Black Buy
A word is just characters (letters) put together to make a meaning, statement, or idea. In the South, whites wanted power over the blacks, and the only form it came in was a word. By the first amendment the whites had power to use words, as did the journalist against the southern whites. Richard grows up learning about the south and how it demolishes others, and how it stabs him in the back by words. Richard at the age of four learns that words have an undeniable power behind and in front of them. Parents are our first source of knowledge, power, and style of living. They structure us (children) for today's world. Richard began his life without his mother and father's right hand. The mother never tried to be nice, or caring to him, and the father had to work at night. At home his is not expected to be a child, but a nothing. He is no supposed to run yell, even have fun. "He was the lawgiver in our family, and I never laughed in his presence." (16) Richard was playing with a cat, but his dad rest during the day. The cat would meow and purr, but the father told him to kill the damn cat. Richard did s
Whites expect gratitude and polite measures from the blacks at all times. He would make deliveries for the store and one day he got a flat tire on the bike. Richard works for an optical company, and across the street another boy named Harrison in the same field of job. 'Ain't you learned to say sir to a white man yet!'" (200) The whites always want to be referred to Sir or Mam. On the way north on the train, Richard realizes that he knows the south, and he is just beginning to learn it. A small tiny boy of four years old, had the left hand to learn that words have an undeniable power behind them. Richard really knew that the dad did not mean it, but he did it. Blacks have a life of pressure, no choice to do or not to do. He also knows he is not leaving it all behind. During the ride empty bottle did hit him, but never a white man. o, without having any feeling toward the cat. The word "sir" if said has the power to put down a black (for condolence to higher power), and if not said, it had the power to kill (for no condolence to higher power). That is not what happens, and they fight for blood (like a chicken fight).
