Ruth felt connected to black culture in Harlem because she was never part of a group where she felt welcomed. She would support the Civil Rights acts as if they were her own. On the other hand, she felt rather excluded from the people living in the South. As she had a growing family to take care of, she would be in need of family and financial support, but they would purposely shun her. At a young age, Ruth a practicing Jew was ridiculed and bullied by classmates who were gentiles. It affected her so much she changed her name so she could fit in more, “My real name was Rachel, … but I used the name Ruth around white folk, because it didn't sound so Jewish, though it never stopped the other kids from teasing me” (McBride 80). Her parents forced Judaism on her, causing her to resent religion; therefore, she converted to Christianity when she was an adult. This conversion helped rediscover herself and create a new relationship with God. Ruth’s adult life changed significantly from her life in Suffolk. She needed some relief after separating from her family so she embraced her new religion and found the relief in practicing Christianity. Lastly, Ruth had two integrated marriages that changed her life and brought out the best of her; unfortunately, both died and Ruth was a widow who had to raise and support

Secondly, Angela Morales has different school life, family relationships, and adulthood. According to the book “The Girl in My Town” by Angela Morales, she goes to Washington Elementary School that makes decision for the boys to do a job as dishwashers and does not allow girls to do it when the author states, “It seemed only right that if girls wanted to wash dishes at Washington Elementary School, they should be allowed to do so” (22). This makes the girls feel unfair that they only let the boys do dishwasher because the boys are more stronger than girls. The girls also want to help out by washing the dishes. In the book, Morales does not have a good relationship with her father because she does not spend time with his father or like him when the author

As time went on she became more involved in church, and religious activities. She got baptized and saved at the church that she always attended. She grew to love the black church that she grew up mocking. The old lady that always sat in the front row made her realize how deep the roots of her church were.

Angela's decision to pass caused her to sever her ties to her Black identity. Her Black identity included her sister, friends like Matthew, her town, hard working Black men and women, and her school. For example, “She had burned bridges behind her, had resigned from school, severed her connection with the academy, and had permitted an impression to spread that she was going West to visit...a distant cousin of her mother’s” (Fauset 82). Not only did she cut ties with people in her life, but she mislead them to ensure no one would know where to find her, other than her

Connie’s personality portrays her in a very negative way because all she cares about is her looks and boys, which is a common stereotype for women. This results in her mother favoring her older sister June for being a good girl and for not being as conceited as Connie. This also happens to be an archetype because Connie is so in love with herself, and it keeps popping up. She not only loves being the center of attention as well as drawing it to herself, but believes everyone is jealous and wants to be her. She is the way she is because in her mind “She knew she was pretty and that was everything” (Oates 1). Connie lets her looks get to her head and believes that since she’s so pretty she can treat people as if they are below her. For example, a boy from Connie’s school tried to talk to her, but she didn't like him. “It made them feel good to be able to ignore him” (Oates 6). Connie likes to feel as if she’s higher up and that she is better than those around her.

The movie “The Blue Angel” is a Drama film and as well as a music genre, after watching this movie, I can see the different positions play complete different roles which refers to Professor Immanuel Rath and cabaret performer Lola Lola. Everything had been changed when professor Rath find some of his students were addicted to the performance of Lola and he visited the club not on purpose. Even though, he got the chance to marry Lola, there were still a huge gap that can be avoided. I think if nothing happened after he found his students often went to club and he never met Lola, Professor Rath will still be a good professor in school.

Hazel suffered from egocentric righteousness that day, which is, “the natural tendency to feel superior in the light of our confidence that we are in the possession of THE TRUTH.” (Paul and Elder). Hazel’s entire life, everyone she knew and respected, every situation she was submersed in preached that desegregation was fundamentally wrong.
