Little Scarlet
This quiz is open book or open note IF the student can demonstrate he or she did the reading; they can prove this through annotations, highlights, and/or notes.
In the pages we read for today (50-148), we encountered even more situations were some of the big themes, or ideas, that we've been discussing in class arose. Select a passage or scene from the text (or from memory) that you believe exemplifies the importance of a 'big idea' we could bring into our class discussion. What happened in the scene, and why is it so significant? What is the 'big idea' behind the scene that you believe might also speak to some of the ideas or themes we've been discussing in this course? In short, how can we connect a scene from the novel involving Easy to some idea from Baldwin's The Fire Next Time? The Harlem riots? 1877?
