Dee wanted the churn top, dasher and the two quilts that Mama had already promised to give to Maggie.
Mama told her to take any other quilts, just not the ones for Maggie.
Explanation:
Alice Walker's short story <em>Everyday Use</em> tells the story of an African American family's conflicting perspectives on their heritage. The themes of the story involve their black consciousness, the daughters' differing approaches to the American life, their own misconceptions and perspectives on their own African heritage.
Dee aka Wangero Leewanika Kemanjo is the daughter of Mama and sister of Maggie. She had changed her name to go along her boyfriend's beliefs and did not have the same approach and belief in her own cultural heritage as that of her sister or mother. She wanted the churn top, the dasher, and the two quilts that Mama had already promised to give to Maggie.
She got the churn top and dasher but not the quilts. In this matter, Mama put her foot down and did not allow her to get them. Rather, she was asked to take other quilts, just not the ones that are for Maggie.
