Class for 6/18 2008 Wat what is a woman of color

Toni Morrison "Recititaf":
This was a story about two girls who find themselves in an orphanage, not because of the death of their parents, but rather because their parents could not take care of them. Twyla and Roberta are of two different races, however we do not know who is black and who is white. Margaret was the mute figure in the story however, she seems to tie the story together as a whole. She seemed to serve as a link between the kids and the adults. The themes that i felt were most prevalent in the story were, Family, Friendship, Oppression, and Discrimination. I felt that this was mostly a story about life; the things that we can control and the things that we cannot control.
