Answer:
Bud Caldwell, who is christened “Sleepy LaBone” towards the end of the story, is the protagonist of Bud, Not Buddy. He is a resourceful, intelligent, and optimistic African American boy who has spent the last several years in an orphanage (which he calls the Home) and being shifted from foster home to foster home in Flint, Michigan. Despite losing his mother four years ago when he was just six years old, Bud remains optimistic that a new and better “door” is just around the corner for him to open. More than anything else, Bud wants a home and a family. It is what inspires him to leave the foster care system and run away from Flint to Grand Rapids. In the process, he learns to trust in the casual kindness of the strangers he meets on his way (like Lefty Lewis) and be open to being part of a community, like the one he finds in Hooverville with Deza Malone. The thing that keeps Bud going is his love for his mother, whom he refers to as Momma. His memories of her and the things of hers he’s collected in his suitcase all serve as a reminder and a hope for himself: that he was once loved and that one day someone will love him again. This is because the suitcase, in addition to carrying his mother’s things, carries flyers of a band he believes belongs to the man he thinks is his father: Herman E. Calloway. This hope of his father existing out there gives Bud the courage to look for him and make his dreams of having a family a reality. However, he soon discovers that family can take all sorts of different forms—his mother was Herman’s long-lost daughter, which makes Herman Bud’s grandfather, not his father, and the other members of the band aren’t related to Bud at all but become as fierce a family as any. Though it takes a while to win over Herman, Bud ultimately earns a place in the band (The Dusky Devastators of the Depression/Nubian Knights) and a home at last.
