“Human
is Human”
Human
is Human, “if a person cannot see similarities within every race they are ill.”
Morrison states: "There is a notion out in the land that
there are black people or Indians or some other marginal group, and if you
write about the world from that point of view, somehow it is considered
lesser." Rejecting anything other than full membership in humanity for
black people, she asserts her credo: "We are people, not aliens. We live,
we love, and we die."
Through all of the memories pity was something strong slaves
did not want. Pages 224 and 225 explain the power trip of white men in the
1800s. Sixo got caught stealing meat and got beat by his master after being
verbally abused and psychologically tortured. Temptation is not new, it has
existed before the creation of mankind, the earth, and before the assembly of
time.
Part two of the extreme literature by Toni Morrison page 246
and 247 explains how people look down on babysitting because of her children
being conceived by colored men. Those twisted slave owners look down on her,
but Morrison stated on page 247 that “she slaves not to have pleasurable
feelings on their own; the bodies not supposed to be like that, but they have
to have as many children as they can to please whoever owned them.”
(white men) it is funny how a person can call someone an
animal, not human, and a slave, but then have sexual intercourse with whom you
believe be is an unequal. Ancient is the time of slavery the days were time was
told by the sky’s and the cock’s crow. She holds
the tree on her back every whip connecting slavery history together as a family
tree. Ohio was not the place to be.
Beloved is she beloved is he who holds the key to sethe heart
and mind that think pass the pain of the baby calls. The handprints and evil
that scared her brothers away the questions were raised by notorious memory
tattooed on the soul without salvation.
The force of love and hate lived compelling, yet apprehensive
to comprehend until you are magically drifted into the world behind the text.
I never read such a dreamlike story of pure love, and absolute
opposite intertwined with a twisted dark side of horror and mental haunting. This
books challenge my ability to expand my writing techniques… Shot out to Mr. de
Wit’s English 4 class of 2013.
Much love
