She says she will no longer be called Dee, she will be called “Wangero Leewanika Kemanjo”, because she “couldn't bear it any longer, being named after the people who oppress me" (348). Mama does not agree with the change, but she says she will respect her wishes. Dee then starts wanting different objects from around the house that she thinks carry the family’s heritage (349,350). When she starts to take quilts out of a chest Mama stops her saying that the quilts are for Maggie. Finally, Dee says that Mama doesn’t understand or care about her heritage, then leaves, and Mama and Maggie watch as she leaves

(Walker 721) Dee can’t understand the true meaning and significance of her name, passed along through four generations; therefore she doesn’t understand the significance of the quilts. The quilts are a symbol of pride and struggle and these objects have a value that Dee will never
Dee and Maggie’s behavior did not change throughout the story, but Mama’s attitude proves to be drastically transformed by the end. As Dee is introduced towards the beginning, the author implies that Maggie thinks “her sister has held life always in the palm of one hand, that ‘no’ is a word the world never learned to say to her”. However, while Dee and Mama argue over the quilts, Mama claims, “I did something I never had done before: hugged maggie to me, then dragged her on into the room, snatched the quilts out of Miss Wangero’s hands”. This action from Mama distinctly epitomizes her denial towards Dee.

1. Prior to this week’s assigned reading my understanding of nature was one that is ever expanding, with atoms at the core. Being science and mathematics nearly always come hand in hand, I related math to be an essential matter as well. Through our reading I found connections through Heraclitus, as he understood our world as one of fire “meaning there is always” change and flux. Condensing the entire world into one substance is quite brave as the world as we know and understand is composed of many elements and substances.
Asking questions about strategies and services use could cause students and colleagues to become defensive, because they may view it as questioning their commitment or abilities. Examining one’s own teaching practices can reveal flawed ideologies and practices. This discomfort can be further complicated by the formalization and examination of techniques used to collect and assess research data. Collection concerns include access to and cooperation by the participants. The time constraints and additional workloads caused by the data collection and analysis create other potential problems.

To be clear, we only have 30 tables on hand as a report of this morning. However, this is not our fault entirely. Six months ago, purchasing warned us about shrinking supplies and suggested we buy as much as we could in advance for the next 12 months. We tried to follow their advice, but we were never be able to buy supplies in advance due to company’s policy about never buying more than three months worth of materials in advance.
Culture is the string that connects groups of people with common values or norms. The most common type of culture is physical; things such as physical appearance, food, clothing, behavior, arts, literature, and music. A more abstract form of culture are things like values, beliefs, worldviews, principles, and ethical guidelines (Rubia Jovel, Karla, et al.)(1). One can see the evolution of humanity just by looking at a particular culture. But every day a little piece of culture dies out and humans get one step closer to a singular culture society.
In all, each individual and his or her culture should be respected because people are different in many ways, and we should accept that if we are to reap the benefits of
