Question

3. Analyze Why does the writer include Freeman's

Answer 1

Answer:

Explain: the author includeds alexanders reaction to titus's death to show the ups and down of her challenge in becoming a free african american. the author does this to show how it was not easy but she was still able to push through it. for example in the text he states "and it was then you nearly gave up the gamble". which shows alexander almost lost faith throughout her journey. referring to "gamble" as her future. in the beginning of the text she says she likes gambling because it makes her feel as if her future had something bright in it that couldnt be stopped or taken away by white people.
