After Jaja refuses to take Communion, defying Papa, and Papa breaks the figurines, the family is forever changed. This change is

neither all bad nor all good. It marks the beginning of the end of Papa's oppressive rule. Mama speaks louder, smiles a little, and doesn't sneak around. Jaja continues to defy Papa without consequence. Yet, something about the new state of things is still going to hurt them, the way glass can cut after breaking. The symbol of the figurines as representing their submission to Papa's rule is clarified in this metaphor.

Kay [80]
Yes, the lady in Cullen's poem is a deeply prejudiced and ignorant person, who doesn't want to really get to know black people as they are. Those prejudices seem to be so deeply engraved in collective memory that black people are associated with slavery, menial jobs, and intellectual inferiority. Hurston argues that media have the power to solve this problem. Hurston writes: "It is assumed that all non-Anglo-Saxons are uncomplicated stereotypes. Everybody knows all about them. They are lay figures mounted in the museum where all may take them in at a glance. They are made of bent wires without insides at all. So how could anybody write a book about the non-existent?"

Similarly, in Cullen's short and poignant poem, the lady believes that even in heaven black people will be assigned the same kind of duty that they have on Earth, in her opinion. It's as if they aren't capable of doing anything else, nor are they entitled to anything else above that.
