An аuthоr whо writes а plаy is called
Pleаse re-reаd the pаssage belоw frоm page 3 оf Alice Walker's "Everyday Use." Then write two well-developed paragraphs (10-12 sentences) that use at least 4 quotes from this passage (2 in each paragraph) to answer these questions: 1) How does Dee’s clothing, hairstyle, and greeting reflect the cultural influences of the Black Power and Pan-African movements, and how do these choices contrast with Mama and Maggie’s more traditional Southern rural identity? 2) How does Mama’s description of Dee’s appearance, speech, and behavior reveal her attitude toward Dee’s newfound cultural identity, and what does this suggest about Mama’s own perspective on heritage and authenticity? Passage: Dee next. A dress down to the ground, in this hot weather. A dress so loud it hurts my eyes. There are yellowsand oranges enough to throw back the light of the sun. I feel my whole face warming from the heat waves itthrows out. Earrings gold, too, and hanging down to her shoulders. Bracelets dangling and making noiseswhen she moves her arm up to shake the folds of the dress out of her armpits. The dress is loose and flows,and as she walks closer, I like it. I hear Maggie go "Uhnnnh" again. It is her sister's hair. It stands straight uplike the wool on a sheep. It is black as night and around the edges are two long pigtails that rope about likesmall lizards disappearing behind her ears. "Wa.su.zo.Tean.o!" she says, coming on in that gliding way the dress makes her move. The short stocky fellowwith the hair to his navel is all grinning and he follows up with "Asalamalakim, my mother and sister!" Hemoves to hug Maggie but she falls back, right up against the back of my chair. I feel her trembling there andwhen I look up I see the perspiration falling off her chin. "Don't get up," says Dee. Since I am stout it takes something of a push. You can see me trying to move asecond or two before I make it. She turns, showing white heels through her sandals, and goes back to the car.Out she peeks next with a Polaroid. She stoops down quickly and lines up picture after picture of me sittingthere in front of the house with Maggie cowering behind me. She never takes a shot without mak' ing surethe house is included. When a cow comes nibbling around the edge of the yard she snaps it and me andMaggie and the house. Then she puts the Polaroid in the back seat of the car, and comes up and kisses me onthe forehead. Meanwhile Asalamalakim is going through motions with Maggie's hand. Maggie's hand is as limp as a fish,and probably as cold, despite the sweat, and she keeps trying to pull it back. It looks like Asalamalakim wantsto shake hands but wants to do it fancy. Or maybe he don't know how people shake hands. Anyhow, he soongives up on Maggie.
