It’s really understandable that any person would have the mindset that Jefferson had if they knew that in no time they were going to die and having accusations made upon them that were not really true. I believe they should let him go to the Day room maybe that will help him open up more to Miss Emma.

I knew that Miss Emma would eventually find out that Grant was lying but what I don’t understand is why is she continuing to make him visit Jefferson when there is obviously nothing that he can do about it.

I am happy that they think nice of Vivian because I thought they would dislike her because of the color of her skin. Under any circumstances Vivian should not give up her religion to just be with a man who doesn’t even believe in what we call “God.”

Just like what Grant said I wouldn’t want to raise my children in a community like that because I would want my children to have a good life and a better education.

Personally I think that Grant should tell the truth because no lie is a good lie.

Many people deal with this situation which is “not believing in a God”. Not saying that there is anything wrong with but I believe that one should at least try to sit and kind try to understand it.

Towards the middle of chapter (11) I finally understood why Jefferson had been acting like that cause every since that man called him a “hog” that is all that he had thought about and when would they kill this “hog”.

What would Grant’s auntie get accomplished from this obviously they see that Grant doesn’t want to do this.

I just want to know many did the kids think that chopping wood was fun; i would’ve been scared that I would’ve chopped my leg off. How could you dislike someone based off how they look? That is something that I would never understand no matter how long I live.

I just don’t understand how you can hold a grudge on a person who is doing the best that they can to make the situation better and knowing that it could have consequences to come after it. I agree with Grant that he did go over the extent to make sure that those kids were perfect.

Grant always made sure that all the kids in his class had learned even if it was only for a short period of time. I don’t think i was really necessary for him to whoop the child because sometimes I have to count on my fingers to figure out a problem even when I do have a calculator.

I loved how Vivian wouldn’t just up and leave with Grant knowing that she would be leaving innocent children who actually have an opportunity to learn behind.

I believe it was very stupid of him to just sit there in that predicament instead of calling the police or take off. Yes I know that he was probably not the smartest but who would do such a slow thing like that. I agree with that the man is already dead and that there is not much that he could do about it because he is also a black and intelligent man and at that time they would think that he is insulting their intelligence so, it would possibly make it bad on his end of the deal. Hopefully, he is Mr. Henrie is able to help Jefferson become a man.
