1.) What is the significance of the
grandfather’s last words? Why does
the family react the way they do to
these words, and what effect do
they have on the narrator?
2.) Why are the boys forced to
watch the dancer? Why is this
experience so problematic for them?
3. Do you think there is symbolic
value to the fight? In other words,
what are the leading white men of
the town “accomplishing” by hosting
this event. Sure, they use it as a
source of entertainment, but is it
also used for something else? If you
choose this question, think about
class systems-
– what lengths will
the ruling class go to suppress the
lower class and why?
4.) What is the narrator’s speech
about? Why do the white elite like
both him and his speech?
