Question

6. Is Dee wholly unsympathetic? Is the mother's victory over her altogether

Answer 1

Answer:

Dee is not wholly unsympathetic as she plays a character which gives voice to the Black Power Movement. She tries to preserve the family items.

Mothers Victory is not wholly positive as she stood up for one of her daughter and this may have resulted in loss of the other daughter.

The final scene between mother and daughter is very emotional and the moment is not ambivalence as Maggie is happy for what her mother did, her mother helped her in enhancing her self esteem and the moment is shared happily between mother and daughter.
