Rasium

Chapter 4 in Of Mice and Man, paints a very realistic portrait of racism in the 1930s. Discuss at least two ways in which racism is explored in this chapter. Include quotes and your own analysis of key moments in this chapter that clearly demonstrate the racism that existed in the American 1930s. What do readers understand about racism as a result of reading this chapter?

Reponse

There are many ways to show rasium in this book ..
There is a character in the story named crooks and they get on him because he is black and there are ways of people showing rasium by the color of someone skin color but just of the amount of money some one has. So these are some many ways to show rasium

Naturalism

Let's see if you can make the connection! Think about some of the naturalistic elements we identified in class (Chapter 1). What aspects or characteristics of the 1930s are being demonstrated to us at those moments in the text? What do you believe John Steinbeck was trying to show us or expose about the way people, life, or society was during this time in American history?

Response

Some of the aspects of naturalism that is in the book is that when george goes to camp and talks behind his friends back and I feel like is a peace of realism and because he was not keeping it real wit his real and a part of naturalism because he is taking control of lennie

Chapter 4

George and slim are talking about some type of plan and It seems like they are trying to get lennie to sleep some where that they know he wont like I feel like George is a trader becsuse that bunk bed is suppose to be lennie and his bunk bed so know  him and slim are Trying to put him some where that they know that lenjie wont agree on. Something else that happen in this chapter was that I feel George is really fake because on page 40 it says " I use to have a hell a lot of fun wit him. I use to play jokes on him because he was just to dum to care of himself.but he wa also to dumb yo realise that jokes were being played on him. I had fun" this showes how careless George is about lennie.

Chapter 3

Through out the story so far we have 4 chacters.the new chacter name is curly and slim. Slim seems very slick about the thing he does. Another thing id that he put things in George head and tries to encourage him to go things. For instance, on pg 39 it says "it wasn't nothing" slim repeated. "say,you sure was right about him." Maybe he anit that bright but he sure is a hard worker" this shows that he is down grading beacuse hevis saying that he is not bright but he is shock due to the things that Lennie can do that George cant

Chapter2

In chapter two it decribe how George and Lennie when in the place it had a bunk bed and it was decribing how it was dirty and how there was a lot of bugs and how it has lice and all the had to sleep on was that gard bunk bed and how the had just a throw blanket to but over them.  It seemed like the bunk they were in was hell I feel bad for them
