for safety, but she was unable to fall in love with him. They had their married life going well, but they were missing the most important thing, love, in their marriage.

This song is supposed to symbolize when Janie left Logan. He wanted her to stay , but she decided to leave with Joe Starks instead.]]> 2017-03-16 05:44:11 UTC https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427183 marrianejoys14 https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427198 This is a closing song for the novel. She accepted Tea Cakes death and told Phoebe about everything. She finally reached a state of relaxation and peace that she hasn't felt before. She finally found her voice after looking for it in other people.]]> 2017-03-16 05:44:27 UTC https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427198 marrianejoys14 https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427239 Hello! Welcome to my playlist for Their Eyes Were Watching God  by Zora Neale Hurston. For this playlist, I have handpicked 12 songs that I find suits the novel well. Some of these songs are purely for the sake of the way it sounds rather than the lyrics that are written for it. While listening to this play list, you'll find that you can be taken back to certain parts of the novel via the lyrics or the sound. I went throughout the internet-along with my own playlists-trying to find the strongest songs to add to the mixtape. I hope at least one song is satisfactory to your taste in music. :)]]> 2017-03-16 05:45:25 UTC https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160427239 marrianejoys14 https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160428430 2017-03-16 06:07:40 UTC https://padlet.com/marrianejoys14/tp9wu1qort0n/wish/160428430
