Character Analysis by Aaliyah Robinson https://padlet.com/arobinson65/tr2zn3w7oyhm Made with a warm hug en-us 2018-01-03 18:23:01 UTC 2018-01-12 01:38:00 UTC hello@padlet.com Post 1 - Character trait ( Mama ) arobinson65 https://padlet.com/arobinson65/tr2zn3w7oyhm/wish/218594744  Hardworking

" Once upon a time freedom used to be life now it's money. I guess the world really do change" ( Mama )

This qoute shows how Mama is hardworking because she give her all to her kids even her last bit of money. Even though Walter lost the money, she trusted him enough to try and fix it. Mama is hardworking to me because she still take care of her kids even though they should be taking care of her. She could be really tired and still she'll try to manage everything with the help of Ruth. Mama even sometimes looks atfer Travis like her own and little kids can be a handful. Mama has many traits but Hardworking is the main one. ]]> 2018-01-03 18:28:08 UTC https://padlet.com/arobinson65/tr2zn3w7oyhm/wish/218594744 Post 2 - Character trait ( Mama ) arobinson65 https://padlet.com/arobinson65/tr2zn3w7oyhm/wish/218601718 Wise

" It don't sound nice for a young girl to say things like that you wasn't brought up that way. Me and your father went through trouble to get you and your brother to church every sunday"

This qoute clarifies how wise mama is. Mama is wise because of many reasons, she been alive the longest. She experience things her childern didn't experience, she's doesn't like when they talk down on god. Based on Mama's character growing all she knew was god. In the book, Mama talks about her ancestors were going through the worst times and you can kind of predict it's upsetting to Mama when her kids act they way do. ]]> 2018-01-03 18:50:17 UTC https://padlet.com/arobinson65/tr2zn3w7oyhm/wish/218601718 Post 3 - Opinion of Mama arobinson65 https://padlet.com/arobinson65/tr2zn3w7oyhm/wish/220017461 Mama reminds me of my grandmother because I ask my grandmother about a lot. My opinion of Mama is she's super postive and I kind of idolize her. She took care of her kids when her husband died, not many would have the strength to carry on with life. Mama is one of them grandmothers who see the good in people even when you don't. She's the definition of an strong woman in my eyes because providing for two kids and, trying to maintain a good household is a lot of work. ]]> 2018-01-10 01:25:39 UTC https://padlet.com/arobinson65/tr2zn3w7oyhm/wish/220017461 Post 4 - Art that relates to Mama arobinson65 https://padlet.com/arobinson65/tr2zn3w7oyhm/wish/220285656 This art relates to Mama because Mama is always the person who never thinks negative.

With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise.

Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
’Cause I walk like I've got oil wells
Pumping in my living room. -  Maya Angelou

This poem relates to Mama because in "A raisin in the sun", Mama deals with a lot on her plate. Mama dealt with the death of her husband, she deals with her son's drinking problem. But, That doesn't stop her from still rising, Mama does things for the sake of others. Mama manage to buy an house for everybody because her grandson needed more space and somewhere to sleep. Most importantly, Mama's an independent person, keeping everyone happy including herself

For the better part of me
I hang my head from sorrow
State of humanity
I wear it on my shoulders
Gotta find the strength in me"

"For all the mothers fighting
For better days to come
And all my women, all my women sitting here trying
To come home before the sun"

"He finally come into his manhood today,  didn't he ? Kind of like a rainbow after the rain"  ( Mama )
My theme is change because the family went through a lot of changes, especially moving into a town where you're not wanted.The biggest change was Walter, he finally became the man everybody thought he wasn't gonna be. Another change was Beneatha's dream of being an doctor, even though her brother lost the money she had an opportunity of still becoming one. "Change is something everybody needs once in the lifetime, change can be good". Throughout the book the Younger' family changes were good and bad. ]]> 2018-01-11 00:41:37 UTC https://padlet.com/arobinson65/tr2zn3w7oyhm/wish/220427942
