=Connector:= There's a part on page 167 where Richard asks his grandmother what his grandmother was talking about and his grandmother slaps him! That can be connected to my life and several others, I'm sure, because my mother and grandmother have slapped me when I got too nosey. There's also another excerpt within the story on page 173 that really affected me. A lady asks Richard what he wants to be and he says a writer. She then proceeds to say that he'll never be that, and asks who put that idea into his 'nigger' head. Like Richard, I've been told several times that I can't do something. Debate is a great example. Believe it or not, people have doubted my skills! I've also experienced other people's doubt toward's me with my career choice. =Predictor= As Richard's life progresses, and he continues writing stories, I predict he will eventually become accepted and become famous. As cliche as that sounds, it'll more than likely happen.
