- Why is who Beneatha should marry, George or Asagi, even an issue? Isn't she a college student? Do doctors need to be married?
- Why does Beneatha say "Where is the bottom!" about Walter (p. 142)? Why is selling the house to Linder at a profit worse than drinking, worse than losing the family's money in ill-advised schemes?
- What does Mama's plant signify? (Or am I wrong? Is it even a symbol? (...sometimes a plant is just a plant...)).
- This play was timely. It was about African American struggles and segregation in a time period, the 1950s, when those issues were going on outside the playhouse walls. However, fifty years have passed. Why is it still relevant? (If it is...)
Have a Happy Thanksgiving.
1. I THINK THAT BENEATHA IS NOT READY FOR MARRIAGE BECAUSE SHE WANT TO FOCUS ON HER GOALS AND TO BECOMES SOMETHING IN LIFE. GEORGE OR ASAGI IS AN ISSUE TO BENNIE BECAUSE THAT WANT BE WITH HER AND SHE IS NOT EVEN READY TO ENGAGE IN AN RELATIONSHIP EVEN THOUGH SHE MIGHT WANTED BUT SHE SEE'S HER AS TO ACCOMPLISH HER DREAM BUT THEIR VIEW WAS DIFFERENT FROM HER PERSPECTIVE HAS TO HOW SHE WOULD SEE THINGS HAS TO WHAT SHE WANT/NEED.
ReplyDeleteB. YES SHE IS A COLLEGE STUDENT WHO WANT TO FINISH SCHOOL AND BECOME A DOCTOR.
C. YES DOCTOR NEED TO BE MARRIED BECAUSE HAS WORKING SO HARD DURING THE DAY, THEY ARE GOING TO NEED SOMEONE TO GO HOME TO FOR COMFORT AND LOVE.
2.BENEATHA SAID "WHERE IS THE BOTTOM!" TO WALTER BECAUSE HE HAS CAUGHT UP IN SOMETHING MORE BEYOND THE FAMILY BECAUSE THEY THINK THAT THEY COULD TRUST HIM ENOUGH TO CARE FOR THE FAMILY BUT HE KEPT ON MESSING UP THINGS AND WANT TO JEOPARDIZE THE FAMILY DREAMS
B. SELLING THE HOUSE TO LINDA WHO BE A GOOD THING BUT ALSO CAN CAUSE A BAD DECISION BECAUSE AFTER WORKING SO HARD TO GET A PLACE, THINGS SEEM TO BE GOING DOWN WARD BUT MAMA WASN'T HAVING BECAUSE SHE NEED A GOOD HOME AND A LIFETIME MEMORIES TO KEEP THE FAMILY ALIVE AND TO ALSO GO FOR THEIR DREAM.
3. MAMA PLANT IS A SYMBOL OF LIFE AND OPPORTUNITIES. IT DWELL BEYOND THE REACH OF HOPE AND BAND OF CONNECTION BECAUSE IT A PRODUCT THAT BENEFIT THE FULFILLMENT OF HEALTH AND ENCOURAGEMENT.
4.I THINK THAT THIS PLAY IS STILL RELEVANT BECAUSE IT STILL SPEAK ABOUT FAMILY SEGREGATION, AND TELL YOU HOW OTHER FAMILY IS LIVING AND HOW WE SHOULD TAKE PRECAUTION OF OUR GOALS, DREAM AND COMING TOGETHER AS ONE FAMILY.
